The Tything

A classic terraced building forming part of the historic Tything street scene in the middle of Worcester City, located in a Conservation area. The property has existing use as offices (Class E) but is suitable for reversion to the original residential status, subject to suitable consent. A Pre-Panning Advice Application has been submitted to Worcester City Council regarding the potential to convert to a dwelling (ref 23/00522/PA). The Grade II Listed building is believed to date from the 18th Century in it's current form, but is likely to be much older with stucco-ed frontage and sash windows being an earlier restoration following damage during the Civil War around 1650. This property has latterly been used for business occupation but offers great potential for residential use, reverting to a private dwelling, subject to the necessary permissions being obtained.

No.15 The Tything

Originally part of a pair with No 14 (separate ownership), this property has a narrow frontage to The Tything, but provides a generous floor area at nearly 2,000 sq ft.
A Tuscan-styled pilaster doorcase opens from the painted stucco exterior under a clay tile roof, access is provided from both front and rear. 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.
