Overview
Mount Pleasant comprises a beautifully refurbished, four-bedroom detached cottage set in approaching two acres of gardens and grounds. The property lies some five miles southeast of the market and tourist town of Ross and commands far-reaching views over unspoilt countryside from its dominant, gently sloping, hillside location.
Since acquiring the property some 8 years ago, the owners have worked tirelessly to create a generously appointed residence of immense appeal. Virtually the whole of the ground floor has fine engineered oak flooring, and there is superb 26' living/dining room with exposed beams and woodburning stove. Positioned alongside same is the exquisite 18' kitchen/breakfast room with a huge granite topped island together with a comprehensive range of high-end floor and drawer units, again under granite work surfaces. Incorporated within the units are a five-ring induction hob, fridge freezer, oven and combination oven, all appliances by either Neff or Bosch.
Glazed double doors from the kitchen open onto an adjacent timber balcony, and views from both the balcony and all front facing windows extend for miles across unspoilt Herefordshire countryside. A laundry/utility room and cloaks and W.C. complete the ground floor accommodation.
Stairs then ascend to an exceptionally light landing, light by virtue of a huge double glazed window to the rear wall, whilst positioned directly above the stairwell is a beautifully constructed Cupola. Positioned off the impressive master bedroom is the superb en-suite shower room and w.c. approached via a beautiful, frosted glass pocket door which slides away in a wonderfully smooth fashion. There are then three additional bedrooms, most with built in storage, and the outstanding family bath/shower room.
Central heating is from an oil-fired radiator system and there is an ingenious central vacuuming system with outlets on both ground and first floor.
The principal area of garden to the property lies to the south and west of the cottage, and this includes neat areas of lawn with established shrub and flower beds. In addition there is a range of deciduous trees, including a magnificent Weeping Willow. The boundaries are fringed to the north, east and south by adjacent forestry commission woodland. This enviable position ensures the owners are privileged to encounter an abundance of wildlife in close proximity such as deer, badgers and owls.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on September 24, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on September 24, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on October 1, 2022 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
