DESCRIPTION

Gospel Place is a small and exclusive development comprising beautiful, contemporary and well-built properties situated at the end of a quiet, leafy, no through road. No. 7 is arranged as a duplex on the second and third floor to provide grand, warm, light and very comfortable living accommodation.

This virtually new apartment is utterly charming and exudes elegance offering modern day living with panache and style. The owner has also spent a considerable amount of money here to make the most of the kitchen and bathroom.

It is a rare opportunity to now buy this truly generous apartment. At 1,700 sq ft of internal living space to enjoy this is much larger than average with the added benefit of a lift and a decent size balcony plus views of the Malvern Hills. You would have to go a long way to equal anything like this and I see many...

One enters the apartment into a sizeable hallway including a pretty cloakroom, utility room and a handy storage/coat cupboard.

However, it's in the living area that you are struck by what a truly amazing space this is. The superb kitchen/dining area (21'2 x 16'4) includes a fully fitted, custom design, handleless kitchen with grey base units and plenty of granite worktops, multi-function oven, ceramic hob, integrated dishwasher, stainless steel sink and mixer tap/hand spray, new larder cupboard, kitchen island, two fridge freezers, feature lighting finished with a deluxe Karndean flooring which is both practical and stylish.

The dining area is currently set out with a large glass table and chairs for six people to comfortably sit and relax but the room could take a much larger table if need be.

A balcony with green views of the communal gardens has space for garden furniture, a table, pretty pots and plants is accessed off the kitchen for those morning coffees and a glass of wine or two in the evening.

The sitting room is equally generous (20'1 x 15'7), airy with a juliet balcony overlooking trees and a pretty building formerly a convent. There are plenty of windows, all timber and double glazed, allowing sunlight to flood the room. A digital free view feed is available for a television in both the living room and the main bedroom.

Head up the stairs to two extensive and elegant bedrooms. Bedroom 1 (18'4 x 11'5) includes a modern en suite shower room. Bedroom 2 (17'11 x 10'6) is also generous. Underfoot are woollen carpets plus excellent head space in these rooms, so don't let the eaves fool you. They overlook the front of the property with pretty tree views.

Bedroom 3 (18'4 x 5'3) will make an ideal home office or snug.

Please note that if required it would be easy to install a stair lift on a slimline, straight rail to future proof your new home.

The part tiled family bathroom is roomy with a white suite including a shower bath, curved glass screen, rainfall shower head, hand held shower, loo, extra wide basin, vanity unit, towel rail and a ceramic tiled floor.

The Civic Award is for a building which, in design, craftsmanship and fitness for it's locality, adds something special to Malvern. In 2021, the Malvern Civic Society presented a Highly Commended certificate to Gospel Place in Ranelagh Road.

No. 7 is an extremely desirable apartment and I don't see it being available for sale for very long! Viewings are highly recommended so please do not hesitate to contact Andrea at ChocolateBox for further information. Open every day of the week including evenings.
