A stunning example of a most spacious Grade II listed five bedroom attached Georgian residence, 1 Lower Farm Cottages, is situated in the popular village of Severn Stoke.

The village of Severn Stoke is situated within Croome Estate which was owned by the Coventry family between 1592 and 1948. The village name derives from the Old English ‘Stoc’, meaning a dependant farmhouse or secondary settlement, and when the Domesday Book was compiled in 1086 it was called Stoche. Lower Farm used to stand on the southern side of Birch Lane to the north of the village and the dwellings now called Lower Farm Cottages are situated on the corner of the A38 and Birch Lane, in close proximity to the farm. It is thought that the Georgian house which is now 1LFC was built in about 1735. It appears to have been constructed on the site of an earlier cottage as one of the interior walls has a timber frame. The extensions which now form 2LFC were built in the second half of the 19th Century. Although LF and LFC start off as distinct dwellings in the early part of this history they become increasingly interrelated. It is not possible to recount the story of LFC without also describing developments at LF.

The property briefly comprises entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, impressive open-plan kitchen/dining room/conservatory and downstairs cloakroom.

On the first floor is the master bedroom, further double bedroom, study area and bathroom.

On the second floor are three further bedrooms and family bathroom.

Outside the property benefits from gardens to front and rear and a generous driveway, providing off road parking for several vehicles.
