Description: This incredible home was built in the early 1990s as a residential dwelling. Up until recently, the property has been operating as a care home for young children. The accommodation has been adapted to suit this multiple-person living and now presents a wonderful opportunity to refurbish and restore back to a fabulous home. The property sits on the slopes of Dindore Hill and enjoys commanding, elevated views across the city and countryside. The main residence is an impressive, four-bedroom, detached home that is complemented by an additional three-storey annexe. The annexe currently consists of six bedrooms. The grounds extend to approximately 1.5 acres in total and offer a sweeping driveway that surrounds the home with a double garage located at the rear of the main building.
