Green Lane, Malvern, Worcestershire, WR14

This stunning and truly versatile home with 2,227 sq ft of joyful living space, built in 1836 within a beautiful former church was tastefully converted in 2002. The magic is in the blend of stylish period features within a contemporary and clean style. The best historic features have been sensitively preserved, including the original stone arched windows, ceiling height, corbels, stone work and limestone flooring.

The addition of the oak staircase and large sky light allows light to flood in and the mood in the house that is created is uplifting. Full advantage was taken to create an innovative layout, as well as the creation of a mezzanine level.

Converted into four houses that were so well built they received a plaque for the BEST conversion in Malvern that year. The roof was entirely rebuilt using original slates and coping stones.

The entrance hall is grand and impressive with a large double bedroom, an original stone window with east-facing views of the side garden patio area and a handy en-suite bathroom. Also on the ground floor is a useful utility room and a separate storage room to store bikes..

Up easy stairs to the first floor and you will find the grand open plan, fully fitted kitchen which has a range of top quality Neff appliances, including 2 Neff ovens, a Neff coffee maker, wine cooler, Quooker tap, a large kitchen island and extensive storage space. The floor to ceiling glass to the front of the open plan dining area and sitting room mean you have the best of all worlds, picture perfect views, light and privacy.

There is the warming addition of electric underfloor heating and the open plan living and dining area is the perfect setting for dinner parties and gatherings.

From the living room there is access to the roof of the porch, which has been used for growing tomatoes, edible plants, bulbs, and ferns. (Throughout the living room, landing, and master bedroom are contemporary and stylish geometric light fittings).

Stairs lead to the upper landing with original wood beams, stone wall, and west-facing skylight onto the Hills.

Bedroom 1 on the second floor is a 23' delight with original beams, vaulted ceilings, plenty of natural light, original windows, hill views and stairs to a versatile mezzanine that has excellent potential for use as an office and has its own walk-in storage cupboard and views of the Malvern Hills through the unique windows.

Bedroom 2 has built in wardrobes, original wood beams, views across the upper landing through the skylight onto the Malvern Hills. It is currently used as a home office but would easily accommodate a kingsize bed and enjoys a modern and contemporary style walk-in shower.

Porch house is absolutely flooded in light thanks to the stunning lancet windows that span two floors and the large skylights elsewhere. The unique setting to work from home too, glancing over at the lush green of the Malvern Hills and listening to the cows on the hillside is a treat few are lucky enough to experience.

OUTSIDE

There are two useful parking spaces dedicated to Porch House and a beautiful, original Yew tree surrounded by a box hedge. There are hyacinths, daffodils and bluebells in the Spring months and foxgloves in the summer. A second Yew tree sits at the far end of the front outdoor area beside which there are some steps and space for some grow boxes beside parking for the second vehicle.

A home electric vehicle charging point (EO) with a minimalistic design is a must. Around the east side of the property are steps down to a private patio area.

Porch House is an eclectic and charismatic home and we look forward to showing you this unique home.

After-dinner walks through the woods are best because then you can listen to the owls. On the weekends there are often clusters of colourful paragliders flying off the hillside.
