Summary

Enjoying what must be one of the most commanding and impressive sea views in Pembrokeshire, Malvern Lodge is a remarkable residence. Originally one of the lodge houses for Penally Abbey, from humble beginnings this superbly positioned home offers one of the most compelling properties on the open market. This detached home offers several reception areas on the ground floor, along with up to six bedrooms on the first floor. As impressive as the internal accommodation is, the property enjoys approximately eight acres of land, all with the stunning backdrop of Giltar Point, Caldey Island and the sea as a constant presence. Truly one of the most impressive locations we have had the pleasure to market, this remarkable home should be essential viewing.

Entering the property from the driveway, you find a central hallway running through the home. Immediately to the right you find a handy cloakroom, with the hall continuing ahead and ending with a sunroom at the rear of the home. To the right there is a door to the music room, with two doors on the left leading into the kitchen and the formal dining room. The dining room enjoys superb views to the rear and has an archway leading into the main sitting room beyond. The music room is a very flexible space which has windows to two sides and would make for a superb home office or ground floor bedroom if required. The kitchen is found to the front of the home and offers a great space and a perfect canvas for a buyer to add their ideal combination of cabinetry and white goods. The main sitting room is accessed from the dining room and offers a superb space with windows to two sides taking in the gorgeous outlook, and a pair of glazed double doors leading out to the garden. The ground floor accommodation is completed with a large utility room next to the kitchen, which has an external door to the side of the home.

Climbing the stairs to the first floor, you arrive on a landing which runs through the centre of the property. On a split landing on your way up, you find the first of two shower/bathrooms on this level. At the top of the stairs, you find the master bedroom to your right, which enjoys simply stunning views to the front and side. Continuing down the corridor, you find a double bedroom to your right and two single bedrooms to your left. The current owners had considered knocking these two bedrooms together to form a large double at the front of the home. At the end of the landing, the hall turns to the right to access a part of the property once used as a ‘granny annex’, which contains a double bedroom, a good-sized single bedroom, a shower room and a first-floor reception room with some of the most stunning sea views in the property. There would be potential to rework this portion of the home to form a lavish new master suite, which would enjoy privacy and jaw-dropping views out to sea.

Externally, the property offers some truly stunning selling points. Surrounding the home are well-established gardens, with a large orchard to the side offering a peaceful and sheltered space. The home also benefits from a detached double garage, an additional single garage, a greenhouse and a summer house. The rest of the grounds comprise four good-sized fields, currently grazed by a local farmer’s flock on an 11-month grazing agreement. All these fields are well drained and enjoy incredible views of the sea and back towards Tenby.

The position of Malvern Lodge is simply stunning, one of the most remarkable settings currently available on the open market. The opportunity to purchase this charming property and shape it into your dream home is one too good to be missed.

The room has a door leading out to the side of the property with easy access to the driveway. The space is finished with a quarry tile floor.

Between Bedrooms 3 and the first-floor sitting room is a good-sized double bedroom with a window to the side. This part of the home once functioned as a ‘granny annex’ for the previous owners and could potentially be reconfigured to form a new large master bedroom suite if needed.

This space enjoys some of the finest views in the home. With windows to three sides, the room enjoys a panoramic outlook to the front which is truly remarkable. This room is currently used as a reception space but could easily work as a bedroom or, as suggested, form part of a new master bedroom suite.

Bedroom five
Positioned at the front of the home, this single bedroom looks out to the approach to the property. The current owners of Malvern Lodge had considered knocking through from this bedroom into Bedroom 6 next door, which would create one large double.

Bedroom six
Currently used as a home office, this space could provide another single bedroom or be knocked through into Bedroom 5 next door depending on the needs of a buyer.

In addition, the property includes a detached double garage alongside a further single garage with garden shed behind it, delivering excellent provision for parking, storage or hobby space. A greenhouse is ideally positioned for keen gardeners, while a charming summer house offers a relaxing retreat to take in the surrounding landscape during the warmer months.

The wider grounds extend to four well-proportioned fields, currently subject to an 11-month grazing agreement with a local farm. Each field is well drained and enjoys outstanding panoramic views stretching towards the coastline and back in the direction of Tenby.

The land at Malvern Lodge offers an exciting opportunity which may be suitable for a variety of uses including camping or glamping, subject to any relevant planning. The current owners had previously applied for planning for three lodges on the field below, Pembrokeshire County Council had said their preference was for block-built properties so potential permission there if a buyer wanted to develop the site.
