Set high on the eastern slopes of the Malvern Hills, this two-bedroom semi offers an elevated outlook across the Severn Valley to Bredon Hill and the Cotswold escarpment. The compact, two-storey layout is characterful and straightforward to run, with gas central heating, double glazing and owned solar panels that contribute modest savings to bills.
The living space is arranged over ground and first floors with a front sitting room featuring an open fireplace and a separate dining room. The kitchen is fitted with shaker-style units and has a stable door out to the gravelled terrace — a lovely spot for coffee and enjoying the panorama. Outside, the garden is terraced and enclosed, with a shed and several flat seating areas accessed by steps.
This home is best suited to buyers seeking a low-maintenance, scenic retreat or those downsizing who prioritise views and location over generous floor area. It is offered chain-free on freehold title and lies within easy reach of Great Malvern’s shops, rail services and well-regarded schools. Note the property is compact (approximately 515 sq ft) and has one bathroom; the stepped, shared access path and garden slopes may not suit anyone with limited mobility.
Practical details: EPC rating D; mains services connected (unverified); the vendor-owned solar array currently produces approximately £70 per quarter. Prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves on all measurements, services and suitability for their needs.
