The Coach House

With origins believed to date from the 16th Century, The Coach House is a beautiful stone and brick built period house under a slate roof (not Listed). The property occupies an accessible location only a short drive from Ledbury and the M50 with easy access to Hereford or to Ross-On-Wye and boasts a wealth of character to include stripped pine doors throughout, quarry tiled floor and numerous fitted storage cupboards.

Continued

Formally a 5 bedroom house, the current vendors have sympathetically converted the property to provide spacious 3 bedroom accommodation with the master bedroom now benefitting from a dressing room and en-suite bathroom with Jacuzzi bath. There is a separate family shower room on the first floor and the 2nd bedroom could easily be divided again to provide a fourth bedroom if required.

Ground Floor

On the ground floor the central hallway gives access to the main sitting room with wood-burning stove and double doors to the outside rear decking. There is a separate dining room, snug with solid fuel fired Rayburn set in an inglenook fireplace, opening into the kitchen which is fitted with a good range of oak units and a cooking stove (electric oven and LPG gas hob). A door from the snug provides access to the rear courtyard and in turn the cellar, divided into 2 rooms the first as a superb utility room and the second for general storage.

Outside

To the outside there is ample parking for a number of cars and a detached barn offering an enclosed workshop with adjacent storage/garaging for at least 2 cars. There is a beautiful terraced deck area adjacent to the house from which to enjoy the view over the garden and neighbouring farm land, and tucked away in a private position, a hot tub and summer house. The gardens are laid mainly to lawns interspersed with a number of mature trees and shrubs including an impressive willow and walnut tree. There is a good sized fish pond with the garden being private and enclosed by mature hedging.

Education

There is a local primary school in Ashperton, a secondary school at Ledbury and the sixth form college in Hereford. The Elms prep school and Malvern College prep school are less than 6 miles away with a good range of other independent schools available in the area.
