Sevington farmhouse is found in a peaceful and tranquil setting within the village of Acton Beauchamp and is ideally situated for exploring the best of what Herefordshire and Worcestershire have to offer. The historic and thriving market towns of Bromyard, which is approximately 5 miles distance, and Malvern (8 miles) offer a wonderful range of independent shops, schooling, medieval churches, community hospital, and leisure facilities, with the cathedral cities of both Hereford (14 miles) and Worcester (14 miles) being within easy commuting distance. Excellent rail links to Birmingham New Street and to London Paddington will be found via either location, whilst access to the motorway network, via junction 7 of the M5, and Junction 2 of the M50 are easily accessed.

Sevington is believed to date back to the late 18th century in part, constructed from local quarry stone, and has been extended during the Georgian and Victorian periods to offer spacious and versatile family accommodation. Set within a clutch of renovated barns, this property forms half of the striking farmhouse, within a community that enjoys the privilege of living in such a beautiful and peaceful spot. Entering through a half glazed door that is bordered with pediment and pilasters, onto York flagstones in the magnificent hallway, the Georgian oak staircase creates the focal point with ample space to place a grandfather clock, reading chair or desk at which to study. From a discreet doorway beneath the staircase, a short flight of steps lead to the vast cellars beneath the ground floor rooms. The living room encapsulates the elegance found at Sevington, with high ceilings presenting decorative cornicing, picture and dado rails, high skirting and large picture window. There is a marble fireplace with an oil fired stove inset, ideal for those cosy nights gathered by the fire, whilst a piano that could easily be accommodated in this room is played. The dining kitchen is found on the opposite side of the hall. There is an array of fitted bespoke pine units, and the sash windows - complete with original shutters have been kept naked so that the warmth of the woodwork blends together beautifully. There is space for an Aga that is placed within the dining area with ancillary space for a table and chairs and an American style fridge freezer. The utility area may be found within the hall and has shelving to the sides, allowing space for a washing machine to be housed there. From the entrance hall, the oak stairs rise to the first floor landing, this is an impressive space in which to display fine pieces of furniture, or simply to sit and observe the beauty of your surroundings through the large window looking out to the West. There are three bedrooms, and a large family bathroom. The third bedroom is found beyond an inner hallway that has been fitted out with built-in storage cupboards and deep shelving. This light filled room with a bay window that mirrors that found in the kitchen below, has a bespoke bookcase with storage cupboards under, and a working cast iron fireplace with the original floorboards shown for all to appreciate. The remaining two king sized bedrooms are a replica of one another in size, the only differing element being a striking Victorian fireplace, where the second has an open hearth, both benefit from outstanding views beyond the large windows. The first that you reach upon the landing has been decorated in grand style with a four-poster bed set at its centre with flowing drapes and harmonizing decor. The family bathroom again has an immense amount of natural daylight flooding through the large shuttered window, and has room enough for a shower enclosure to be added should it be desired. As you wander around this refined and gracious house, your eyes are unavoidably drawn to the gardens and the beauty of the surroundings.

Sevington benefits from having substantial gardens approaching half an acre. Flower beds gently follow the curves of the lawn immediately at the front of the property, and contain a multitude of planting. This area is enveloped by a stone wall that borders the circular driveway that allows access to the main entrance from two directions. Mature trees are also in abundance and include Horsechestnut, Holly and two Larch Firs, that were planted to celebrate the return of the Masters son returning safely from the First World War. As well as an amazing Monkey Puzzle tree to the side of the house that you may look onto from the bedrooms placed on the East side. Tucked away to the side of the main garden lies the comprehensive vegetable gardens, a detached double garage, and two professional sized greenhouses, which have water and power.
