House For Sale £860,000
A magnificent historical property in the heart of Worcestershire with stunning countryside views
Description
Located on the outskirts of the town in the village of West Malvern, Beacon Lodge has recently been updated and modernised by the current owner. Set in superb, landscaped gardens with a detached studio apartment this family home is offered with no onward chain.
Approached via a sweeping driveway providing ample parking for numerous vehicles there is a delightful terrace area to the front with views sweeping across the county.
Entering the property via the main front door to the rear you are welcomed into the delightfully bright hallway with polished parquet flooring and doors to the main reception rooms, kitchen, and guest cloakroom.
The dual aspect principal reception room boasts high ceilings, cornicing, picture rails, wooden flooring, an elegant open fire place with stone tiles and wooden surround, and French doors opening to the lavender framed terrace beyond. The doors have been fitted with traditional picture window shutters.
The separate dining room features a large bay window with a custom built seat allowing you to take in the views of the surrounding countryside. High ceilings, cornicing, picture rails and wooden flooring add to the impact of this room.
The hallway leads seamlessly to the dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room which has a grand open brick built fireplace and has plenty of space for a table and chairs.
Fitted with original quarry tiles and a range of traditional style wooden wall and floor units topped with a black granite worksurface and the peninsular breakfast bar has a sink built-in.
Integrated appliances include a four ring hob, oven and dishwasher and a door leads through to the incredibly generous boot and utility room, perfect when returning from long walks with wet dogs. With ample space for additional white goods, there is a unique food storage area and a secret stair case that leads directly to bedroom four.
Upstairs the layout is quite unique with a large galleried landing, four bedrooms, a family bathroom and a Jack and Jill en suite shower room shared by bedrooms three and four.
Bedroom one is a generous dual aspect double, with sash windows and access to the large and luxurious family bathroom. Fitted with a bathtub and separate corner shower cubicle, vanity wash basin and WC.
Bedroom two another double with a sash window looking out across the front. It also has a built in storage cupboard.
Bedroom three is a large dual aspect double, with sash windows and access to the Jack and Jill shower room shared with bedroom four.
Bedroom four is another double with sash windows and a secret staircase leading down to the utility room.
Outside
The gardens are simply exquisite, designed and thoughtfully laid out to encapsulate the surrounding views.
Formerly a swimming pool dating back to when the house was a school, the property still retains the original changing rooms that over look a well stocked pond and provide the perfect covered space to enjoy the views, a place from where to paint or to do yoga.
A detached pretty brick studio with WC is ideal for an artist or for those working from home. Subject to planning this could make a stunning holiday cottage or annex accommodation.
A lawned area leads to a raised viewing deck where you can capture the evening sun. There is also ample parking for several vehicles.
Location
Malvern is an exceptionally popular location offering a wide range of local amenities from supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, exceptionally good schools, the famous Malvern theatre and of course the superb walking over the hills and surrounding countryside. Malvern offers the best of both worlds with is rural surrounds and excellent transport links to the motorway and train stations.
