Property Description

Occupying an enviable position on the edge of the highly desirable village of Colwall, Little Orchard is a beautifully presented detached Grade II listed country home enjoying exceptional views towards British Camp and the Malvern Hills.

Believed to date back to the 16th century, the property originated as a charming half-timbered cottage and has been sympathetically extended over the years to create an elegant and versatile family home of considerable character. Rich in period detail, Little Orchard retains a wealth of original features including exposed timbers, oak doors and a magnificent inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove. The spacious and flexible accommodation is perfectly suited to modern family living. A welcoming reception hall leads through to the principal reception rooms, including a delightful dining room with French doors opening onto a paved terrace and beautifully landscaped gardens beyond. The cosy sitting room provides a warm and inviting atmosphere, centred around the impressive inglenook fireplace.

The heart of the home is the superbly appointed kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with painted Shaker-style cabinetry, a gas aga and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances. Adjoining the kitchen is a practical utility room and cloakroom, while glazed panelled doors lead into a wonderful conservatory featuring heating and air conditioning, allowing for comfortable year-round enjoyment of the gardens.

Of particular note is the ground floor double bedroom suite with dressing area and en-suite shower room, ideal for guests.

To the first floor, an attractive oak staircase rises to a spacious study landing which leads to the impressive principal bedroom with vaulted ceiling, garden views and en-suite bathroom. Two further double bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family bathroom complete the accommodation.

Outside, Little Orchard sits within delightful landscaped gardens extending to approximately half an acre. The grounds have been thoughtfully designed with sweeping lawns, attractive terracing and a variety of paved seating areas perfectly positioned to enjoy the stunning surroundings and far-reaching views. A gated driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a detached garage situated to the rear of the property.
