Broadmead
This four-bedroom country house is encircled by acres of apple orchards and therefore boasts beautiful views over the surrounding countryside. Inside, the bright and airy home carries a plethora of timelessly elegant elements, such as exposed beams, vaulted ceilings, feature fireplaces, quirky elevation changes and intricate ironmongery.
Location:
Glewstone is a small village around three miles from Ross-on-Wye, a popular market town. The high street features an assortment of shops, independently owned boutiques, a range of restaurants, welcoming pubs and various leisure facilities. There are also several supermarkets plus four schools in the town - three primaries and one secondary, all of which boast 'Good' Ofsted ratings.
Glewstone itself includes the esteemed Glewstone Court Country House which predominantly operates as an esteemed wedding venue, but occasionally holds special events for residents; most recently there was a hog roast to raise funds for a local defibrillator.
A series of major road networks are also easily accessible; the A40 is around half a kilometre away and the eastbound 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 can be joined around four miles away, which offers good access to the M5.
The home at a glance:
Broadmead was initially named 'Laundry Cottage' as the earliest rendition of the home was the centre where linen for Glewstone Court was cleaned; a now capped-off well housed within the garage provides the only remnant of this history.
Over time, the home has been extended and reconfigured and it presently serves as a capacious family home with a flexible layout. It is tucked away from a country lane behind a secure and gated driveway.
The main entrance leads into a beautifully bright reception hall, which carries a slate tile floor and a built-in storage cupboard which, much like the other farmhouse-style doors throughout the home, includes ornate ironmongery details.
A door on the right-hand side leads into the dual-aspect master bedroom. A set of sliding glass doors leads out to a private patio, giving an ideal opportunity for an outdoor living space. The spacious bedroom also carries an en-suite bathroom - complete with a p-shaped bath with an overhead shower, an attractive countertop vanity unit, a WC and a heated towel rail.
A hallway on the opposite side of the reception hall leads to the rest of the home. The first room - on the left-hand side of the hall - is an office which includes a fitted desk and fitted bookshelves and overlooks the courtyard in the garden. A step upwards gives access to a dining room; a charming space which features a heavily timbered ceiling as well as a hardwood floor. This is open plan with the country kitchen, and this includes hard-wearing granite worktops, handsome wooden units, a large fitted corner pantry, a double Belfast sink with mixer tap and an opened-up stone fireplace which houses a Rangemaster cooker - which is synonymous with the rural lifestyle.
Beyond the kitchen, there is a substantial utility room which accommodates an American-style fridge/freezer, the Worcester-Bosch oil boiler, wooden cupboards which mirror those found within the kitchen, another Belfast sink and presents space and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer. At the far end, there is a cloakroom which contains a WC with a vintage cistern and a sink. A stable door within the utility room leads outside and offers another practical entrance into the home.
Back in the dining room, some steps on the opposite side of the room lead up to a small landing, which gives access to a snug. A stone fireplace presently offers an attractive nook to display logs but there is a working fireplace, thus presenting an ideal spot for a wood-burning stove. A sliding door leads out to the garden and exhibits the Doward Hills in the far distance.
Another staircase beyond this reception room leads up to the first floor and from here, this splits off into two wings. The branch to the right leads to three double bedrooms, all of which carry exposed beams and sublime elevated views. A light-streamed hallway, linking them also showcases the surrounding apple orchards. Of these bedrooms, the largest offers a vaulted ceiling and a Juliet balcony, and another includes a vanity unit in one corner. Meanwhile, the adjacent wing leads to a light-streamed landing which is large enough to also serve as an office space. On the left-hand side, a door opens into the family bathroom which includes a bath with an overhead shower, a countertop vanity unit, a WC, a bidet and a heated towel rail.
Next door, there is a generously-sized sitting room, which enjoys arguably the best view in the home; an elevated aspect over the surrounding apple orchards. The room includes several striking focal points, such as a partially vaulted and timbered ceiling, and a wood burning stove on a slate hearth - yet another staple of country life. A set of French doors leads out to a large wooden decked balcony and gives access to the garden's top terrace; a lawn is punctuated by a flagstone footpath which extends into a larger patio - giving an ideal space for a freestanding swimming pool or larger barbeque area. At the far end, there is a shed, that gives storage for gardening tools or equipment.
In terms of parking, in addition to the driveway, there is a generous detached garage with electric door.
