An Impressive Ground Floor Apartment Of Approximately 958 Sq Ft, Forming Part Of An Elegant Period Residence In One Of Great Malvern’s Most Prestigious Locations, With Spacious Accommodation, Delightful Communal Gardens, Allocated Parking Space And A Fascinating History. No Onward Chain. Energy Rating D.

Exceptional Location

Albert Road South is regarded as one of Great Malvern’s most sought after residential locations, perfectly positioned for enjoying everything this celebrated Worcestershire town has to offer.

The town centre, Great Malvern Priory, independent shops, cafés, restaurants and cultural attractions are all within easy reach, while Great Malvern mainline railway station is within walking distance.

And, of course, the magnificent Malvern Hills rise above the town, providing one of England’s most distinctive landscapes and miles of beautiful walking country.

The Property

Occupying a prime position on Albert Road South, one of Great Malvern’s most desirable and established residential addresses, Apartment 3 offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the grandeur and character of an important period building, combined with the comfort and convenience of generous ground floor accommodation.

Set amid beautifully maintained communal gardens, Lawnside House is an elegant and imposing residence with a fascinating history. The building was home to an independent girls’ school from 1885 until 1994, before being sensitively converted into a collection of well appointed apartments in the mid 1990s.

Its heritage extends beyond its architecture. Sir Edward Elgar, George Bernard Shaw and Lord Tennyson are all known to have visited Lawnside House, giving the property an intriguing connection to Malvern’s rich cultural and artistic past.

Elegant Period Interiors

Arrival at Lawnside House immediately sets the tone.

A substantial entrance door opens into a grand communal reception hall and stairwell, where impressive proportions and period character provide an elegant introduction to the building. The communal interior has recently been redecorated and recarpeted throughout.

Apartment 3 enjoys the particular advantage of being situated on the ground floor, with its private entrance opening into a welcoming reception hall.

Throughout the apartment, generous room proportions and attractive architectural details reflect the heritage of the building.

A Beautifully Proportioned Drawing Room

At the heart of the apartment is the impressive living room, a wonderfully spacious and light filled reception room with the scale and elegance expected of a property of this period.

Two traditional sash windows to the front are complemented by an additional side window, creating an attractive dual aspect and allowing natural light to fill the room.

A decorative ceiling rose and elegant coving provide further reminders of the building’s period origins, creating a refined space equally suited to relaxed everyday living or entertaining.

Spacious Kitchen & Dining Room

The generous kitchen/dining room provides an inviting and sociable setting, with ample space for a dining table and chairs.

Windows overlooking the gardens create a particularly pleasant outlook, allowing the changing seasons and beautifully maintained grounds to become part of everyday life.

The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of base and eye level cabinetry, complemented by work surfaces and splashbacks, while the generous dimensions of the room provide excellent scope for both cooking and dining.

A separate cloakroom provides additional convenience and is fitted with a WC and pedestal wash basin.

A Generous Double Bedroom

The large double bedroom is another beautifully proportioned room, with a pair of sash windows providing plenty of natural light and reinforcing the apartment’s period character.

Its generous dimensions create a calm and comfortable retreat with ample room for bedroom furniture.

The adjoining accommodation includes a well appointed shower room with WC, pedestal wash basin and shower enclosure featuring a waterfall shower head and side jets. A contemporary vertical radiator, tiled walls and an extractor fan complete the room.

Magnificent Communal Gardens

The beautiful communal gardens are undoubtedly one of Lawnside House’s defining features.

The building sits within impressive, mature grounds centred around a substantial level lawn, bordered by established and carefully maintained beds filled with shrubs and planting.

Pathways wind through the gardens and around the house, creating a wonderfully peaceful setting in which residents can enjoy the surroundings.

Perhaps most special of all are the views towards the Malvern Hills and the tower of Great Malvern Priory, providing a memorable backdrop and an unmistakable sense of place.

For an apartment situated so conveniently for the centre of Great Malvern, the extent and quality of these grounds are a particularly appealing feature.

A pedestrian entrance onto Avenue Road provides additional convenience, with a bus stop close at hand.

Private Parking & Additional Storage

Apartment 3 benefits from its own allocated parking space within the grounds, together with additional visitor parking for the complex.

To the rear of the apartment is a shared paved patio area, from which steps descend to a useful communal cellar with lighting. We understand the cellar is dry enough to provide valuable additional storage.

A Home of Character, Space & Heritage

Apartment 3 is far more than simply a spacious apartment.

It is an opportunity to become part of the continuing story of Lawnside House, a distinguished period residence with a remarkable heritage, impressive architecture and beautiful grounds, occupying one of Great Malvern’s finest addresses.

With approximately 958 sq ft of elegantly proportioned accommodation, period features, sash windows, a superb reception room, generous kitchen/dining space, magnificent communal gardens and private parking, this is a home with an atmosphere and sense of occasion that is increasingly difficult to find.
