5 Bedroom Semi-Detached For Sale   |   Hornyold Road, Malvern, Worcestershire, WR14 1QH   |    £615,000 Sold

Summary

Unexpectedly back on the sales market - This great house was under offer but circumstances within the sales chain changed. The vendor is keen to sell as they are all packed up and ready to go!

No. 59 Hornyold Road is a grand and impressive period house situated, in my opinion, in one of the finer roads of Malvern. Characterful, five bedrooms, semi-detached, two reception rooms, original features, tranquil, large level garden, fantastic views of the Malvern Hills and less than 5 minutes' drive to the train station and local shops of Great Malvern.

DESCRIPTION

Steeped in history the Victorians certainly knew how to build a striking home. This period house, one of only 3, has great presence and charm. It is grand and attractive with a mature and pretty, private garden that is level, rare for Malvern. There is also off road parking for up to 4 cars.

Nestled in this superior road, named after the landowners at the time, No. 59 leaves you wanting more. Walk through the garden gate into a pretty, front courtyard with the garden on your left noticing the majestic Malvern Hills as a glorious backdrop.

Enter the house through the ornate front door into the entrance lobby and you will find a cloakroom to kick off boots and shoes, hang coats on a peg and enter into this elegant home.

Initially you will be struck by a grand sitting room with dual aspect windows, elegant original fireplace, sash windows, picture rails and tall ceilings makes this a really characterful room to relax or entertain guests.

A 23ft long hallway includes a traditional staircase, cupboard to hide the hoover etc as you approach the heart of the home to find a welcoming and homely country style kitchen with an AGA, space for a large family kitchen table, utility room with stable door leading to a cute courtyard area. A rear conservatory leads to the driveway and garden.

Head up to the first floor where the current owners have a marvellous 2nd reception room. The children have now flown the nest and this room with original fireplace, sash windows and panoramic views is the ideal place to watch TV and relax. It could be reinstated as a sumptuous main bedroom if you wished.

To the front is an original loo with a gas lamp and a lovely wooden door.

Bedroom 2 at the rear has a gorgeous original fire place with two classic sash windows overlooking the rear garden. The current owners use this room as their main bedroom.

Adjacent to Bedroom 2 is a tastefully decorated part-tiled family bathroom with white bath and handheld shower plus a separate shower cubicle, sash window and charming views. There is a radiator and heated towel rail. The classic bathroom door is half wooden and half glass and very in keeping of the Victorian era.

On the 2nd floor there is a cute room located in the tower. Bedroom 5 would make a superb office away from it all or a useful baby/children's room.

Bedroom 3 is generous in size with a quirky little window as a floor level feature to the front and 2 Velux windows. It is an ample double bedroom but there is restricted height in some of the room...the Victorians were 5ft 5 inches so this would have been fine for them! There is good head height to half the room and lovely views.

Bedroom 4 is 17ft long with 2 Velux windows and an open brick feature plus storage in the eaves but again with restricted height. For children these rooms are quirky and charming. I had a boring square room...modern and featureless. I would have loved this!

A Worcester Bosch Greenstar Boiler with a 10 year guarantee as standard was installed in the utility room in early March of this year.

This house with it's lovely garden is a highly desirable home. Now available for sale so another family or couple to enjoy its unique charm. Please contact Andrea at ChocolateBox and I will have the pleasure to show you around.
