Description

Front Page

A Wonderfully Situated And Thoughtfully Extended Three Bedroom Period Semi Detached Home, Offering Beautifully Presented Accommodation Set Within Generous Grounds And Enjoying Far Reaching Rural Views Across Open Countryside Towards The Full Range Of The Malvern Hills. Energy Rating: “D”.

The Location

Enjoying a delightful semi rural setting, the property combines the best of countryside living with everyday convenience. It lies within easy reach of the village of Welland, which offers a range of local amenities including a village store, primary school, garage and church. The riverside town of Upton upon Severn is approximately three miles distant, while the popular spa town of Malvern is just five miles away, both providing an excellent choice of shops, leisure facilities, cafés and transport links.

Transport connections are particularly strong, with Junction 1 of the M50 motorway approximately six miles away, providing access to the M5 and beyond. Mainline railway stations at Worcester and Malvern offer direct services to Birmingham, London and Wales, while regular bus routes connect the surrounding areas.

The Property

The Old School is an immaculately presented period home that has been significantly enhanced by the current owners, including a superb extension that has created a spacious, open plan family dining kitchen and an additional first floor bedroom. The property offers light, airy accommodation arranged over two floors, perfectly suited to modern living.

Approached via a gravel driveway providing ample off road parking, the property enjoys an attractive frontage enclosed by a walled perimeter. A paved pathway leads to the front entrance, opening into a welcoming reception hall with staircase rising to the first floor and access to the principal living spaces.

The sitting room is a charming and generously proportioned space positioned to the front, enjoying views across open farmland and featuring a sandstone fireplace with cast iron grate. This leads through to a versatile rear lounge with double doors opening onto a covered verandah, creating a wonderful connection between indoor and outdoor living.

At the heart of the home lies the extended dining kitchen, thoughtfully designed with a range of shaker style units, integrated appliances and ample workspace, forming a superb family and entertaining area. A separate utility room provides additional practicality and storage.

The First Floor

The first floor continues to impress, with a light filled landing enhanced by skylights that frame views across the Severn Valley. There are three well proportioned double bedrooms, each offering character features such as exposed roof trusses and pleasant outlooks. The principal bedroom enjoys views towards the Cotswolds, while the remaining bedrooms benefit from equally attractive rural aspects.

The accommodation is completed by a modern family bathroom fitted with a contemporary white suite and walk in shower.

Outside

The generous rear garden is a particular highlight, enjoying a westerly aspect with stunning views across rolling countryside to the Malvern Hills. A paved patio adjoins the kitchen, ideal for al fresco dining, while a covered decked verandah extends from the lounge, providing a sheltered seating area overlooking the lawn. The garden is well enclosed and features mature trees, including Oak and Silver Birch, enhancing the sense of privacy and tranquillity.

Double vehicular gates lead to an additional hardstanding area, ideal for storing a caravan, boat or trailer, and giving access to a substantial workshop/store.
