Living Accommodation.
Stone steps rise to the front of the property. On entering, the history and character of this home are immediately apparent. A flagstone entrance hall sets the tone, featuring a beautifully curved stone staircase that leads up to the principal living accommodation. From the hallway there is access to a former wine cellar and retail unit, benefitting from direct access to the street frontage. The cellar is rich in character and includes a striking arched workspace, offering excellent potential for storage, hobbies or alternative uses (subject to any necessary consents).

The staircase leads to the main living areas, where a useful utility/wash room is positioned just off the hallway, an invaluable addition in a property of this size.
Continuing through the hall, you arrive at the dining room, a generously proportioned space ideal for entertaining. At its centre sits an impressive stone inglenook fireplace, perfectly suited to a fire basket and crackling logs on a winter’s evening or as a warm focal point for Sunday lunches. Double leaded windows overlook the street frontage, flooding the room with natural light.

The sitting room is equally well proportioned and showcases an abundance of original features, including exposed oak beams, pine floorboards and a charming stone fireplace. Pine French doors open out onto the courtyard, allowing indoor and outdoor living to flow seamlessly during the summer months.

Further through the property is the breakfast room, another spacious and inviting area with a door leading to the rear courtyard. This room benefits from extensive bespoke storage cupboards, flagstone flooring and a large central kitchen island that forms the natural hub of the home, ideal for busy mornings and informal gatherings. To the rear of the breakfast room is a galley style kitchen, fitted with a five-ring electric range cooker, space for a double American-style fridge freezer, and an excellent range of storage units. A convenient ground-floor WC is also located off the breakfast room, completing the accommodation at this level.

Bedrooms and bathrooms
From the beautifully panelled wood hallway, the first staircase leads to bedrooms one through four. Three of these are generous king size double rooms, all offering excellent proportions, alongside a well sized single bedroom. Exposed beams continue throughout this level, with vaulted ceilings and striking oak beamed walls forming a particularly attractive feature.

Bedrooms one and two both benefit from impressive inglenook fireplaces, a wonderful nod to the home’s historic origins. Each of the bedrooms on this level is served by its own en suite shower room and enjoys ample wardrobe and storage space.
Bedroom four is arranged as a family suite, offering space for a double bed alongside two single beds. This room is further enhanced by a charming window seat that overlooks the rear garden and courtyard, creating a peaceful and characterful retreat.

A second staircase, accessed from the breakfast room, leads to bedrooms five and six. Bedroom five is another spacious double room featuring a characterful brick fireplace and a useful walk in wardrobe with additional storage above. Bedroom six is a smaller double room, ideal for guests, family members or alternative use as a study if required.

Also located on this level is the family bathroom, fitted with a large curved bath and a period style suite comprising a wash hand basin, WC and bidet. A particularly clever use of space is the inclusion of a sauna steam room, neatly tucked away and adding a unique feature to the accommodation.

External
To the rear of the property, and accessed from both the entrance hall and the breakfast room, the private courtyard and gardens are located. These offer a remarkable level of seclusion for a home in the heart of the town. The courtyard is finished with flagstone flooring and provides access to an additional storage room featuring extensive bespoke floor to ceiling storage cupboards, along with the gas boiler.
Located is a superb raised, decked and covered dining area with a pergola above, creating an ideal space for summer entertaining and outdoor dining with ample room for friends and family.
Original stone steps rise from here to the main lawned garden, which is enclosed to the side by a high level brick wall, ensuring a high degree of privacy. This is an impressively sized outdoor space for a town property and offers excellent versatility for relaxation and entertaining. A further decked area is perfectly positioned to enjoy the sun throughout the day.
The garden continues to the uppermost point of the grounds, where the reward is a truly breathtaking panoramic view across the River Wye and the surrounding Herefordshire countryside, stretching as far as the Malvern Hills beyond, an exceptional outlook that perfectly complements this historic home.
