Summary
A charming country cottage located within the small hamlet of Withybed Green with great views, community spirit and a superb extended plot totalling 0.12 acres (approx).

The ground floor accommodation comprises an extended living room enjoying a wood burning stove, formal dining room and a modern kitchen with garden access. 

The first floor features two double bedrooms (the front facing room enjoying delightful views) as well as a contemporary house bathroom accessed via bedroom 2 with stunning open countryside views.

The wonderful rear garden and outside amenities are one of the many highlights of the property. The outside is a haven of tranquility and natural beauty featuring a patio entertaining area with steps ascending to a grassed area continuing round in an 'L-shape' to a further lawn with an array of fruit trees. The rear garden adjoins open fields managed ecologically by a local farmer.

The superb bespoke cabin is a fantastic addition to the garden, serving as an inviting space to host guests, socialise with friends, family and neighbours and hold intimate gatherings. The accommodation features an enclosed porch, lounge area with wood burning stove, separate room suitable as a kitchenette with shower and WC as well as a double bedroom off the lounge with french doors to the garden. 

The driveway at the front provides parking for two vehicles in tandem. 

Location
'Rear Cottages' is a quiet and safe single track lane (no through road) within the small hamlet of Withybed Green within walking distance from canal side walks and village gem - the 'Crown Inn'. Just 0.8 miles brings within reach the bustling centre of Alvechurch, train station and excellent schools including Crown Meadow First School and Alvechurch C of E Middle School. Local village shops include a medical centre, dentist, chemist, library, co-op supermarket, deli, pubs and cafes. Also, nearby are the facilities offered by both Barnt Green village (2.0 miles), Bromsgrove (6.2 miles), Redditch (4.8 miles) and Birmingham (12.2 miles).

The Worcester and Birmingham Canal connected the Black Country to the sea by providing a link to the River Severn, opening trade routes to the world. The canal bustled with barges carrying freight in and out night and day. Nowadays tourist boats keep the canals busy. The route is also well renowned with walkers. The route is 30 miles long (recommended over two days) and has a total of 58 locks including the 30 Tardebigge Locks, one of the largest lock flights in Europe.
