Occupying an enchanting position within the very heart of Blockley, yet enjoying an extraordinary sense of privacy and tranquillity, Malvern House is a distinguished Grade II listed village residence whose origins trace back to the Victorian era.

Set within grounds approaching 0.8 acre, the property enjoys the rare privilege of direct access to Blockley Brook, the gentle watercourse weaving through the gardens and lending an almost pastoral romance to the setting. Rising above the brook, the landscaped gardens unfold in tiers and terraces, culminating in breathtaking elevated views across the village rooftops and surrounding Cotswold countryside — a magical backdrop, particularly at sunset.

During the current owners’ tenure, Malvern House has undergone an extensive and meticulous programme of refurbishment. Taken sympathetically back to the stone, immense care and consideration has been devoted to preserving the building’s inherent character whilst discreetly introducing the comforts and versatility demanded of contemporary living. Every enhancement has been carefully judged to complement the home’s historic fabric, from the addition of elegant rear balconies overlooking the gardens, to the creation of luxurious en-suite facilities and a beautifully integrated self-contained annex.

The result is a home of remarkable warmth and flexibility, equally suited to family life, multi-generational living, guest accommodation or refined entertaining on a grand scale.

The accommodation extends across four floors and reveals itself with increasing charm and character throughout. The lower ground floor, with both independent and internal access, provides an exceptional leisure and entertaining space comprising a generous living room, spa room, gymnasium, cloakroom and extensive stores. An interlinking door leads seamlessly into the self-contained annex, offering a kitchen and an inviting dining/living space with stairs rising to a versatile upper room, ideal as a guest bedroom or home office, complete with shower room.

The principal entrance is approached at upper ground floor level, where an impressive reception hall with double-height vaulted ceiling and galleried staircase creates an immediate sense of occasion. From here, beautifully proportioned reception rooms include a delightful sitting room and formal dining room, alongside a practical breakfast kitchen that has served the family exceptionally well. A cloakroom completes this level.

The upper floors provide six impressive double bedrooms arranged across two storeys. Three principal bedrooms benefit from en-suite facilities, notably the superb main suite with both bath and separate shower, whilst the uppermost floor offers further spacious accommodation alongside a modern family shower room and study landing.

Externally, the grounds are a defining feature of the property. Expansive parking and an oversized detached double garage — a rarity within the village — are complemented by ornamental gardens, meandering pathways and secluded terraces designed to embrace the changing outlooks and tranquil atmosphere. At the water’s edge, a dedicated brookside terrace offers a wonderfully peaceful retreat, while higher within the gardens, broad lawns and a spectacular entertaining terrace enjoy commanding views back towards the house and beyond.

A charming summer house with equipped kitchen provides the perfect setting for hosting summer gatherings and evening celebrations, where sunsets fall gently across the ridge line of Blockley’s honeyed stone rooftops.

Steeped in local heritage yet entirely attuned to modern living, Malvern House is an exceptional Cotswold home of rare character, beauty and provenance.
