Location & Description
The property enjoys a convenient position in the popular village of Ryall, less than a mile from the busy, historic riverside town of Upton upon Severn where there is a comprehensive range of amenities including shops, sub-Post Office, church, medical centre and schools. The town is well known for its tourist industry and summer festivals and for its famous riverside Marina. The larger towns of Malvern (eight miles), Worcester (ten miles) and Tewkesbury (six miles) are all within close proximity, as is Junction 1 of the M50 motorway which is approximately three miles away. There are mainline railway stations in Worcester and Malvern.

Leafields is a traditional two storey detached house, originally believed to date back to the 1800's but which has been extended in more recent years. The property requires full renovation and refurbishment but its generous accommodation offers the perfect canvass for buyers to re-shape and transform into a fine contemporary home.

The great strength of the house is its wonderful setting and location in almost 1.30 acres of mature, treelined landscaped garden which also enjoys approximately 160 feet of riverside frontage onto the banks of the River Severn with the added bonus of fishing, mooring and riparian rights. The property does not flood and from its elevated position the lovely westerly aspect provides spectacular views across the river, Upton upon Severn and the full range of the Malvern Hills. Most evenings fine sunsets behind the Malvern Hills can be enjoyed from the house.

The two storey accommodation has an oil fired central heating system and double glazing. It currently comprises an entrance lobby, dining hall, sitting room, lounge (with an attic room above), conservatory, kitchen/breakfast room, shower room with WC, three bedrooms (the principal one of which has its own external balcony and en-suite shower/dressing room) and a separate family bathroom with WC.

A long driveway leads to a wide driveway that provides extensive private parking and opens to a carport. The gardens are mainly laid to lawns with mature borders, numerous trees and a useful workshop/garden store.

Directions
From Upton upon Severn proceed east over the river along the A4104. A few hundred yards after passing over the river turn right towards Ryall. Continue along this route for approximately quarter of a mile where, as the road begins to bear sharply to the left (and just after the turn to Ryall Meadow) turn right into Ryall Lane. This forks in two directions. Take the right hand fork continuing to the very end. Ignore the left turn into Ryall Hill House and instead continue straight on down the private driveway that leads to Leafields.
