A Detached Bungalow In Need of Refurbishment Positioned Close To The Heart Of The Popular Hamlet Of Bromsash. Mature Gardens And Attached Garage. EPC E

Location

The picturesque riverside market settlement of Ross-on-Wye is the only English town standing within the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Formerly a centre for leather working, shoe making, brewing, corn milling and glove making, Ross became a very busy Coaching town in the 18th and 19th Centuries. When viewed from either of the river bridges, the white painted façade of The Royal Hotel stands adjacent to the fine, 206 feet steeple of St Marys Church. With a population of around 10,000, Ross remains a bustling town and the summer months in particular see many visitors coming to canoe, fish, cycle or alternatively enjoy more leisurely pursuits involving food and drink, perhaps downing a refreshing cider from one of the many local artisan cider makers.

Description

New Hurstans lies towards the eastern outskirts of the hamlet of Bromsash, some 3 miles east of the market and tourist town of Ross-on-Wye and the M50 motorway. Probably constructed in the 1970s, the property is of reconstructed stone elevations under a double pitched concrete tiled roof.

Although perfectly liveable in its current form, certain of the features are somewhat dated, and the property would benefit from an upgrade and refurbishment.

Positioned off the reception hall is a superbly proportioned and most appealing 24' living/dining room with both an open fireplace and windows to two elevations, making it a pleasingly light room. Adjacent is the kitchen/breakfast room, and accessed directly from same is a sizeable conservatory to the rear of the property.

Positioned on the back slope of the roof are 12 PV panels generating electricity. Lawned gardens extend to both front and rear of the property, and fringing the garden are a wide range of established shrubs and young trees.

Living/Dining Room
A welcoming hall opens through to the generously proportioned 24' living room which has double glazed windows to both front and side of the property creating a light and appealing room with a stone fireplace to the eastern external wall. Exposed ceiling timber, part fitted carpet and part timber flooring.

Kitchen/Breakfast Room
Having a wide range of floor mounted cupboards and drawers with double drainer sink unit and working surfaces over together with a range of wall mounted cupboards. A door from the kitchen leads through to the well proportioned conservatory which has solid lower walls with double glazed panels and ceiling with blinds above. Additional door directly to exterior.

Bedrooms and Bath/Shower Room & WC
There are two double bedrooms, the bedroom to the rear of the bungalow having an ensuite wc and wash hand basin. There is also a smaller third bedroom previously used as an office.

Outside
To the front of the property is a lawn with a range of established shrubs and young trees to its perimeter, and a hedge forming the front boundary to the village road. Positioned to the east side of the dwelling and adjoining the bungalow is a single garage with an up and over door.

Pedestrian access around the west side of the bungalow leads past a paved sun terrace adjacent to the conservatory to the rear garden. This again is laid to lawn and fringed by shrubs, trees and hedging species including Mexican Orange blossom, variegated Laurel, common Mahonia, Holly and Portuguese Laurel. Positioned on the rear roof slope are 12 PV panels. Although significant work has been undertaken in the garden recently, there is yet more that could be done.
