Netherton Cottage is a thoughtfully extended, semi-detached four-bedroom period home situated on Walwyn Road in the sought-after village of Colwall. Modernised and extended in recent years, the property offers an appealing mix of period charm and modern convenience, with tasteful finishes throughout. Carefully modernised and enlarged in 2015, the property blends historic character with modern comfort, creating light, airy living spaces that complement the cosy proportions of the original cottage. The result is a balanced and versatile family home finished in a tasteful, timeless style.
Originally built around 1850 and constructed of local Malvern stone, it was once the village sweet shop. It retains a wealth of period features, including exposed beams, fireplaces, deep window reveals with quarry-tiled sills, and traditional ledge-and-brace doors. It was extended and thermally upgraded in 2015 and has a combination of rendered and externally insulated solid walls and timber-clad cavity walls beneath slate pitched roofs. A new gas-fired boiler was installed in 2023.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors. The ground floor includes an entrance porch, a reception hall/study, kitchen breakfast room, dining room, sitting room, and utility room. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with an en-suite shower room, together with a family bathroom. To the front, the property benefits from a private driveway, while the rear features an enclosed garden complete with a garden studio/store.
Colwall is a thriving village community on the western slopes of the Malvern Hills, offering excellent rail links to Birmingham, London, Worcester and Hereford. Everyday amenities — including a Post Office, railway station, Doctors’ surgery, pharmacy, cafés, pubs, and a local supermarket — are all within easy walking distance.
The surrounding area is renowned for its walking routes, cultural venues, and schooling options. Nearby attractions include Malvern Theatres and Hereford Courtyard Theatre, while direct footpaths into the Malvern Hills lie just moments away. Excellent schools include Colwall C of E Primary School, The Elms School, The Downs Malvern, Malvern College, Malvern St James, and Hereford Cathedral School.

The Property
The property is approached via a gravelled driveway which leads to the front door with canopy shelter above. A timber front door with glazed panel opens into a porch with quarry-tiled flooring, practical storage space for coats and shoes, leading through a matching internal door into the hall / study.
A welcoming hall, ideal as a study or reading space features exposed beams, deep window reveals, and carpeted stairs rising to the first floor. Glazed double doors open into the dining room, creating a flowing semi-open plan layout.
The dining room is a characterful entertaining space centred around a brick fireplace with stone hearth and Clearview stove beneath a timber lintel. Quarry-tiled sills, alcove storage, timber cladding, and traditional radiators enhance the cottage feel, while pendant and wall lighting provide warmth.
The kitchen/breakfast room is at the rear of the property overlooking the garden. It is beautifully appointed with handmade cabinetry topped with Kashmir white granite worktops, a belfast sink and mixer tap. A Rangemaster Classic Deluxe range cooker (available by separate negotiation) sits beneath a fitted extractor hood. Lighting includes downlights, pendant, and under-cabinet lighting. There is engineered oak flooring, exposed beams, alcoves with fitted shelving, and space for an American-style fridge/freezer and further storage. A timber stable door with glazed panel leads to the utility room.
The utility room is a practical workspace with plumbing for laundry appliances, additional storage, and access to the garden via a hardwood rear door. The wall mounted gas combination boiler is housed here.
The sitting room is within the extensiona and is light and airy with a dual aspect. French doors flanked by windows open onto the garden, while windows on the opposite wall frame views of the Malvern Hills. A fireplace with inset Morso stove, carpeted floors, traditional-style radiator, and lamp sockets complete the space.
Upstairs
Located within the 2015 extension, the principle bedroom is generously proportioned, featuring skylights with views toward the Malvern Hills and useful eaves storage. Double pocket doors open to an ensuite shower room, creating a clever linked dual-aspect space with views over the rear garden. The en-suite includes a large tiled shower enclosure with glass door, countertop basin with mixer tap, back-to-wall WC, towel radiator, and window.
Bedroom two is a spacious double room with front aspect and views toward the hills.
Bedroom three is a rear-facing bedroom overlooking the garden, ideal for guests or family use.
Bedroom four is a flexible room currently used as a hobby/gym space, with front aspect and good proportions.
The family bathroom is tastefully finished with bath and shower over, pedestal basin, WC, radiator, and rear window.
Outside
To the front, a Malvern stone wall frames a wide gravel driveway with parking for multiple vehicles, including space for a motorhome or caravan.
At the side stands an insulated garden studio/store with light and power — ideal as a home office, workshop, or hobby space.
The enclosed west-facing rear garden is attractively landscaped with an Indian sandstone patio, pergola with sail shade, lawn, raised beds, and mature planting. Outdoor taps, power points, and a timber tool shed add practicality.
