Nr Ross-on-Wye, Versatile House & 4 Acres

Set back from a quiet lane, this spacious property (circa 3000 sq. ft) is practically surrounded by Herefordshire's glorious rolling countryside and apple orchards. The versatile home is well-suited to those looking for a multigenerational property, as it divides very well as two homes. Set in circa four acres, the property also offers two generous garages and four loose-boxes, making it ideal for those with a passion for animals, vehicles, or of course both.

The property in brief:

After entering the grounds of the property via its double gates and proceeding up the generous driveway, you will find an enclosed Oak framed entrance porch which in turn leads into the reception dining hall, this light and airy room features travertine natural stone flooring (which flows through to other areas of the ground floor), an Oak staircase, and feature windows, one which has etching in the pictorial form of a pinion and gear wheel, whilst there are also double doors leading to the lounge with handmade stained-glass inserts.
The living room itself, is triple aspect and like most other rooms in the property, has near panoramic countryside views, and has a wood-burning stove for enjoyment in the cooler evenings. In addition, there are patio doors that lead to an attractive patio area.
Returning to the reception hall, the staircase here leads up to a galleried landing area, with a large airing cupboard and then to the principal bedroom suite, which comprises of a generously proportioned dual-aspect bedroom, with its own fitted out walk-in wardrobe and modern en-suite with double shower and vanity unit with inset sink, storage and WC.

Situated beyond the dining hallway, is the well-proportioned kitchen/breakfast room, with tiled slate flooring and fine views from its two large windows. The kitchen is fitted out with a range of cream shaker style wall and base units. There are 2 modern Siemens ovens one of which is a conventional oven, the other is a combination unit containing a microwave, 5 ring induction hob and extractor - all of which were installed circa 2020. The composite sink features a Quooker instant hot water tap, and there is a waste disposal unit below. The room is sufficiently proportioned to accommodate a farmhouse style table and chairs. The separate utility room again features a slate tiled floor and has space for two appliances, space for an additional fridge or freezer, and there are wall and base units and an additional sink. A door to the rear garden, offers additional practicality.

The inner staircase hall offers the chance to create a secondary home or annexe. There is abundant use of travertine natural stone flooring in all areas other than the bedrooms, further feature windows, both etched and with hand-made stained-glass inserts, and an Oak staircase leading upstairs. The two generously proportioned downstairs bedrooms are situated to both aspects, one front facing and the other to the rear, countryside views included of course, and both have fitted wardrobe/storage cupboards. The downstairs bathroom features, vanity, wash hand basin, WC and a separate shower enclosure. The combined area here could be well-suited to someone wishing for single floor accommodation, however there is naturally further space available to the first floor.

The upstairs area of this (right-hand facing part of the property) accommodation features three in-line rooms, the first of which is currently used as a home office, and then a bedroom and large storeroom accordingly. All rooms feature rear facing Velux style windows, but the two main rooms also benefit from front facing walk-in dormer windows. There is a large storeroom which is almost calling out for conversion into an en-suite or could be utilised as that often sought-after additional home office or hobbies room. Another potential use for this combined area, could be for creating holiday accommodation, as it enjoys privacy of its own, being detached from the other upstairs bedroom, and accessed from its own staircase.

The great outdoors:

Set back and well situated within its generous plot, the home provides for control and security of one's immediate surroundings, there are numerous garden entertaining areas offering excellent privacy, the paddocks are currently as three areas, one large area to the rear and running down the brook below, the other two nearer to the front, all enclosed with stock fencing and providing opportunity for separation, winter/summer use or even for creating an arena, especially with the larger flat area near to the front. Within the grounds are numerous patio areas (one with pergola and pink flowering wisteria), storage areas, a greenhouse, and established planting of shrubbery, flower borders and established hedging. There are four loose-boxes, with a hard-standing and feed store. There is lighting and power to these areas.

Parking & Garaging:

There is a very generous driveway, which provides ample parking for cars, motorhomes or horseboxes etc. Of the two spacious garages, one is of added height (and with scope for loft storage) and could be used perhaps for a compact camper van, or certainly a large car. Both feature electrically operated roller shutter doors, lighting and power supply, and there is water supply as well as in the first garage a recently installed Worcester/Bosch Combination boiler (2026).
