Location
Garway Hill is a popular walking destination within Herefordshire as the summit offers far-reaching panoramic views of rugged landscapes. New House, which is perched on the side of this peak, also showcases this magnificent scenery and, to add even further to the idyllic feel of this setting, there is a wildflower meadow next to the property and seeds - such as those from purple orchids - have spread to the garden.
The property is just shy of a half-hour drive from the cathedral city of Hereford which offers various supermarkets, shops - both independently-owned and chain stores - plus restaurants, pubs and leisure facilities.
The home at a glance
The front entrance to the home – a stable door - is tucked away behind an enclosed porch. This leads into the dining room, one of the four reception rooms, and this includes an antique range cooker, surrounded by an exposed stone fireplace, as its centrepiece. There are also exposed beams which further add to the delightful olde-worlde feel of the property, and these are featured in the other rooms on the ground floor.
The sitting room also includes a stone fireplace and this houses a wood-burning stove – this room in particular offers a cosy space to spend the colder months of the year. The study, the last reception room on this level of the home, has space to accommodate two sets of desks and chairs. The window displays a magnificent, far-reaching view of the stunning scenery and this could offer an inspirational spot to those working in the creative industry. There is also access to a cellar, which gives plenty of additional storage space.
The fourth reception room is found on the top floor. Plenty of sunlight cascades into this triple-aspect space and this features a lovely outlook of the beautifully kept garden and neighbouring wildflower meadow. There is another wood-burning stove tucked away in the corner.
Back on the ground floor, the country kitchen includes an Everhot electric range cooker. There is also a larder, additional wooden cupboards and space for an under-counter fridge in the space under the staircase. A separate utility room gives additional storage room and can accommodate a washing machine, dishwasher, and a chest freezer.
This level of the property also includes a shower room, which is found next to the study. If needs be, the study could be adapted into a bedroom and its proximity to the ground-floor shower room could perfectly suit an older or less mobile family member.
The top floor of the property houses four bedrooms, all of which have built-in storage. The master bedroom also features a vanity unit housed within one of its built-in cupboards and this is beautifully framed by ornate, decorative tiles. Further washing facilities are provided within the family bathroom which, much like the study, carries an excellent view of the boundless countryside. It features a bath with shower overhead, plus a walk-in shower, basin, bidet and WC.
The first floor also includes a galleried landing which is spacious enough to be adopted into a guest room if required.
The great outdoors
The garden is a real sensory joy; colourful, scented flowers bloom in abundance around the gently, sloping lawn, a variety of lovely birdsong fills the air and a water feature, next to the old water pump, emits a tranquil bubbling sound.
There is a picnic table in the front garden, which offers a lovely alfresco dining area and the Clee Hills near Ludlow, Malvern Hills and May Hill can be spotted from this area. Behind the home, next to the workshop, there is a patio which is used as a restful sun terrace.
The garden also includes a summerhouse which has electricity, as well as a veranda and this is used as a guest room during the warmer months of the year.
Just outside the rear door of the property, there is an entrance into a substantial workshop and further outbuildings giving storage for gardening equipment, are dotted around the garden.
There is ample opportunity for residents at New House to grow their own produce; as well as an enclosed kitchen garden and greenhouse, there are several highly productive fruit trees around the expanse - including apple and quince.
At the top of the garden, there is a strip of land that has been left to grow wild to help the fauna flourish, and a small woodland area which would give younger members of a household a perfect place to play.
In terms of parking, there is off-road parking as well as a roomy garage-cum-workshop which is equipped with power and lighting, as is the bike shed next door, which could easily be adapted into a garden office or studio.
