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

Location & Description
Hillingdon comprises a fine detached period property which occupies a dominant location on rising ground just a 1/3 mile south of Ross town centre. The elegant, three storey house thus has far reaching views from both front and rear elevations, and its location means that all town amenities are available within walking distance. Constructed we believe around 1900, all principal rooms are of generous proportions and there are many fine period features throughout. For those who are looking for a distinctive property within the town, we thoroughly recommend a full internal inspection.

Drawing Room
A beautifully proportioned room with fine double glazed bay window to front and having both picture rails and cornice to ceiling. Impressive slate fireplace with recessed wood burning stove.

Kitchen & Sitting Room
Generously appointed kitchen with superb bay window receiving morning sunlight and additional bay window to front elevation, these two sections subdivided by a wide archway. Highly efficient recently installed woodburning stove.

Lobby & Garden/Sun Room
The presence of a ceiling in this room means that it is usable throughout the year. A most appealing room with direct French Door access to both rear sun terrace and garden.

Bedrooms & Bath/Shower Rooms
The first floor boasts three excellent double bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms with w.c. (one en-suite).
The second floor offers two superb 24' bedrooms, each with amazing views, and a shower room and w.c. shared between them.

Outside
To the front of the property is a neatly laid and beautifully designed paved sun terrace approached via a most attractive wrought iron archway. Attractive shrubs form a most appealing front border.

A paved pathway alongside the north side of the house leads to the rear patio, approachable also from the garden room. A range of outbuildings to the southern boundary include a Utility Room, Separate W.C. and two useful store rooms. The main portion of the rear garden comprises low maintenance Astro turf and a rear gate enables access to the parking spaces and double garage. There is also a further attractive Garden Store.
