Vernon Park Road, St John's, Worcester, Worcestershire, WR2 4NF

A charming and rarely available 4 bedroom fine Victorian family home, built in 1897 in this much loved, tree lined street in St John's, Worcester.

This period home exudes charm and has the modern space that people desire. The owners have had over 25 happy years here, raised their children and are now only moving to downsize.

(No 15 is a generous 1805 sq ft or 167.7 sq m).

The sun filled and welcoming sitting room is a delight with a large bay window, a feature fireplace with shelving on each side and space for two comfy sofas.

The family room is an excellent space and has doors on to the garden.

With an arched feature fireplace, windows overlooking the garden it is open to the kitchen which I like and is perfect for relaxing and entertaining and for watching small children whilst in the kitchen.

The 19 ft kitchen is a great size and typical of its era. With an electric double oven and gas hob, plentiful cupboard space and room for a large fridge freezer and space for your dishwasher.

A very practical room ideal for small children and dogs.

There is a handy utility room off the kitchen accessed through glass doors where you will find space for your washing machine and dryer and a useful cloakroom.

I love Victorian homes and No 15 in particular as it is set in this quiet, no through road, despite being in the heart of town.

The rooms are characterful and well thought out and you can walk absolutely everywhere with ease.

As always I love a cellar in which to store everything that I don't want necessarily on display but want to quickly lay my hands on. Give me a cellar over a loft anyday!

Located underneath the dining room with light and power. The owners advise that it would be an ideal small renovation project or just simply use as storage.

Head upstairs, these are carpeted, to the large main bedroom with 2 front facing sun filled double glazed windows and space for large wardrobes of your choice.

Bedroom 2 is a fine large double with double glazed windows that overlook the pretty rear garden. Bed 3/home office is currently used as an office, could take a single bed and also has garden views.

There is a family bathroom close by with a claw foot white bath and a separate shower, a wc and a double glazed window to the side.

I feel that if you were to remove the carpets upstairs you would find the original floorboards and could expose any original flooring should you wish to.

That is all it would take to make this house perfect.

Head up to the top floor where you will find Bedroom 4, an ideal space for teenagers or anyone wanting some privacy, with great storage space within the eaves.

There is a useful white ensuite shower room with a dormer window.

GARDEN The good sized rear garden has been designed to make the most of the great British sun and has various areas designed to catch our errant and erratic sunshine.

The owners added a pretty summerhouse 4 years ago which has light and power and has been the perfect home office and relaxing garden room. Fruit trees and silver birches enhance the gardens privacy.

It is fully dog and child proof. There is a useful side gate which gives all important access to the front and rear and space here to place refuse bins out of sight.

The driveway has a useful dropped curb and is block paved providing parking for 2 cars.

No 15 is less than 15 minutes walk from Worcester town centre with beautiful walks along the River Severn and is an ideal location for growing families with many activities close at hand.

(The boiler is a Worcester Bosch added in (2018) that has been serviced annually) and the house is double glazed throughout.

*I always ask people to look at the floor plan to check sizes and to do a drive by to make sure that the house is just what you are looking for.* Vernon Park Road is a quiet residential location within walking distance of St.

John's, the 'Village in the City', with its convenient shops, schools and local amenities.
