Location
The rural village of Kings Caple is situated in South East Herefordshire and lies in an Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Within the village there is a church, village hall and a primary school. Kings Caple is within easy reach of the market town of Ross on Wye (approx 6 miles), which provides a wide range of amenities including shops, pubs, hotels, restaurants and leisure activities. The Cathedral City of Hereford is approximately 11 miles distant and the popular town of Ledbury is approximately 12 miles distant, both with mainline railway stations providing direct links to Birmingham and London. Transport connections are well served with access to the M50 (Jct 4).
Description
The Croft is a most interesting part stone detached property centrally situated in the village. Dating back in parts to the 1800's, the property was subject to a considerable extension in the 1970's and offers scope for further enhancement with the potential for an independent annexe.
The accommodation extends to approximately 2500 sq ft and is arranged on the ground floor with a canopy entrance porch, breakfast kitchen, utility room, cloakroom, dining room, living room, garden room and a studio/additional reception room. On the first floor a landing leads to the master bedroom with a Juliet balcony, four further bedrooms and two bathrooms.
One of the great attractions of The Croft is its position, set in delightful mature grounds extending to approximately 3.25 ACRES. The grounds comprise a large well established garden mainly laid to lawn with a feature terraced rockery and an additional area of paddock. The grounds were once used as a Horticultural Nursery and there are two large commercial greenhouses, together with other useful outbuildings.
Given The Croft's extensive grounds and location within the centre of the village, there may be potential for residential development (subject to the necessary permissions and consents).

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
