Location
Wisteria Cottage is situated in the heart of Ledbury, which is a thriving and expanding town which has a range of local facilities and amenities including shops, schools, churches, restaurants, theatre, doctors' surgeries, community hospital and a mainline railway station, with direct links to Hereford, Worcester, Birmingham New Street, Oxford, Reading and London Paddington. The cities of Hereford, Worcester and Gloucester are all approximately 16 miles distant with the M50 motorway available approximately 4 miles to the south of the town.
Description
Wisteria Cottage is a most charming Grade II listed townhouse situated in the heart of Ledbury. The property was lovingly and skilfully redesigned by the current owners 25 years ago to create one dwelling from two properties. Parts of the property are understood to pre-exist 1820, and the house is mentioned in Pevsner's Architectural Guide. The accommodation boasts a number of noteworthy features including sash windows throughout, four pairs of beautifully preserved cruck beams to the first floor and a first floor sun room opening onto a south west facing balcony.
It's namesake is derived from the magnificent wisteria, which climbs the front of the house, and is understood to have been planted in 1880. It sweeps across the front of the property and intertwines with the first floor balcony to create a private viewing platform from where views across the town can be enjoyed.
The accommodation has been designed with flexibility in mind and whilst it lends itself to being a wonderful family home, it would also suit the needs of those looking for an additional income.
On the ground floor the accommodation comprises a welcoming reception hall, a downstairs double bedroom, shower room, impressive drawing room, dining room with adjoining snug, farmhouse style breakfast kitchen with feature AGA and walk in pantry, and a study. There are twin doors in the drawing room, dining room and breakfast kitchen allowing free circulation space for a family and is great for entertaining.
On the first floor a landing leads to the master suite with a dressing room and en suite shower room, two further double bedrooms both with en suite shower rooms and a family bathroom. There is also an attractive sun/reading room with double doors leading onto a first floor balcony, which enjoys fine views across the town.
In addition to the living accommodation, the property benefits from a comprehensive range of cellar rooms extending to approximately 1400 sq ft. The cellars all have good standing head height with power, light, water and heating connected. There is also a connecting door and staircase which leads into the garages. The cellars offer an exciting opportunity to create a superb home office/games room/wine room/cinema room.
Outside, there is ample off road parking and a large planted south west facing courtyard providing coverage and a wonderful splash of colour almost all year round. To the rear of the property there is a secure yard with access to a TRIPLE GARAGE.
With so much to explore, the selling agents strongly recommend an internal inspection.
