Location

Brackenhurst enjoys a lovely setting in arguably Great Malvern's prime residential area, less than quarter of a mile from the centre of town and therefore within walking distance of a full range of amenities including shops and banks, Waitrose supermarket, the renowned theatre and cinema complex and the Splash leisure pool and gymnasium. Transport communications are excellent. There is a mainline railway station only a few minutes walk away. Junction 7 of the M5 and Junction 1 of the M50 motorways at Worcester and Upton are both within easy commuting distance. Educational needs are second to none in both the state and private systems and at primary and secondary levels. The elegant grounds of Malvern College are virtually on the doorstep. Malvern St James Girls School is only a few minutes away on foot and The Chase secondary is less than half a mile away.

Description

78 Albert Road South is an elegant detached residence originally constructed in the late 1800's to a classic Victorian design of brick under a slate roof with bay windowed elevations. Many original features remain including several fireplaces, cornicing to ceilings, skirtings, internal joinery and even the panel that would have alerted the servants of the house when room service was required (although it no longer operates).

The accommodation itself is extremely generous. On the ground floor an enclosed entrance porch and large hallway lead to a cloakroom with WC, three reception rooms, a very large kitchen/breakfast room and a utility/laundry room. Also from this level steps lead down to three useful cellars. The original Victorian staircase leads via a half landing onto the landing, off which there are four principal bedrooms, a fifth bedroom/dressing room, a separate dressing room with bath, two bathrooms and a separate WC. It is worth noting that most of the bedrooms have wash basins or plumbing connected. The house has gas fired central heating.

Brackenhurst is approached through a pillared and gated entrance on to a tarmac driveway that provides private parking for several vehicles and leads to a long tandem brick and timber garage. Undoubtedly, however one of the great strengths of the house is its setting in a much larger than average, beautifully landscaped mature garden, surrounded by impressive trees against a backdrop of the Malvern Hills. The south and west facing rear garden, laid out to lawns with seating areas, rockeries and mature borders is a lovely focal point.

Brackenhurst has been a much loved and well maintained home for the current owners for many years. This is a rare opportunity for the next generation to stamp their own mark on the house
