9 bed detached house for sale

Como Road, Malvern WR14

An exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire Rockburn House, a most unique and splendid grand residence set in the heart of Malvern, offering substantial accommodation and remarkable future potential.

This striking period home is approached with a sense of occasion, encircled by a charming moat that enhances both its privacy and architectural presence - a truly distinctive feature rarely found. A wonderful roof terrace crowns the property, enjoying elevated views across the town centre and providing an impressive setting for entertaining or relaxing.

The principal accommodation is both generous and versatile. The ground floor features two large reception rooms, ideal for formal entertaining and family living alike, together with a spacious kitchen diner forming the heart of the home and perfectly suited to modern lifestyles.

The property has already undergone significant improvements, with further works ongoing, creating a superb canvas for an incoming purchaser to complete and personalise to their own vision. The scale, flexibility and architectural presence present endless possibilities - whether as a magnificent private residence, multi-generational home, or an ambitious lifestyle project (subject to any necessary consents).

The main house provides six well-proportioned bedrooms arranged over the two upper floors, offering extensive family accommodation. At basement level, there is a self-contained apartment currently arranged with three bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen, ideal for extended family and guest accommodation.

To the side of the property lies further untapped potential, with accommodation arranged over four floors that could be enhanced and reconfigured to create additional reception rooms or independent living space.

To the rear, the former racquet building, presently utilised as a workshop, offers yet more exciting scope for conversion, subject to the appropriate planning permissions, making this an outstanding opportunity.
