Location
Yatton is almost equidistant between Ross-on-Wye and Ledbury, two very beautiful and popular market towns, both of which offer highly-regarded schools, supermarkets, restaurants, pubs, leisure facilities, retailers and independently-owned shops.
The A449, the main road that connects the two towns is around 350 yards from Rocks Place; meaning that the property benefits from the convenience of the route but the peaceful setting is unaffected by any road noise.
The property at a glance
Rocks Place was once part of a hotel but now the semi-detached property acts as a spacious home; because of its origins in hospitality, each of the four bedrooms feature en-suite facilities and the impressive, bright and airy master was once the hotel's three-bed family room. These rooms are connected through one long corridor, and this features many tall, thin windows to let light pour in. On this level, there is also a large walk-in linen cupboard.
On the ground floor, the large entrance hall has been adapted into a snug and an electric wood effect woodburner offers a warm welcome to visitors. To the right of here are two cloakrooms, one of which leads to the utility room which also offers a secure walk-in store currently utilised as a wine cellar.
To the left of the entrance hall is the open-plan lounge and dining room. This area's focus point is a second electric wood effect woodburner which is framed by exposed brickwork beneath an oak mantle. This room is connected to the country-style kitchen. Its oak floors are complimented beautifully by wooden effect work surfaces, which offer plenty of food preparation space. The cupboards and dresser have been beautified with chalk paint, adding further to the lovely rustic aesthetic. A cosy conservatory is also connected to the lounge/dining room on the opposite side. This area offers a perfect reading nook and boasts a beautiful view of the flourishing garden.
This garden is a real show-stopper; an assortment of shrubs and colourful flowers grow in abundance and several seating spaces have been scattered around so that all corners of this lovely landscape can be enjoyed - the vibrant summerhouse at the top of the garden offers the best space of all; it boasts another electric stove, meaning that the summerhouse can be enjoyed all year round. In previous years, the current owners have kept chickens and grown their own produce on the land - and there is ample space for a new owner to re-establish this.
