Location & Description
Constructed of red brick under a pitched tiled roof approximately 40 years ago, Holly House is located in the tiny rural hamlet of Dancing Green some 4 miles east of the historic market and tourist town of Ross-on-Wye.
Being in an elevated position, the views from both the house and garden are far reaching, looking towards the easily recognisable Norman Church tower of Weston-under-Penyard and Penyard Woods. The peace and tranquillity of this location is becoming increasingly difficult to find, and with the additional bonus of an extensive rear garden, many hours can certainly be whiled away here!
Despite its tucked away position, access to the A40 and M50 motorway are just minutes away, leading to both the Midlands, the South West and South Wales, whilst both the cathedral cities of Hereford and Gloucester are within easy reach.
Kitchen & Dining Room
The 16' kitchen/breakfast room is filled with natural light from the two large double glazed windows. Fitted with a range of floor and wall mounted cupboards, integrated dishwasher and Stoves electric range, the functional work space of the kitchen opens into a 16' welcoming breakfast room with Esse oil fired range and additional storage cupboards. From here a door leads through to a most useful study/utility area. Adjoining the kitchen is the 11' dining room with large double glazed window and tiled floor. This room offers views across the rear garden and beyond. There is also a most useful cloaks and w.c.
Living Room
The covered open sided porch, gives access to the entrance hall, from which a door opens into the 20' dual aspect living room with its striking Oak floor. This room is filled with natural light and has the additional benefit of large sliding doors which open onto the patio and garden beyond. There is also a most appealing feature stone fireplace with inset wood burning stove.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms
To the first floor is the main 17' bedroom with two capacious built in double wardrobes. The views from this window are extensive, across rural farmland to the wooded hills beyond.
The en-suite bathroom has both a free standing roll top bath, separate walk in shower and w.c. This room is also filled with natural light from the large double glazed window.
There are a further three bedrooms, the second also having a large built in wardrobe, whilst the smaller of the rooms is currently used as an office/studio. There is also a family shower room with w.c.
Outside
Approached via shared access, the block paved drive provides ample space for several vehicles and/or a motorhome/caravan and gives access via a side gate to the extensive rear garden where one finds a number of impressive mature trees, including Oak, Lime, Apple and Rowan.
Positioned in close proximity to the rear of the property are several paved seating areas, an aluminium framed greenhouse and wooden gazebo. From here the lawned garden stretches before you, interspersed with shrub planted borders, and secluded seating areas, which allow one to simply take stock of the peaceful surroundings.
To the westerly corner of the garden, is the caged fruit area with Blueberries and Black Currants and former vegetable plot, together with a most useful wooden garden shed.
Within a few minutes walk one also has access to Lea Bailey Woods, ideal for walking dogs, mountain biking or simply enjoying unlimited forest walks.
For those seeking a peaceful, tucked away location, with a home which offers well proportioned accommodation, we feel that Holly House deserves an early internal viewing.
The Market Town of Ross-on-Wye
The picturesque riverside market settlement of Ross-on-Wye is the only English town standing within the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Formerly a centre for leather working, shoe making, brewing, corn milling and glove making, Ross became a very busy Coaching town in the 18th and 19th Centuries. When viewed from either of the river bridges, the white painted façade of The Royal Hotel stands adjacent to the fine, 206 feet steeple of St Marys Church. With a population of around 10,000, Ross remains a bustling town and the summer months in particular see many visitors coming to canoe, fish, cycle or alternatively enjoy more leisurely pursuits involving food and drink, perhaps downing a refreshing cider from one of the many local artisan cider makers.
