3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Crofts Lane, Ross-On-Wye, Herefordshire HR9

Charming period town house set along the cobbled and characterful Crofts Lane in the very heart of Ross on Wye. Offering flexible accommodation across four floors with a home cinema, three bedrooms, private garden and the rare advantage of allocated off street parking.

Tucked away along the charming cobbled setting of Crofts Lane, this delightful period home enjoys a truly special position in the very heart of Ross-on-Wye. Known for its attractive street scene, Crofts Lane is a pedestrianised lane where seasonal bunting is often strung between the buildings, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere and a genuine sense of community rarely found within a town centre location.

Despite its peaceful feel, the property is just a short stroll from the wide range of independent shops, cafes, restaurants and everyday amenities that make Ross-on-Wye such a popular market town. Situated on the edge of the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the town offers exceptional countryside, riverside walks and outdoor pursuits.

Excellent road connections via the A40 and M50 place Hereford, Gloucester and Cheltenham within easy commuting distance, while Bristol, Birmingham and Cardiff can all be reached in around an hour. For a home so centrally positioned, the added benefit of private off street parking to the rear is a rare and valuable advantage.

A large sash window draws in natural light and looks out towards the garden. The room centres around a wood burning stove set within a traditional mantel with granite hearth, while stripped timber floorboards and built-in shelving within the alcoves add both character and practicality.

The kitchen beyond measures 6'8" x 15'7" (2.05m x 4.76m) and is fitted with classic shaker style wall and base units, glazed display cabinets and under cupboard lighting. Integrated appliances include a gas hob and electric oven, alongside a ceramic sink, plumbing for a washing machine and space for a larder style fridge freezer.

Exposed stone walls and beams create a striking backdrop, while a fireplace with tiled surround and timber mantel forms an attractive focal point. Currently used as a cinema room, the space could equally serve as a games room, hobby space or additional reception area. A staircase from this level also provides direct access to the garden.

Second Floor

Stairs continue to the second floor where an impressive bedroom measuring 13'11" x 18'10" (4.25m x 5.75m) can be found. Painted original floorboards and an exposed beam add character, while windows to the front and side allow plenty of natural light. Access to useful eaves storage is also available.
