luxury houses for sale Ross-on-Wye, United Kingdom

This handsome former parsonage with 19 acres of land, a charming two-bedroom holiday cottage and five stables is set in the beautiful Herefordshire countryside, close to the England/Wales border and to the market town of Monmouth. Ideal for a family looking for a spacious country home, it is well situated for the excellent local schools, convenient for commuters, and offers the chance to keep horses, ponies or livestock and an opportunity to run and possibly further develop a lucrative tourism business. With an impressive, Georgian appearance yet with a wonderful, welcoming ambience, the Grade II listed house has six bedrooms, four reception rooms, a first floor library, adaptable attic rooms and study space for home working. The property was developed into an eighteenth century parsonage from a small seventeenth century farmhouse. It was extended further in the nineteenth century, when the Victorian wing was added. Its wealth of historic features include exposed beams and open fireplaces, formal Georgian rooms with high ceilings, decorative cornicing and period fireplaces and Victorian features including cast iron fire grates and built-in cupboards. It is a generously proportioned house, but to me, it doesn't feel grand, it feels homely. It is lovely at all times of the year. In the summer it has a beautiful quiet coolness about it. In the winter, with the log burners going, it is brilliant for lying on the sofa with the dogs and watching TV. And it really comes into its own when you are having parties. It has a lovely flow and because of the great room sizes, you have to have a lot of people in the house before it feels even slightly full! What I also love about it is the land and my favourite view is looking back at the house from the fields. The house is approached along a circular carriage driveway. The attractive facade is almost symmetrical, with large sash windows, French doors onto the garden from the Victorian wing and a central entrance door with a canopied porch and a decorative fanlight over. The front door opens to a large hall which is full of historic character, with flagstone flooring, exposed beams and a beamed fireplace with a log burner. Through an archway, an attractive elliptical staircase leads to the first floor. To one side of the hall is a study and an inner hallway leads to a stunning, light and airy drawing room/family room. The elegant, high ceilinged drawing room has a period marble fireplace and French doors to the front of the property, with their original shutters. Further French doors lead out to the south-facing, sun-trap side garden. The drawing room opens up to the family room which has a further set of French doors to the side garden. The family room has a fireplace with a wood burner. Either side of the fireplace are attractive arched recesses with built-in shelving. Situated in the oldest part of the house is an atmospheric dining room, with flagstone flooring, an exposed stone wall and original beams. A corner fireplace, with a timber mantel, houses a wood burner. A wide, period ledge and brace door opens to the kitchen. There are lots of quirky, historic features in this house, like this doorway, which is supposed to be wide enough for cider barrels to be rolled through it.The kitchen has flagstone flooring and solid wood units with granite work surfaces. There's a halogen hob, a Bosch double oven and a Rayburn set into an alcove. A window over the kitchen sink looks out over a terrace and herb garden to the paddocks beyond. There is a utility room adjacent to the kitchen. In this part of the house there is also a cosy, dual aspect TV room, with a flagstone floor, a wood burner set in a fireplace with a wood mantel over and a Victorian built-in cupboard to one side.Upstairs, there are two pretty bedrooms in the Victorian wing, one with a similar built-in cupboard and a period fireplace with a cast iron grate. These two rooms share an adjacent shower room. Two further, charming bedrooms, one with exposed beams, share a bathroom. In the Georgian part of the house, two spacious double bedrooms each have an ensuite bathroom. The first floor accommodation also includes a large library with built-in shelving along one wall, a central, exposed beam, a window overlooking the front garden and a fireplace with a cast iron grate. Off the library is a study. The adaptable accommodation in the attic comprises two rooms each with a galleried area above and a further room with Velux roof windows and an exposed A-frame. There is also a bathroom on this floor. The property stands in lovely gardens, screened from the road by a large Beech hedge and established trees and planting. A large circular lawn to the front is bisected by a brook, alongside which there are mature trees including oak, sweet chestnut and a Corsican pine. There is also a large magnolia and along the front of the property are attractive shrub borders. There are enclosed, south-facing lawns at the side of the house and a paved terrace runs along the back of the property, where there is a herb terrace, an oblong fish pond and a further area of lawn. Alongside the house is a detached former barn which has been converted into a high quality, contemporary self-catering unit with a cottagey feel and a successful letting history. There's a ground floor bedroom and a charming loft bedroom with exposed oak beams. Both bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms and there is a large open plan living space, comprising kitchen, breakfast area and sitting room. Outside there is a parking area for two cars and a lawned garden. The grounds also include a stable block with five stables, a level area of land previously used for a manège and three well-fenced fields, currently used for keeping sheep but ideal as horse paddocks. There could be scope to further develop the tourism business, subject to planning, with the amount of land providing, for example, the opportunity for holiday yurts.

Situated on the edge of Haywood Forest, the original dwelling was designed as a picturesque gamekeeper's cottage around 1800 for the old Belmont House estate.

It was also an exciting renovation project and within commuting distance from Bristol for work.The house and the two bed annexe were in need of some care and attention and I have sympathetically upgraded them throughout. Work included plastering all rooms, rewiring, relaying floors, modernising the kitchen and bathroom and opening two original, bricked up, fireplaces. The real developments were the conversion of the small adjoining barn into the dining room, a fabulous sunroom and the creation of a massive, waterproofed and heated basement room.I love all the rooms, but am very proud of the stunning, curved, oak framed sunroom; that is always flooded with light and has pretty views to the garden: it is the ideal spot to settle and relax with a cup of tea or a glass of wine. The kitchen is where we spend most of our time and perfect for the passionate cook but also the place for family kitchen meals, plus the welcoming snug corner with a large sofa and wood burner for times when you want to relax with a coffee. Upstairs two bedrooms have large dormer windows where you look across the countryside to the Malverns and May Hill. Each room has a delightful mix of warmth, comfort and sophistication.The Rowans is a hospitable home where our guests can appreciate the elegance of the dining room, the warm and cosy sitting room with its huge fireplace and intriguing, original window that looks through to the kitchen; whilst the basement is the perfect games and party room.

It is a haven for wildlife with sightings of hedgehogs, rabbits, woodpeckers, jays and buzzards. In the back garden there are the remains of a Roman-era forge and well, hinting at the site's ancient past. Separately, in the front garden a charmingwisteria-covered walkway welcomes you, and in summer becomes a magical tunnel, the perfect setting for alfresco meals. The garden really has become an outside living room, enjoyed many summers as a haven of peace and natural beauty.We are so lucky to be just a few minutes' walk to the local garage and grocery store, or to the Severn and Wye Smokery with its food hall, coffee shop, restaurant and fishmonger. Westbury on Severn and Newnham on Severn are very short drives, and Gloucester is just over eight miles away, surrounded by the beautiful Severn Valley and Malvern Hills.The house has given me twenty-one happy years but is now too big and the time has come to downsize.

Wonderful walks begin directly from the doorstep, and the surrounding area is ideal for numerous outdoor interests; equestrian pursuits being very popular.

My husband was looking for light from the north and whilst this house is south-facing, he was able to set up a studio in the large, back, north-facing bedroom.The vendor says the gardens and grounds have also been a joy.
