Situation The Old Vicarage occupies a fantastic position nestling in the lee of the spectacular Malvern Hills; celebrated for their outstanding natural beauty. Tucked away within the desirable residential area of Malvern Wells, just south of Great Malvern, this elegant house is conveniently placed for excellent amenities and good road/rail links (with a regular service to London, Paddington) and renowned schooling. Hereford, Worcester, Cheltenham and Birmingham are also within easy travelling distances.
The Old Vicarage * The Old Vicarage is a substantial and yet homely, Victorian house, formerly a vicarage dating from 1876, complemented by impressive period characteristics.
* The property has retained a wealth of original features, including super tiled flooring in the spacious main entrance hall and rear hall, floor boards and fireplaces. There are wonderfully high corniced ceilings, large stone mullion windows and the property is spacious and light throughout.
* A generous, open plan kitchen/breakfast room forms the heart of this welcoming home, and with its 4-oven Aga, ample storage, central island and charming window seats is perfect for family and informal social gatherings. There is an excellent range of fitted, stripped pine store cupboards which complement the main kitchen and are a remnant of the property's history, cleverly incorporated to provide plenty of space. A boot room, laundry room and WC are accessed off the rear entrance hall which also provides access to the cellar, garden and garage.
The Old Vicarage (Continued) * There are 3, very spacious reception rooms; a stunning formal dining room with working open fire, an adjoining sitting/TV room accessed via lovely, original stripped pine sliding doors. The double aspect drawing room is open and light with a feature archway above a large and beautiful bay window.
* A striking and attractive staircase with an impressive stone archway leads to the galleried landing on the first floor, where there are 4 5 large double bedrooms; 3 of which are en-suite plus a family bathroom. One of the rooms is used as a spacious office, perfect for home working, but could easily be allocated as a 5th bedroom. A secondary stairway returns to the rear hallway.
* A further staircase from the landing leads to the second floor, where there are 2 further attic bedrooms and a shared shower room, plus a good storage cupboard on the landing. These rooms offer versatile accommodation and lend themselves to a variety of uses such as playrooms, teenage living, home work space or further storage.
The Outside * The property is approached off a quieter residential road via a gated entrance. There is ample vehicular parking and a secondary, secure parking courtyard area in front of a detached, timber double garage.
* The Old Vicarage sits centrally within its plot and is surrounded by established gardens, including a manageable lawn area and a secluded patio terrace, perfect for morning coffee through to seasonal dining.
* The garden is planted with a variety of mature shrubs, including lavender, hydrangea and fuchsia, attractive specimen trees and offers further scope for keen gardeners.
* There is a useful, attached external store/boiler room beside the rear door, within the courtyard, the latter is brick paved and accessed via double gates from the main gravelled drive. This courtyard is a fabulous sun trap and a great entertaining space.
* The large, detached timber double garage offers a flexible space for additional uses, such as a workshop or studio (subject to any necessary permissions), and/or great storage.
