A five-bedroom home featuring a cinema in the basement is approved for Malvern, promising to enhance the local area.
Malvern: Exciting news for the area! Plans for a new five-bedroom house on Tibberton Road have been given the green light by local planners.
The land, currently used as gardens and a parking area, is owned by Malvern St James. They’re set to build a detached three-storey home right in the Great Malvern Conservation Area.
So, what’s in store for this new pad? The ground floor will have a double garage, a cozy living room, a family room, and even a snug/study. Plus, there’s a dining kitchen and a pantry. Sounds pretty spacious, right?
Upstairs, you’ll find a master bedroom with a dressing room and ensuite, along with four more bedrooms and a bathroom. But wait, there’s more! The basement will feature a cinema and a gym, along with a utility room. Talk about living the dream!
Architects PoolePhillips designed the house to blend in with the local vibe, mixing modern design with the classic Edwardian style. They’re aiming for a look that fits right in with the neighborhood.
The house will have stylish rendered walls, stone details, and those lovely steep roofs with gables. It’s all about keeping that unique Malvern charm alive.
Local council members noted that the site is in a busy residential area, and they believe the new home won’t bother the neighbors too much. Some residents were worried about privacy, asking for windows to be obscured and for hedges or fences to be added.
Malvern Civic Society raised a point about losing the school’s car park, which might mean more cars on Tibberton Road. But planners reassured everyone that there’s enough on-street parking and that it won’t cause any safety issues.
Plus, the location is great for public transport, with easy access to buses and trains. So, it looks like this new home is set to be a fantastic addition to Malvern!
