Ten years ago, the present owners, Mike and Joan, were relocated from Cheltenham and looking for a new home in charming Malvern. Mike explains that the house had to be close to their work, have a spacious ground floor living area, study, en suite and views to the garden.

Number 158 is a modern and spacious family home that stands back from the road. It ticked all the boxes and also offered access to cultured Malvern and the glorious rolling Malvern Hills that are designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty.

Malvern is a vibrant Victorian Spa town, with an active cultural calendar, good state and independent schools, excellent retail opportunities and local markets. The house is a quick three minute drive to the town centre, or a five minute drive into the countryside. There are numerous rambling groups, or you can stroll through the fields by the house to one of the many local paths and take in the breathtaking scenery.

The rail service into London Paddington and Birmingham enable daily commuting, whilst the M5 and M50 motorways are easily accessible. Malvern and the wider district provide a perfect blend of town and country living.

Joan says the house has been a superb family home, and its open plan ground floor ideal for family life and entertaining. It has a sophisticated and comfortable ambience, and the generous windows flood the rooms with light, which adds to the overall welcoming and hospitable nature of the home.

The modern, well equipped kitchen is a large sociable hub where you can gather round the table for chatty meals: and for a jolly Christmas lunch has easily accommodated four grandchildren and their parents. This is a family friendly home where the open design enables parents to stay within earshot of their young children when required.

The chic lounge zone invites relaxation and is an all year room where you settle before the winter warmth of the fire, or throw open the wall to wall patio doors to create an outside summer living room; and invite the garden into the house. With the morning sun on the patio, surrounded by soft greenery, an alfresco breakfast is a summer treat.”*

158 Leigh Sinton Road Pages.indd 13 07/09/2018 09:01 Mike and Joan take great pleasure in outdoor living and the delightful, private and low maintenance garden has been perfect for the hot summer. They are able to follow the sun through the day and in the evening will catch the last of the sun, savouring a glass of wine on the decking at the end of the garden.”

Leigh Sinton Road connects North Malvern to the village from which it takes its name. Leigh Sinton is only one and a half miles to the North and has a village pub, a small corner shop and a Chinese takeaway. The local pronunciation of Leigh is rhyming with “lie”.

Great Malvern, the main focal point for the district, is two miles south and retains its Victorian grandeur with its listed Railway station and Malvern Festival theatre. In addition, there is a rare mix of boutique shops and cafes, as well as Waitrose and further high street retailers.

The County Town and Cathedral City of Worcester, lying on the banks of The River Severn, is some 8 miles North East providing for high street shopping and characterised by one of England’s great Cathedrals, its Racecourse, County Cricket Ground, Premiership Rugby Club and University.

The M5 motorway, accessed via J7 at South Worcester, is 10 miles providing for onward travel to Birmingham and the surrounding industrial and commercial areas as well as Birmingham International Airport (45 miles), the M40 and London (140 miles). The M5 South also provides for commuting to Cheltenham, Gloucester and Bristol (69 miles). Hereford is only 21 miles to the West.

Whilst Malvern benefits from Railway stations and Great Malvern and Malvern Link (1.6 miles), The Worcester Parkway Railway station, situated to the east of Worcester, is now under construction and is intended to increase the capacity to London as well as reduced journey times. This will have a significant impact on Worcestershire’s accessibility to the Capital and other regional centres.

If education is a priority then Worcestershire is blessed with an enviable mix of schooling at all levels, including a variety of independent establishments, allowing parents to select the right environment for their children’s needs. Malvern gives its name to both The College and Malvern St James, whilst at Worcester may be found both the King’s Schools and Royal Grammar Schools.
