The front

On the side, gated access leads to the rear garden, offering a secure and private transition from the front to the back of the property.
The living room
As you enter the property through the covered entrance, an inviting hallway awaits, providing access to the ground floor accommodation. On the left of the hallway, the spacious living room is perfect for entertaining or relaxing.
It includes windows to the front aspect and a feature fireplace.

The heart of the home is the kitchen dining room, equipped with a full range of wall and base units, modern appliances and a walk-in pantry. It includes a one-and-a-half bowl sink and drainer and offers ample space for culinary activities. Adjacent to the kitchen, the utility room provides additional storage and space for appliances, with a door leading to the integrated garage.
The dining area extends beautifully out to the garden through French windows, enhanced by two Velux skylights allowing for ample natural light.
The snug
Accessible from both the kitchen and living room, the snug offers adaptable space ideal for a study, playroom, or cosy retreat, with garden access via a sliding patio door.
The master bedroom
The first floor landing has loft access, a large storage/airing cupboard and doors leading to the stylishly refitted bathroom and five bedrooms. On the right of the landing is a large bedroom with an impressive, vaulted ceiling. Windows to the front and a Velux window to the rear with a remote-controlled blind ensure the room is well-lit and airy.
The ensuite bathroom
Adjoining the master bedroom is this modern en-suite, featuring a white suite that includes a low-level WC, washbasin and corner bath with a shower overhead.

The garden
The enclosed rear garden is a private oasis with a lawn, a patio for outdoor dining and vibrant well-stocked borders. Gated access ensures privacy and security, making it a perfect space for relaxation and entertainment.
Agent’s note
The 2.5 kw solar array installed at 36 Shire Way in March 2012 is part of a 25-year government grant incentive scheme. Over the next 12 years and 10 months (as of June, 2024) the financial return from the scheme is projected to be around £24,323. This total includes Feed-in Tariff payments based on an average annual production of 2,208 KWh, calculated at a current tariff rate of 74.385p/KWh, which sums to £21,077.
Additionally, assuming 50% of the energy is self-consumed and the rest is exported, savings from using the solar power instead of drawing from the grid, given the current rate of 23.84p/KWh in the West Midlands, are estimated at £3,246. This forecast accounts for both the payments received for the energy generated and the cost savings from reduced energy purchases.

Positioned on the main A38 route between Birmingham and Bristol, the town is also conveniently close to the M5 and M42 motorways, making it an ideal location for commuters.
Additionally, Droitwich Spa’s railway station, just outside the town centre, offers regular train services to major cities including Birmingham and Worcester, and connects to the Western main line for easy travel throughout the UK. This blend of historical significance and modern accessibility makes Droitwich Spa a unique and desirable place to live.

The fee will be retained by Andrew Grant in the event that you the buyer withdraws from the purchase or does not Exchange within 6 months of the fee being received other than for one or more of the following reasons:
1. Any significant material issues highlighted in a survey that were not evident or drawn to the attention of you the buyer prior to the Memorandum of Sale being issued.
2. Serious and material defect in the seller’s legal title.
3. Local search revealing a matter that has a material adverse effect on the market value of the property that was previously undeclared and not in the public domain.
4. The vendor withdrawing the property from sale.
The reservation fee, equivalent to 0.5% of the accepted offer, is payable upon acceptance by the vendor of an offer from a buyer and a positive completion of an assessment of the buyer’s financial status and ability to proceed.
Should a buyer’s financial position regarding the funding of the property prove to be fundamentally different from that declared by the buyer when the Memorandum of Sale was completed, then the Vendor has the right to withdraw from the sale and the reservation fee retained. For example, where the buyer declares themselves as a cash buyer but are in fact relying on an unsecured sale of their property.
Once the reservation fee has been paid, any renegotiation of the price stated in the memorandum of sale for any reason other than those covered in points 1 to 3 above will lead to the reservation fee being retained. A further fee will be levied on any subsequent reduced offer that is accepted by the vendor. This further fee will be subject to the same conditions that prevail for all reservation fees outlined above.
