The Property

Glazed Entrance Porch: An unusually generous entrance porch; a smart and practical arrival space. Full height glazed leaded windows and French doors look out over the front garden and the open fields beyond. A further internal door leads through to the hall.

Reception Hall: A long and well-proportioned hallway running the full depth of the property, finished with recessed ceiling lights and solid oak doors throughout. The carpeted staircase with oak handrail leads up to the first floor, with an understairs store cupboard below. A glazed sliding patio door at the far end opens directly onto the front garden, giving the hall a light and airy feel throughout the day.

Sitting Room: A spacious and comfortable reception room with a double glazed leaded window to the front and glazed sliding patio doors to the rear garden, allowing the room to open directly onto the patio. The focal point is a wall mounted living flame gas fire with a contemporary surround, creating a striking feature. Coved ceiling and warm, neutral décor throughout.

Kitchen/Dining Room: A particularly impressive open plan space that forms the heart of the home, benefiting from a picture window and glazed door looking out onto and opening to the rear garden. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of almond shaker wall and base units with granite worktops, upstands and sink & a half with rinser tap. Appliances include a Bosch fan oven, combination microwave and warming drawer, five-ring gas hob with glass splashback and extractor over, and an integrated Neff dishwasher, along with an integrated fridge/freezer. The central peninsula provides further preparation space and houses the laundry appliances. The dining area is a generous size, with ample space for a family table, and benefits from recessed ceiling lighting throughout.

Bedroom 1 with Ensuite: A well-proportioned double bedroom with a deep window overlooking the rear garden. A door leads to the ensuite shower room, which is neatly fitted with fully tiled walls in a contemporary stone effect finish, glazed electric shower enclosure, small vanity basin with storage below, low flush WC and chrome towel radiator.

Bedroom 2: A further good size double bedroom with a leaded window to the front, enjoying pleasant views over the front garden. A comfortable and well-lit room.

Bedroom 3/Snug: An exceptionally flexible room with leaded double glazed windows to two aspects looking over the front garden, giving it excellent natural light. Currently arranged as a sitting room, it could equally serve as a third double bedroom, study or playroom.

Family Bathroom: A stunning contemporary suite, finished with floor to ceiling wall tiling in a warm stone effect finish. The suite comprises a full size bath with central taps and showerhead attachment, glazed corner enclosure with a thermostatic twin headed shower, low flush WC, and a vanity basin with mixer tap and wall cabinet with lit mirror. Finished with recessed ceiling lights, chrome towel radiator and secondary electric towel rail.

Landing: A characterful landing with a sloped tongue and groove boarded ceiling, Velux window with solar powered blind, oak balustrade and oak door to the main bedroom. The landing also provides access to two eaves storage cupboards, a large attic store room housing the boiler, and a second attic prime for conversion into an extra room or upstairs bathroom (subject to relevant permissions). 

Bedroom 4/Study: A generously sized room under the vaulted dormer, with a tongue and groove boarded ceiling, leaded double glazed window enjoying views across the surrounding area, and two sets of louvre door fronted eaves storage cupboards. Currently used as a home office and sitting room, this is a versatile space could serve equally well as a fourth double bedroom, studio or hobby room.

Attic Store Room: An impressive walk-in store room at over 9m in length, accessed from the first floor landing. Fitted with boarded walls and strip lighting, housing an updated Worcester/Bosch gas combi-boiler. This offers an excellent amount of easily accessible storage rarely found in a domestic property of this type.

Outside

The property is approached over a wide tarmac driveway with security posts, leading to a substantial detached garage block with electric up and over door, side and rear windows, side door with canopy porch, and electric light and power. The garage is larger than most; with the option of adding a stud wall to create a dedicated utility, or large workshop space.

At the front, steps rise from the drive to the entrance porch, flanked by retaining brick walls and lawn frontage. A mature screen of evergreens provides privacy from the road, while the porch and first floor bedroom both enjoy beautiful open views across the Herefordshire countryside.

The rear garden includes a generous stone paved patio with raised planters sitting immediately off the sitting room and kitchen, opening to a wide, level lawn enclosed within closeboard fencing, with a greenhouse to one side. The garden is well screened and private throughout, with an outside tap, power sockets, and a hardstanding area with raised sleeper borders at the rear of the garage block. The garden also has two side gates either end, accessing the front garden and driveway.
