Location
Cherry Orchard is located less than 1 mile from the thriving and expanding town of Ledbury and within easy access of the M50 motorway, which is approximately 4 miles distant along the Gloucester Road.
Ledbury 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.
Description
Occupying a secluded woodland setting, Cherry Orchard is a charming detached cottage offering well proportioned accommodation with scope for further extension and improvement (subject to any necessary permissions) to create a fine contemporary home. From its elevated position, the property enjoys views across the surrounding countryside toward Marcle Ridge.
Benefitting from electric night storage heating, wood burning stove and partial double glazing, the accommodation on the ground floor comprises entrance porch, dining room, living room with wood burning stove and breakfast kitchen. From the ground floor, there is also access to a one bedroomed annexe, which could be used for a dependant relative or adapted to create a home office. On the first floor, a landing leads to three double bedrooms, which all enjoy a dual aspect, and family bathroom.
Outside, Cherry Orchard is positioned against the back drop of an old quarry adjoining Conigree Wood. For those who enjoy exploring the outdoors and walking, the property sits on the edge of a variety of paths that lead through Conigree Wood and Ledbury Park toward Eastnor. The garden belonging to Cherry Orchard is mainly laid to lawn with mature trees and borders stocked full of spring bulbs.
