187 Wells Road, Malvern, Worcestershire, WR14 4HE

Attractive, light and airy apartment with stunning views set within May Place in Malvern Wells. Forming part of a Grade II listed building with entrance hall, two good sized double bedrooms, kitchen/breakfast room, sitting room with bay window and enviable tall ceilings, large bathroom, single GARAGE and panoramic views across the Severn Valley and towards the Malvern Hills.

No. 8, located on the second or top floor, is one of only eight apartments in the building with just two per floor. It is spacious, well lit and bright giving it a warm, welcoming atmosphere and in my opinion would make an ideal first home, bolt hole or holiday home to escape to throughout the year.

The apartment has recently been redecorated. New carpets have been fitted throughout. The kitchen has received a facelift with new wood-effect flooring and a breakfast bar. New carpets have been fitted in the living areas, hall and bedrooms. There is a Ferroli combination boiler (May 2015) which is regularly serviced and secondary glazing throughout.

A very well equipped kitchen with a range of floor and eye level cupboards, extensive work surfaces incorporating a stainless steel sink, drainer, mixer tap, coloured tile splashback, Hotpoint electric oven and four ring hob, extractor hood, John Lewis washer/dryer, Bosch dishwasher, Bosch tall fridge freezer, large cupboard housing the boiler and a sash window with front aspect enjoying view of hills.

At the the end of the hall is a sun-filled sitting room with a large bay window boasting spectacular scenic views across the Severn Valley.

Both bedrooms are generous in size. The main bedroom, at the end of the hall, is adjacent to the bathroom with views of the hill to the front. The second bedroom, currently used as a guest room and study, benefits from those far-reaching views too.

The bathroom includes a white suite comprising a shower over a panelled bath with tiled surround and glass screen. Large wash hand basin with tiled splashback and a wide mirrored cabinet and shaving light above. Low level WC with two small storage cupboards either side, chrome ladder style heated towel rail with mirror above, display shelf with mirrored recess above, two part opaque glazed sash windows with secondary glazing to front aspect also enjoying a view towards the hills.

Please note there isn't a lift but an elegant communal staircase. There are very useful cupboards in the hallway where the current owner stores all her shoes, boots etc. Plus a large loft, with ladder in which to store valuable, much loved items.

OUTSIDE

From Wells Road gated access leads to the front of the building. The main communal grounds lie to the side and rear of the property where access for vehicles is found off Grundy's Lane.

This leads directly to a single garage allocated to Apartment 8 with an up and over metal door. Immediately behind the main building there is a large raised gravelled terrace enclosed by railings. This is for the benefit of all the residents and commands a lovely aspect across the treetops towards the Severn Valley and the Cotswolds in the distance. The remaining grounds consist of mature shrubs and trees providing a lovely backdrop.
