Hacketts is situated on the immediate outskirts of the village of Colwall, on the western slopes of the magnificent Malvern Hills. Colwall has a rich community life with many amenities post office, pharmacy, butchers, delicatessen/café, general stores, hotel, pub/restaurant, excellent primary school, two private preparatory schools, two churches, doctors surgery and a lively arts scene. This is where the world-famous Malvern Water is bottled as it gushes from the depths of the Hills. Colwall is on a direct rail link to both London Paddington and central Birmingham. The historic spa town of Malvern is just 4 miles away, and the charming market town of Ledbury 6 ½ miles away. The cathedral cities of Worcester, Hereford, and Gloucester are all within easy commuting distance and the nearest motorway is Junction 2 of the M50 approx. 8 miles away, with the M5 Junction 7 being 11 miles away.
Hacketts is believed to date back to the 1890s, built in a Tudorbethan style with Malvern Granite to the base and a black and white timber facade. Originally two dwellings that have seamlessly combined over the years to offer spacious and versatile family accommodation. The main entrance hall, at the southern side, is welcoming and inviting and leads to two principal reception rooms. The living room has a stone fireplace with a Villager wood burner and an extremely attractive, slightly bowed in shape, leaded five pane window. From the hallway a fully glazed panelled door leads through to the vast kitchen space that would benefit from modernisation, although the potential is immense, and a warm cream fronted Aga with double hot plate is there to add to a wonderful farmhouse kitchen. Attached to here is a sizeable room that offers great versatility, either by combining this space with that of the kitchen, as a boot room as there is an external doorway, or to remain as the utility and butlers pantry where all white goods may be arranged. This is an extremely light room as it is illuminated by twin windows looking directly out over the beautifully maintained garden. The following two reception rooms are linked by an open archway, and again with creativity and vision can offer a fantastic family room and formal dining room. A little further along the hall lies the study that could be used as a home office reached by a private entrance at the second hallway. The downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor. From both of the entrance halls, stairs rise to the first floor where there are five bedrooms, four of which have en-suite facilities by way of vanity units, and there is a family bathroom that has built-in storage cupboards and deep shelving for linens. There is a also a separate shower room on this floor. This is an extremely attractive property that would benefit from modernisation and has superb gardens and is surrounded by a natural and calming landscape.
Hacketts benefits from having wrap around gardens, with the possibility of purchasing additional land, should it be required. To the rear of the property, a terrace runs along the length of the back of the house and makes a fantastic entertaining space, particularly as it flows out from the dining room via patio doors. Quintessential English rose beds gently follow the curves of the lawn and contain delicate shades of pink, red and white. There is a pond bordered with an attractive rockery and a summerhouse in which to sit and appreciate the beauty of your surroundings. Tucked away to the side of the main garden, and approached by the double width gateway and sweeping drive, are the detached red brick coach house and stable that are original to the property, together with a sizeable workshop, outside wc and further outhouse.
