Vendor View: Known locally as 'Little Switzerland', The Lickey's boasts beautiful scenery in the winter months and its the most tranquil setting for long,chilly walks. Its just as stunning in the summer months too. We purchased this character property for its fabulous ' location location location'. Situated on the top of Rose Hill, Lickey, it is an idyllic and picturesque setting. Its perfect for long walks centred around nature, yet close to all the amenities we require, so it really is the best of both worlds here. We wanted a home and business and knew with vision and a lot of very hard work; it would be all that and much more. We favour older, more traditional building and embarked on an extensive refurbishment and redevelopment project which has given it contemporary functionality whilst still retaining the traditional character and charm. We kept the original features where possible, including the beautiful staircase. Bi fold doors bring the garden indoors and creates a great space ideal for relaxing and entertaining. We enjoy al fresco dining on the decking area which is extremely private and offers views down to the end of the garden and the roses and honeysuckle. There are different seating areas to make the most of the sun and we enjoy sunbathing on the loungers on the decked area or relaxing with friends and family on the lower patio area. The kitchen diner is ideal for socialising and day to day life, whilst sitting room offers a cosy retreat in the winter months when the open fire is lit. The conservatory/sunroom is another popular room as its filed with natural light. It has a lovely Mediterranean feel to it and has a really uplifting vibe. The upstairs rooms are full of quirky little spaces and the double bedrooms are a great size. We currently use the space in the loft as a dressing room, but it could also be used as a home office. We have loved the journey here but it is time for us to expand our businesses so we need larger premises in the local area. We are positive that the new owners will enjoy the life style, the business opportunity and the lovely home afforded by this absolute gem.
