**Comment From Robert Reed Of Gascoigne Halman**
This is easily one of the most surprising and deceptive houses I have marketed
in my career to date. Superbly located in the heart of Malpas on the High
Street, with every amenity in walking distance, the house has a cute,
characterful and appealing exterior but does not look large. It is a property
with a long standing local history, having previously been the village
butchers.
However, that is the joy. When you set foot through the door, a wonderful
house opens up which is incredibly spacious, packed full of character and
offers ideal space for a growing family - particularly relevant with the
Alport Primary and Bishop Heber Secondary school both within close walking
distance.
In total there are four bedrooms, three bathrooms, four reception rooms,
breakfast kitchen, utility and cloakroom. The rooms are of impressive
proportion and the layout versatile to suit the differing needs of various
potential buyers.
Impressive though it is, the inside is only half of the story. The outside
space and garden is spectacular. For a village centre plot, 0. 32 acre is very
large and the amount of driveway parking and turning space plus a good sized
garage all a real advantage. Thereafter the garden rises up and is beautifully
tended to, proving a wonderful back drop to this lovely home and at its
highest point enjoying far reaching views of countryside to the front and an
aspect to the iconic Malpas Parish Church to the rear.
Malpas is increasingly being recognised as a highly convenient location with
access to railway stations, airports and key roads all within comfortable
reach. This combines with a traditional and appealing village feel and much
investment in local amenities including a newly opened gastro pub / restaurant
known as `The Lion' and a recently opened new build co - op convenience store.
