Situation Earls Croome is a village and parish falling within the Malvern Hills District, south of the City of Worcester and east of Malvern, mentioned in the Domesday Book in 1086 as Crumba. Surrounded by attractive Worcestershire countryside, farmland and areas of woodland, the property is situated in an accessible rural location with good road and rail links to the larger towns and cities, and a direct line from Pershore to London Paddington in 2 hours.
Apple Meadows * This comfortable detached country home originates from a period property but was remodelled in the 1990's to create a spacious contemporary home, making the most of the large garden and fine views.
* 4 double bedrooms are accessed from an airy landing with a smart family bathroom to the front of the house.
* The main, triple aspect bedroom overlooks the garden and land and has fine views to Bredon Hill. There is a generous en-suite, built in wardrobes and a dressing area.
* The entrance hall opens to 2 reception rooms, an office, a snug/study, a WC and rear utility room.
* An impressive fitted kitchen forms the heart of this home with the 4-oven Aga taking centre stage. A large central island, fitted cupboards and built in dining area make for an easy living environment.
* The kitchen opens east to a large conservatory which in turn opens onto the lawned garden and ornamental pond. This room helps make the kitchen a light and enjoyable living space.
The Outside * The main domestic entrance is gated to enhance privacy and a double garage is located opposite the house, backing on to the brick built stable block.
* The large garden stretches east of the house, down to a fenced, hard surface tennis court. Beside this is a wooded wildlife area with timber play castle and children's adventure area.
* Farmland surrounds this property with Breden Hill providing a focal vista.
* This property is well placed with good access to arterial routes, the M5 nearby and principal towns and cities.
Equestrian Facilities * This property is all about the outside and is most suited to equestrian enthusiasts. There are impressive equestrian facilities to hand, a large, gravelled yard with separate vehicular access and several substantial portal framed modern barns providing good scope for many uses.
* The stable yard is adjacent to and visible from the house, with a small turnout pen and 2 wooden stables in front of the brick built stable block, which provides 3 generous stables and a secure tack room.
* Beyond the stables is a very useful wooden lodge (375 sq ft), currently a personal office but offering great flexible use with power 4G internet connection.
* A standard sized arena (20m x 40m) with sand and fibre surface sits immediately beyond the stable yard and in front of the paddocks. There are lights fitted (with planning consent). A large stone surfaced yard behind provides excellent and spacious access for large vehicles, machinery and lorries.
Equestrian Facilities (Continued) * The pasture is divided into 7 paddocks which are post and rail fenced, with several having access to field shelters (included at guide price).
* At the far end of the yard are two substantial portal frame, modern agricultural barns, providing some 5,800 sq ft of covered space. The first barn has full height roller shutter doors providing a secure storage area and workshop space for half of the building. The remainder is part enclosed with in/out access and a concrete/stoned floor. The second barn also has in/out access with sheeted/part concrete walls and a concrete floor. There is ample hard surface yard space in front of these barns.
