A beautifully refurbished detached farmhouse occupying a gated plot of approximately one third of an acre, nestled directly on the historic Kempsey Common and enjoying private grazing rights, extensive outbuildings and wonderfully characterful accommodation.

Set along a private farm track leading directly from Kempsey Common, Cornerstones offers an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully renovated farmhouse in one of Worcestershire's most sought-after rural settings. Combining timeless country charm with modern comfort, this exceptional four bedroom detached home enjoys an enviable position surrounded by open countryside, whilst remaining within easy reach of village amenities, excellent schooling and the motorway network.

The property sits within a secure gated plot extending to approximately one third of an acre and enjoys an abundance of character throughout. Exposed beams, inglenook style fireplaces and wood-burning stoves create a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfectly complementing the high-quality refurbishment undertaken by the current owners.

At the heart of the home lies a superb farmhouse kitchen, designed for family living and entertaining alike, complete with an impressive Aga-style range cooker and views across the garden. A spacious boot room provides the perfect practical solution for muddy dogs, walking boots and country living essentials.

The well-balanced accommodation offers four generous bedrooms alongside versatile reception space, retaining the charm and authenticity expected of a traditional Worcestershire farmhouse whilst delivering the comforts demanded by modern family life.

Outside, the property truly comes into its own. The gated gardens and grounds provide privacy and space, whilst the substantial double workshop offers excellent storage, hobby space or potential for a variety of uses subject to any necessary consents.

One of the defining features of Cornerstones is its direct access onto Kempsey Common, a vast area of traditional common land extending to approximately 300 acres. Rich in wildlife and steeped in local history, the common provides an idyllic setting for walking, riding and enjoying the natural environment.

Owners enjoy valuable grazing rights over the common, offering a unique opportunity for those wishing to keep livestock and embrace a genuine rural lifestyle. The combination of private ownership with access to such an extensive area of open countryside is exceptionally rare and highly desirable.

Kempsey Common is renowned for its open grassland, mature trees, wildlife habitats and network of footpaths, creating a wonderful extension to the property's own grounds.

Kempsey is widely regarded as one of Worcestershire's most desirable villages, offering an excellent blend of rural charm and everyday convenience. The village itself provides a strong community atmosphere together with a range of amenities including a village shop, public houses, church, sports clubs and community facilities.

Families are particularly well served by a selection of highly regarded local schools, whilst the Cathedral City of Worcester lies just a short distance away, providing a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and educational facilities.

For commuters, the property offers excellent connectivity. Junction 7 of the M5 motorway is easily accessible, providing convenient links north towards Birmingham and south towards Cheltenham, Gloucester and Bristol. Worcester Parkway Station also offers direct rail services to Birmingham, London and the wider national network.
