Rosemeade 201 Guarlford Road | Guarlford | Malvern | | WR13 6NS ROSEMEADE

201 Guarlford Road is the perfect combination of a superb family home in an excellent location. It sits on the fringe of the charming Hamlet of Guarlford, only a few miles from historic and vibrant Malvern. The present owners, Peter and Sarah, say it has been a fantastic family home for the past twenty one years and are sorry the time has come to downsize.

Seller Insight

Peter explains that the house is an extremely spacious, positive and sociable space where they can relax and easily entertain. They transformed a double garage into a large and comfortable sitting room. However, the kitchen is the central hub of daily life, where everyone gathers for food and conversation. Sarah adds that the tranquillity of the kitchen patio is her favourite space for al fresco meals.

There are pretty views to the charming garden from most rooms, and the glass walls of the conservatory both pull the garden into the room and tempt you outside. The garden is a delight of lawns, shrubbery, views to the hills, and with a stately oak tree as its central feature.

Peter and Sarah purchased the paddock behind the garden and it has been a child friendly play ground, a grazing pasture for neighbour’s horses but mainly a fantastic party pad. There have been numerous parties and at a graduation event, with a marquee erected, floodlighting and live music it really surpassed itself. It was almost a mini music festival with no worry of the noise travelling to neighbours.

Guarlford has a busy village life centred on the church and village hall, and the idyllic rural location combines perfectly with the many qualities of Malvern: excellent schools, restaurants, shops, theatre and annual festivals. There is a good rail service into London Paddington and easy access to the M50 and M5 motorways.

Peter and Sarah have loved the house and know it will offer the next owners a very warm welcome.*
