No.'s 15 & 16 The Tything
These classic terraced buildings form part of the historic Tything street scene in the middle of Worcester City, located in a Conservation area. The properties have existing use as offices (Class E) but are suitable for reversion to their original residential status, subject to suitable consents. A Pre-Panning Advice Application has been submitted to Worcester City Council regarding the potential to subdivide into 2 or 3 dwellings (ref 23/00522/PA). The Grade II Listed buildings are believed to date from the 18th Century in their current form, but are likely to be much older with stucco-ed frontage and sash windows being an earlier restoration following damage during the Civil War around 1650. An impressive central staircase looks to have Tudor origins. These buildings have latterly been used for business occupation but offer great potential for residential use, as larger dwellings or several smaller units, each subject to the relevant permissions being obtained.

The property benefits from a single garage off Surman Street. * The property has most recently been used as offices and will require some reconfiguration and modernisation to suit residential use. * There is excellent potential to create a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom dwelling with home office plus generous cellar storage space. * Whilst there will only be pedestrian access to the rear, the property is offered for sale with a single garage close to the rear of the property.

No. 16 The Tything
* A larger plot and building than No 15 but with similar street frontage, a painted stucco exterior under a clay tiled roof, with access both front and rear. Parking for several vehicles is provided to the rear with vehicular access off Surman Street. * This is an historic building with Doric-styled doorcase and sash windows, laid out over three floors plus attic rooms, cellar storage and open parking to the rear. * A rear wing lends itself to providing separate accommodation, or an annexe, and this potential is being investigated under the Pre-Planning Application, as noted previously. * This property oozes character with a major feature being the historic central staircase leading to all floors. * As with No 15, the property has latterly been used as offices and will require some reconfiguration and modernisation to suit residential use. * A significant floor area of some 4,265 sq ft provides ample space and opportunity to create a generous home.
