“We have enjoyed living on St John’s Avenue immensely. We brought this house as a young couple and have raised our family here, making it into a home.
The South facing garden has allowed us to enjoy it from breakfast until dinner without having to chase the sun, and the open plan kitchen has seen some wonderful gatherings. The house is both light and open in the summer and warm and cosy in winter.
The four big bedrooms have meant that our children have never fought about who got which room and the proximity to town means we often walk to the shops.
We are sad to be leaving, but hope another family will love it here as much as we have.”

Kidderminster
The largest of the three towns in the Wyre Forest District of North Worcestershire, Kidderminster lies 17 miles southwest of Birmingham and 15 miles north of Worcester, with a main railway line connecting to both of these cities. As the main retail hub of the district, Kidderminster has a number of shopping centres including the Swan Centre, the Rowland Hill Centre, Crossley Retail Park and Weaver’s Wharf Retail Park.
The River Stour and Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal both run through the town centre on their way to join the River Severn at Stourport, with much of the recent redevelopment of the town centre quite rightly recognising the value of these waterways and increasing their prominence, such as at Riverside Walk next to Weavers Wharf, where a number of pavement cafés, restaurants and bars sit alongside the riverbank.
