35 THE RIDGEWAY

STOURPORT-ON-SEVERN WORCESTERSHIRE DY13 8XT

OPEN VIEWING : Saturday 21 January, 2017 10.30am – 12noon

DESCRIPTION - 35 The Ridgeway is a quality 3-bedroom detached house having been built for the Late owners in 1953 and now, therefore, to be sold for the very first time in 64 years which in itself stands as quite amazing testament to it! Before going on to describe the house itself then it should be clarified that a nuance to this particular property is that, albeit, it is called The Ridgeway, the house is actually accessed directly off Bewdley Road, which is crucial knowledge in that it would otherwise be impossible to find when visiting for the first time! Access is made via an unadopted road, the entrance to which can be found opposite the Dental Practice. This "tucked away" location probably goes some way to explaing the extra generous plot which the property enjoys and although the additional photographs give a good idea, they are not a substitute for actual inspection and the level of very valuable side amenity will surprise! Above and beyond the huge potential for extension and adaption, the plot is also extremely private and, hand-in-glove with that is also south west facing to the rear. Whilst requiring a degree of up-grading and re-fitting by modern tastes the property itself has been very well maintained over the years and would certainly, therefore, be ready for immediate occupation if required, having a modern distribution board protecting the electrical installation and also an almost brand new 'Ideal' combination boiler which was installed in just October, 2016. In general terms similar detached properties, with this degree of amenity, in this price bracket, and this side of the River, would be very difficult indeed to find and as such here is a particularly rare opportunity not to be missed and in the right hands, and fully contemporised, 35 The Ridgeway could be simply amazing! The property is offered for sale with the distinct advantage of no upward chain and BEST AND FINAL OFFERS ARE BEING SOUGHT, IN WRITING ONLY, BY 12NOON ON FRIDAY 27 JANUARY, 2017 - please see comments under the heading of "Agents Note".

(1) Offers should be made in writing only using a sealed envelope marked '35 The Ridgeway' and received by 12 noon on Friday 27 January 2017.

(2) Offers must be for a specific figure and expressed in pounds sterling. As a recommendation prospective purchasers are best advised to make their offer for an uneven sum – therefore not a round number - to avoid the possibility of identical bids. .

(4) Faxed or emailed offers will only be accepted by prior arrangement with the Selling Agents.

(5) The offer letter should clearly state the full name and address of the hopeful purchaser(s), together with details of

the Solicitor who will be acting on their behalf. If there is a related sale then details for your own Estate Agent will also be required and any ‘chain’ details would also be extremely helpful.
