2 bedroom house

This is a rare chance to own a truly unique and magical island where you can unwind and leave the outside world behind. Osier Island is a wonderful wildlife haven. At twilight, you can watch the barn owl hunting through the mist over the fields, marvel as the kingfishers flash past, dive for fish, and see hares frolicking in the opposite meadows.

The charming Osier Lodge is a timber dwelling on a raised platform above the level of any flood waters. There has been a dwelling on the island since the early 1940's. There are several boat moorings. The veranda commands a spectacular southerly vista over the river and open countryside towards the wooded slopes of Bredon Hill in the distance—the best view for miles.

N.B. There is no vehicular or pedestrian access to the property. Access is by boat only and strictly by appointment with the selling agents.

Osier Island is situated on a navigable stretch of the River Avon approximately a quarter of a mile upstream and southeast of the village of Wyre Piddle. The village provides two pubs, a village hall, and a marina. There is a thriving social scene with community-led activities and live music and entertainment most weekends at the hotel.

Slightly further afield is the bustling Georgian market town of Pershore, with its colourful variety of small shops, a busy marketplace, tea rooms and waterside pubs. There are also several supermarkets, a leisure centre, primary and secondary schools, Doctors' surgeries, a hospital and a train station providing a direct train to London Paddington (1hr 51m).

More comprehensive facilities can be found in the cathedral city of Worcester, nine miles away, which caters for most needs. There are extensive shopping and recreational facilities, including county cricket in the setting of Worcester Cathedral and horse racing on the banks of the River Severn.

Trains run directly from Pershore Station to London Paddington and Birmingham. Motorway access is via junction 7 of the M5, about eight miles away.
