Overview
Positioned some 5 miles south of Ross and overlooking the valley of the meandering River Wye, Bishopswood Leigh comprises an exceptionally attractive period residence with adjacent former Coach House, standing within approaching ¾ acre of land which is fringed by several beautiful mature trees.
It is believed that the initial house on the site dates back some 200 years, subsequently being substantially extended and altered during the Victoria era, which is the dominant style we see today.
The current owners have undertaken major refurbishment and improvement works in their 33 year tenure of the property, and the house now offers exquisite and wonderfully light accommodation on three levels.
Almost all of the principal rooms on the first two floors are of generous proportions and beautifully appointed, all five first floor bedrooms still for example retaining their original stone, slate or marble fireplaces. The ground floor reception rooms are most appealing whilst the roomy, but currently unused second floor rooms would be adored by children or those perhaps wanting a suite of ‘working from home' offices.
Positioned to the west of the main house is the former Coach House, again of generous proportions, which offers potential for conversion to either granny accommodation or perhaps Airbnb.
To the opposite side of the house are both lawned, veg and soft fruit gardens, whilst the superb large grassy area to the rear of the property is bordered by some magnificent mature deciduous trees and Scots Pines.
All in all, this is a particularly handsome and solidly built residence, and of a type which is increasingly difficult to find.
To those potentially interested, we strongly recommend a thorough internal inspection.
