Llangarron, Ross-on-Wye

 

The property in brief:

Situated within a small group of former farm buildings, surrounded by open countryside, an exquisite converted detached old stone barn completed to a very high specification with bespoke oak joinery and many luxurious touches throughout. The Granary occupies a generous plot with private, established gardens to both the front and rear of the property.

Accommodation is both spacious and versatile. At the heart of the house is a magnificent 37ft open plan living space, which has distinct areas for dining and for lounge use, impressive full-height oak framed windows and French doors feature here and are dual aspect to both front and rear, creating an instant wow factor on entering. There is also the essential wood burner within the lounge area for cosying up on the cooler nights. Another attractive feature found here, is the turning oak framed staircase that leads to the first floor. The room has underfloor heating and attractive engineered oak flooring, as well as a conveniently located storage cupboard.

Steps lead to the recently fitted bespoke kitchen/breakfast area. An impressive range of fitted wall and base units finished in an attractive pale grey colour, with natural quartz worktops and breakfast bar (which are designed and built by a local specialist kitchen company) all help to set the scene. There is space for a range cooker and fridge/freezer along with integrated dish washer and recycle/bin drawers. Flooring is attractively tiled with underfloor heating and leads through to the utility room beyond. There is also a stable door which leads to the rear garden.

The utility room has another stable door, which makes for an ideal entrance for returning with muddy boots and dogs. Here you will also find access to the downstairs shower room and WC and there is a utility area with units and under stairs storage and drying area, and with space for the washing machine and tumble dryer. The refitted cloakroom has low level WC, vanity unit and a small bathtub with shower over. An additional oak staircase from here leads to an independent bedroom or reception above.

First floor rooms:

The first room to greet you on ascending the staircase off the living room, is a magnificent galleried landing area and living space, with its vaulted ceiling and many exposed beams, this characterful, light, and charismatic space is perfect for sitting and reading a book, or simply relaxing and looking out to the attractive and far-reaching views over surrounding countryside.

The principal bedroom suite is once again vaulted to the ceiling and with wonderful, exposed timbers. This triple aspect room also features a Velux style window with solar remote-control blinds and is naturally well it. The refitted en-suite offers a vanity unit, low level WC and tiled out shower cubicle. Like the main bedroom, there are exposed beams and feature arrow slit windows.

From the landing area, there are three further rooms, a single bedroom, an impressive second bedroom and the family bathroom, all of which feature the same exposed timbers and have feature arrow slit windows and vaulted ceilings. The second bedroom could provide for an alternative master bedroom, in as much as this well-proportioned double aspect room, also benefits from a mezzanine level (which is accessed from a paddle stepped staircase) and provides an ideal space for a walk-in wardrobe, or for an additional study or den area.

The family bathroom features a stylish four-piece suite which comprises of a WC, vanity unit, large double shower, and a pretty double ended roll top bathtub with centrally positioned taps.

Off a secondary staircase is a large 24ft bedroom. This extremely spacious room is currently in use as a home office and gym but would make for an ideal bedroom.

Outside:

To the front of the main entrance is a gated access into the private gardens which are beautifully landscaped and enclosed by a mixture of hedging & walling. Beyond the generous parking area is a large lawn area with breath-taking countryside views. Throughout the gardens there are a variety of most attractive trees and shrubs with a wealth of colour during the spring and summer months. There is an attractive terrace area, which runs along the full width of the property, as well as a designated outdoor kitchen/barbeque area. To the rear, the gardens are arranged into two walled courtyards. The attractive rear gardens again cover the entire width of the substantial barn. With a lovely back drop of stone walling, there are a series of areas, each with established shrubbery and specimen tree planting. There are additional features such as a raised pond/water feature, wood store, potting shed, and several areas to relax, reflect and enjoy the peaceful environment.

Location:

Located within the sought-after village of Llangarron situated between the market towns of Monmouth and Ross-on-Wye, both of which offer a good range of shopping facilities, dining, and leisure pursuits. Llangarron is also set within easy access to the major road networks; the A40 is around a mile away and the eastbound road provides a direct route to Gloucester, Cheltenham, and the Cotswolds. Meanwhile, motorists heading in the opposite direction can journey towards the M4 at Newport which gives access to Cardiff and London. In addition, the M50 motorway begins in Ross, and this gives good access to the M5. Llangarron itself has a welcoming village community; there are three venues - The Garron Centre, St Deinst Church and Llangarron Village Hall. Not only do these give residents a place to gather, but a variety of events are staged in these settings, such as community groups, coffee mornings and yoga classes.

The spectacular setting of Symonds Yat, which is one of the most well-known landscapes within the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is a short drive (around ten minutes) from Llangarron. This location is famed for its phenomenal river scenery, woodland expanses, and limestone cliffs. There are many riverside pubs and restaurants which are exceedingly popular with residents and tourists alike, and a wide range of outdoor pursuits; walking, cycling, canoeing and wild swimming, are easily accessible. At Symonds Yat, the Biblins swing bridge, which crosses the Wye, leads over to the Forest of Dean, giving access to thousands of acres of hikes through the wilderness.
