Ilo Field Cottage is approached via a quiet rural country lane. The sweeping gravelled driveway leads up to the large Double Garage and extends around the back of the property. An oak glazed front door leads in to a useful porch with quarry tiles and plenty of space for coats and shoes. This in turn leads to a further door and opens up in to a generous hallway with a wooden floor, stairs to the first floor and doors leading off to various rooms. To the left is a Dining Room which has a fantastic feature fireplace housing an old fire and bread oven. The hallway also has a door that leads to the impressive Kitchen/Diner. The Kitchen has a range of base units and has and plenty of space for food preparation, lots of storage cupboards, ceramic sink and electric eye level oven and grill. A feature of the kitchen is the Electric Aga. The kitchen also has plenty of room for a table and chairs if required and dual aspect windows providing lots of light.
A doorway leads into the useful Utility Room with quarry tiled floor and houses a belfast sink, further storage and planned space for a washing machine as well a window overlooking the front of the property. A door from the utility leads to a downstairs w/c. The Sitting Room has a fantastic stone flagged floor and a brick feature fire place with a Villager wood burning stove on a stone hearth. Wooden double doors open up into a large Conservatory which has a radiator and doors that open up into the gardens. The conservatory was added to provide an area in which to take advantage of the panoramic views of the Herefordshire countryside.
Upstairs is equally impressive. The landing is light and spacious with a wooden floor and there are 4 double bedrooms, one of which has been used as a Home Office/Studio. The Principal Bedroom has the benefit of a good sized ensuite that comprises a low flush w/c, built in sink unit with useful storage underneath and a tiled shower unit. All bedrooms have a fabulous aspect and the panoramic views of the Herefordshire rolling countryside are very special. The Main Bathroom is generously proportioned and has a bath with shower over, a low flush w/c and pedestal sink. There is also a heated towel rail and lots of built in storage.
The Cottage sits in approximately a third of acre and the gardens are as impressive as the surrounding location. The wrap around garden has been carefully planned and has different areas to be enjoyed. As you progress up the driveway there are gardens either side which have an array of grassed areas and borders with a wide variety of flowers and herbaceous plants. On the right there is a greenhouse and to the side of the garage there is an excellent log store. The gravelled driveway sweeps around the property and becomes a wide pathway that runs all the way around the property. There is an outbuilding which would make an excellent workshop or provide additional storage if required. This has power and lighting. Carrying on the pathway and you will reach the conservatory that is skirted with a lovely stone wall. This part of the garden is elevated and is again a haven for anyone who is a gardener!
