The Belvedere, 252 Wells Road, is a handsome early 19th Century villa, the interior of which retains many original period features and commands glorious far reaching views standing within the exquisite conservation area of the Malvern Hills, with direct and easy access from the garden to unprecedented hillside walks.
The property briefly comprises drawing room with large sash window and intricately carved cornicing to its high ceiling and log burning stove on a polished black granite hearth, kitchen/living room with shaker units set under deep granite work surfaces, integrated appliances including a 5-oven electric Aga, larder fridge and dishwasher and pine wood stripped floor, living room and study.
To the rear of the property is a library/dining room with shelving to the full height of one wall, a large sash window and an adjoining pantry.
At the rear of the main reception hall is a boot room, leading into the garden through a small rear porch.
Adjoining the property is a conservatory area, with some very useful utility rooms to the rear.
A beautiful wood Regency staircase rises to a split level landing which houses the recently refurbished shower.
To the first floor there are three large double bedrooms serviced by an en suite shower room and a fine family bathroom with Jack and Jill door, so can be used as an en suite to bedroom two.
On the first floor is the magnificent master bedroom which is entered via a dressing room, which could be used as an occasional bedroom/ nursery; through secret doors hidden in a bank of wardrobes which opens into a glorious room with full height sash windows, and a bow bay windows.The master bedroom also benefits from an en suite shower room.
On the second floor are three further bedrooms with an interconnecting storage room and a central room which has a door off. This top floor would make an ideal teenager suite with the simple introduction of a bathroom.
The property has gardens of approximately 1 acre. The current owners have significantly landscaped the gardens over the recent years to provide excellent outdoor space for a Malvern home.
The outbuildings include a timber and tiled roof log shed, and there is additional external side access into the cellars. The cellar also has an additional access from the centre of the house via steps down below the main staircase. It is made up of one principal room, and additional secure wine store with fourteen bins. The cellar is of a perfect cool temperature for the storage of wine.
