Property origin
The detached, three-bedroom home was built by the current owner in the 1980s after he and his wife were given some land as a wedding gift. As such, the home has been constructed to very high standards and benefits from thick walls and deep foundations.
The property was constructed from local red sandstone; this richly-coloured rock is synonymous with the area - for centuries, many well-known buildings in the locality - such as castles, churches and the Ross-on-Wye Market House - have been assembled using this distinctive material.
The property at a glance
The property is set back from the single-track road which connects the homes in Welsh Newton Common. The driveway offers ample parking and there is also a single integral garage. There are two entrances at the front of the property - one leads into the utility room and the other into the entrance hall.
The lounge houses an open fireplace and, as the sun sets, a rosy glow pours into the room.
The open-plan dining room offers plenty of space but the rooms have scope to be extended -subject to the necessary consents.
Upstairs, there is a single bedroom, a double bedroom and a dual-aspect master bedroom, which benefits from its own sink - and there is enough space to add an en-suite bathroom.
Location
Despite its name, Welsh Newton Common falls just inside the English side of the border; the peaceful hamlet is tucked away in a breathtakingly beautiful and tranquil corner of Herefordshire.
The home falls within the catchment area of Llangrove ce Academy - which attained a 'Good' rating at its last Ofsted inspection. The village of Llangrove also offers a popular pub, The Royal Arms, which garners rave reviews online for its delicious food and welcoming staff.
Welsh Newton a short drive – less than five miles – to Monmouth, the beautiful and historic Welsh county town. Because of its location within the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Monmouth has become a thriving tourism hub and its high street offers an assortment of independently-owned boutiques, renowned retailers, a variety of restaurants, welcoming pubs and bars, plus leisure facilities. The town also features various highly-regarded schools – both public and private – which serve the surrounding rural neighbourhoods.
