Summary

A super apartment with great proportions and plenty of sun light also overlooking the communal garden. Central location close to the shops, river and railway station.

A striking new collection of luxury 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments in a superb town centre location.

This iconic building at the Old Fire Station occupies a commanding and central position in Worcester that is unparalleled and is being transformed to combine a modern and unique lifestyle.

With stunning views across the city roof tops, walks along the River Severn, situated next to Worcester Cathedral and within easy access of the high street these really will make remarkable new homes.

The Old Fire Station, Copenhagen Street is a brand new development of luxurious 1, 2 & 3 bedroom apartments set in a premier location conveniently situated for the local amenities of Worcester including a bustling high street, great selection of restaurants, bars, coffee shops, cinema, Foregate railway station, all within easy access of the river for a gentle stroll.

No detail will be spared to bring you these fantastic apartments designed by renowned KKE architects, built by local developers Guthrie Roberts (who has an excellent reputation having built The Corner, Falconrest, Brunel House and The Cedars in Malvern) and finished by brilliant Elaine Lewis Designs.

Introducing personality and character into each apartment both KKE and Elaine Lewis have designed bold, contemporary apartments for all the new residents to enjoy. The Old Fire Station benefits from the character features that are generally lacking in modern buildings including high ceilings, tall windows, proud chimneys, and solid construction. It really will be a magnificent transformation!

With it's carefully considered blend of brick, copper, cedar and glass this landmark development will reflect a reputation for quality, innovation and the finest attention to detail. Every apartment will be spacious and sun filled to complement a designer specification to provide exceptional homes with a welcoming atmosphere and the perfect place to relax or entertain.

There are two lifts at The Old Fire Station so this fantastic development with a total of 28 apartments (25 in the main building and 3 in the annexe) will suit any age group.

The apartments are all immensely charming and in some way vary in layout or have individual features.

For example some have 10ft tall ceilings with 7ft high double glazed sash windows. Some have outside private decks. Some are curved. However, all will be private, quiet and fantastic!

The building is solid, bomb proof apparently, with walls at least 2ft thick so you will not be bothered by noise from neighbouring apartments.

Sizes and therefore prices vary too. There is absolutely something fabulous for everyone....

Please have a look at the developer's most recent project at The Cedars in Malvern WR14 2RW. All sold now but this will give you a great idea of the innovation and high standard of finish to expect.
You will be able to see first hand why I deem this developer to be one of the best in the area.

Also, feel free to call us and discuss what you hope to find and buy at the Old Fire Station. I know which apartments have green views, or hallways, or tall ceilings and elegant windows, or direct access to the city garden, or which receive the most sun light, or have the most storage...

We at ChocolateBox are passionate about selling beautiful houses and apartments. We have previously worked with this developer Guthrie Roberts for nearly 8 years. He is ex-army and pays crucial attention to detail! He strives for perfection and that is why I am proud to continue working for him.

Please call to RESERVE TODAY...

Worcester is a wonderful city and offers everything that you could possibly wish to have.

Sport is well represented with rugby, cricket, basketball and horse racing.

Live music, theatre and touring comedians can be seen at the Guild Hall. And not forgetting a M&S food hall a stone's throw away...

The Old Fire Station was designed by the architect Sir Percy Thomas OBE and constructed between 1939 and 1941; he designed lots of civic buildings including the police station opposite (not currently used as a police station but retaining all the charm)
