A Beautifully Positioned And Highly Individual Conversion From An Former Cider Mill Enjoying A Peaceful Setting On The Outskirts Of The Sought After Village Of Welland. Combining Impressive Period Character With Stylish Contemporary Touches And Generous Garden. Energy Rating E

Location

Old Cider Mill enjoys an enviable position within the highly regarded village of Welland, nestled beneath the stunning backdrop of the Malvern Hills. The village itself offers an excellent range of local amenities including a village shop and Post Office, church, village hall and popular public house, creating a thriving and well connected community.

More extensive facilities can be found in the nearby Victorian hillside town of Great Malvern, the riverside town of Upton upon Severn and the Cathedral City of Worcester.

Transport links are particularly convenient, with the M50 close to Upton upon Severn and Junction 7 of the M5 providing straightforward access to The Midlands, South West and South Wales. Great Malvern railway station offers direct services to Worcester, Birmingham, London, Hereford and South Wales.

The area is also exceptionally well served by schooling, with a highly regarded primary school within the village and the renowned Hanley Castle High School nearby. A selection of respected independent schools can also be found in both Malvern and Worcester.

The Property

Old Cider Mill is a distinctive and beautifully presented semi detached home converted and extended from a former Cider Mill, thoughtfully converted in the 1990s to create a home of considerable charm and character. Rich in original features yet perfectly suited to modern living, the property offers a wonderful blend of exposed timbers, vaulted ceilings and contemporary styling throughout.

Approached via a shared driveway from Welland Road, the property enjoys rights of pedestrian and vehicular access and occupies an exceptional plot with extensive gardens and large private gated parking area for approximately six cars. There is also potential for the erection of a garage or carport, subject to the necessary consents.

Constructed of brick and timber beneath a pitched tiled roof, the accommodation is predominantly arranged across the ground floor, with an impressive first floor principal suite adding to the home’s versatility and appeal.

This is a truly unique home of immense personality and warmth, where considerable care and attention has been invested in both the presentation and ongoing maintenance of the property. Internal viewing is essential to fully appreciate both the setting and the lifestyle on offer.

The Accommodation

A recessed storm porch shelters a double width timber entrance door opening into a welcoming reception hall featuring beautiful wooden flooring, a theme that continues throughout much of the property. From here, panelled timber doors with cast iron furniture lead to two generously proportioned double bedrooms, both offering flexible accommodation, with the larger room enjoying delightful dual aspect views across the landscaped gardens.

An inner hallway provides access to the family bathroom, fitted with a modern suite including a separate shower enclosure which services this level.

The breakfast kitchen is undoubtedly one of the home’s standout features, occupying the older part of the barn and showcasing a wealth of exposed wall and ceiling timbers. Thoughtfully refitted, the kitchen combines character with quality contemporary finishes, including quartz worktops, stylish cabinetry with brass fittings and space for a range cooker beneath a stainless steel extractor. There is further space for appliances include a dishwasher, washing machine and fridge, while a glazed door opens directly onto the garden.

A step down leads into the impressive living room where the original character of the barn is particularly evident. A striking exposed brick fireplace with Villager wood burning stove forms the focal point, set upon a hearth created from the original cider stone, making for a truly atmospheric living space. Dual aspect windows and French doors flood the room with natural light and provide access to a charming enclosed courtyard garden, beautifully planted and enclosed by both walling and fencing to create a sheltered and private retreat.

From the living room, an oak staircase with wrought iron balustrading rises to the first floor accommodation. Here, vaulted ceilings and exposed oak trusses create a wonderful sense of space and character. The upper floor comprises two further bedrooms arranged as an ideal principal suite, including a dressing area with eaves storage and an en suite bathroom fitted with a contemporary white suite.

Outside

Without doubt, one of the property’s most exceptional features is its beautifully established and generously proportioned garden.

Extending from the house is an attractive red brick terrace complemented by gravelled and raised seating areas, perfectly positioned for outdoor entertaining and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and interspersed with mature specimen trees, shaped borders and a wide variety of established plants and shrubs providing year round colour and interest.

The grounds are enclosed by mature hedging and fencing, enhancing both privacy and the attractive setting. A gate leads to the extensive private parking area, where there is also a timber shed.

Beyond lies a further enclosed garden area, formerly used as a productive kitchen garden and complete with greenhouse, offering excellent potential for keen gardeners or those seeking additional outdoor space.

To the front of the property and accessed via French doors from the living room, is a partly walled and fenced gravelled courtyard garden with well stocked plant and flower border, timber shed with power, log store and double gates to the shared driveway.
