Seller Insight
Tucked away in a beautiful pocket of the countryside, this remarkable home has been a treasured haven for its current owners, who describe their time here simply: “We’ve enjoyed every second of the last eight years in this very special home.” And it’s easy to see why.
With its expansive, wraparound garden, thoughtfully designed interiors and far-reaching views over fields dotted with grazing cows, this home offers a lifestyle that many dream of but few find. It’s the kind of place where neighbours still lend a cup of sugar over the wall, where children have room to run free, and where each sunset is more breathtaking than the last.
The setting is as peaceful as it is picturesque. From spring through to late summer, the neighbouring field comes alive with cows—a favourite feature for the owners’ young daughters, who never miss the chance to wish them goodnight. “The garden is completely enclosed and private,” they share, “and it gives the girls so much freedom to run around.”
With an ‘L’ shaped design, the garden captures sunshine morning to evening—perfect for laid-back breakfasts, afternoon play, and unforgettable evenings with friends around the barbecue.
Inside, the house is filled with light and clever touches. Every principal room opens out to the garden, making the indoors feel inextricably linked to the landscape. “Natural light floods in at any time of day,” the owners say. “That’s one of our favourite things about the house.”
The layout is especially well-suited to modern family life. Children have their own wing upstairs—complete with bedrooms and a bathroom—while parents can enjoy the privacy of a peaceful ground floor ensuite. There’s even a separate staircase leading to a guest suite with a large bathroom and walk-in shower, offering a sense of calm and space for visiting friends or family. “It means everyone can enjoy their own space,” the owners explain, “which is especially helpful with young children.”
Over the years, the family has made several thoughtful improvements to the home. A larger patio area now sets the stage for long summer evenings, and exterior lighting has been added throughout the garden and driveway for added atmosphere and safety. A new internal door links the lounge with the garage—ideal for coming home from countryside walks or cycling adventures. Inside the garage, a Belfast sink and washing machine make light work of muddy boots and outdoor gear.
Now, the family is moving on to follow their daughters’ growing love of ponies and country life with stables. “If we could take this house with us, we absolutely would,” they say. “But now it’s ready for the next family to fall in love with.”*

Droitwich Spa (5.5 miles) is a historic town within the Wychavon district of northern Worcestershire, on the banks of the River Salwarpe. Droitwich shopping is mainly focused in the traditional town centre around Victoria Square, leading to the St Andrew’s Square shopping centre and down to the original High Street, with its local pubs and an eclectic mix of traditional shop.
