Location & Description
The property enjoys a pleasant location on the eastern slopes of the Malvern Hills only a stones throw from open countryside and just over two miles south of the cultural and historic town of Great Malvern where there is a comprehensive range of amenities including shops and banks, Waitrose supermarket, the renowned theatre and cinema complex and the Splash leisure pool and gymnasium. The nearby neighbourhood of Barnards Green is even closer at hand and the house is well placed for access to an excellent choice of schools at both primary and secondary levels in both the state and private systems including Malvern Wells and The Wyche Primary, The Elms and The Downs Preparatory Schools in Colwall and at secondary level The Chase School, Malvern College and Malvern St James Girls School.

Transport communications are also good. There is a mainline railway station in Great Malvern itself and Junctions 1 of the M50 near Upton upon Severn and Junction 7 of the M5, south of Worcester are each within easy striking distance.

Situated as it is, close to open countryside the house is in the ideal spot for walkers and for access to the full range of the Malvern Hills and the Severn Valley.


The Garden House offers extremely generous and versatile, split level accommodation extending to almost 2000 sq.ft. On the ground floor an entrance porch leads to a reception hall from which two short separate flights of stairs lead to an upper and lower level. On the upper level is a large living room and a study that can double as a fifth bedroom. On the lower ground floor a second hall leads to a large kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, separate dining room, conservatory and cloakroom with WC.

The first floor is split in a similar manner with short flights of stairs leading from the landing to an upper level off which there are two bedrooms and separately to a lower level where there is the master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, a further bedroom and the family bathroom. The house also has gas fired central heating and double glazed windows and is offered with fitted carpets and curtains.

The house enjoys a pleasant approach initially across a driveway that serves both The Garden House itself and its neighbour known as The Stables. The private driveway can accommodate several vehicles and leads to a detached double garage. The mature landscaped garden provides a lovely setting and from certain parts of both the house and the garden there are views across the Severn Valley and towards the Hills.
