Location
Ross-on-Wye is famed for being the birthplace of British tourism due to its spectacular scenery. The town is perched on red sandstone cliffs which overlook the River Wye.
The town centre, which is approximately a five-minute walk from Byways, features an assortment of shops, independently owned boutiques, a range of restaurants, welcoming pubs, various leisure facilities, plus a network of countryside and riverside walks. There are also four primary schools and one high school in the town as well as two GP surgeries and a community hospital.
The town is within easy reach of major road networks; Gloucester Road leads towards the A40 and the east-bound road provides a direct route to Gloucester, Cheltenham and the Cotswolds. Meanwhile, motorists heading in the opposite direction can journey towards the M4 at Newport, giving access to Cardiff and London. In addition, the M50 motorway begins in Ross-on-Wye, and this gives good access to the M5 - leading to Birmingham to the north and Bristol to the south.
It is also worth noting that Birmingham City Airport, Bristol Airport and Cardiff Airport are each approximately one hour away by car.


The home at a glance
A path through the front garden leads to the front entrance of the home. The first door leads into an enclosed porch, which gives ample space to take off muddy boots after time spent enjoying the great outdoors. The second door - which includes an ornate stained-glass window - opens into the reception hall which is beautifully bright as a window over the staircase lets plenty of natural light cascade into the expanse.
To the right of the reception hall, there is a characterful sitting room featuring a large bay window, a wood-burning stove, shelving and cupboards built into the alcoves around the chimney breast.
To the left of the entrance hall, is an expansive dual aspect living space which is large enough to serve as both a lounge and a dining room. A set of French doors at the far end lead out to the garden.
The kitchen contains chic, neutral coloured floor-and-eye-level units, as well as a compact integrated dishwasher, basin with mixer tap, an electric oven and an extractor fan. Beyond is a substantial, light-streamed garden room which extends the kitchen. There is ample food preparation space, room for an American-style fridge/freezer, and plumbing for both a washing machine and a tumble dryer. To the left is an office, and that flows back into the capacious living space.
The first floor landing leads to the four bedrooms. The master boasts a large bay window as well as plenty of built-in storage and an en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is dual aspect and includes a set of French doors which lead out to a balcony, with a lovely view over the garden and rolling hills beyond. The third bedroom is large enough to accommodate a double bed, whereas the fourth bedroom would suit a single bed or cot. The family bathroom includes a three-piece white suite and additional facilities are found within two cloakrooms - one downstairs off the reception hall and another off the upstairs landing.

The great outdoors
The attractive wrap-around garden is all enclosed by a close-boarded fence and this includes a patio seating area, a level lawn bordered by shrubs, and a fruit patch - giving rhubarb and raspberries. There is a shed giving plenty of space to store gardening tools and equipment. A door at the far end of the garden leads out to the detached garage, off-road parking spaces and bin storage - all of which can also be accessed from Alton Avenue.
