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

Occupying a prime position on Church Street in the centre of the historic market town of Ross-on-Wye, Sterling House is an elegant Grade II listed Georgian townhouse that effortlessly combines period charm with practical modern living.

Rich in original character, the home enjoys an abundance of natural light throughout, enhanced by traditional sash windows to the majority of rooms, high ceilings, and an impressive collection of feature fireplaces. The accommodation extends across four floors, providing versatile living space ideal for families, those working from home or buyers seeking a character property within walking distance of the town's excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and amenities.

The ground floor offers a welcoming entrance hall, a beautiful formal sitting room, separate study, generous rear sitting room, kitchen with adjoining utility, cloakroom and useful storeroom. A glazed rear hall/conservatory creates a bright connecting space and provides access to the rear terrace.

To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including an impressive master bedroom with dual aspect windows, together with a stylish family bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath and separate shower. The second floor provides a further double bedroom and additional shower room, making it ideal for guests or older children.

Further enhancing the property is a useful cellar offering excellent storage or potential for a home gym or hobby room, together with an attractive rear sun terrace providing a private outdoor space for al fresco dining and entertaining.

Properties of this calibre and character, occupying such a central location, are rarely available, making Sterling House a wonderful opportunity to acquire a substantial period home in one of Herefordshire's most desirable market towns.
