Pontshill, Ross-on-Wye

4 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Ross-on-Wye

Overview:

Recently remodelled with a loft conversion along with an additional single storey extension, Braed'or is now a contemporary four-bedroom, detached family home set over two floors within a 0.64-acre plot. There are numerous large picture windows capturing the fantastic views of the countryside, found throughout the property, and accentuated even further by its elevated position. In addition, there is ample parking for several cars with gated driveway and well-designed landscaped gardens, offering discovery of the garden's initially hidden secret areas. This individual home is deceptively spacious with a contemporary feeling inside yet retaining character outside.

Seller's Insight:

We purchased a dated Bread'or just as we went into lockdown, so the first twelve weeks were spent in the garden, discovering lots of hidden treasures, which had been neglected for years. Once our plans/drawings had been accepted to include a loft conversion and kitchen extension we then turned our attention back to creating our family home. It's been a massive project and we took photos along the way. We're proud of creating a beautiful family home that can be passed on to the next owners for their continued enjoyment.
