Location

The hamlet of Stretton Grandison is situated approximately 10 miles east of the cathedral city of Hereford and 9 miles northwest of the market town of Ledbury, which offers a range of local facilities and amenities including shops, schools, churches, restaurants, a theatre, doctors surgeries, community hospital and a mainline railway station with direct links to Birmingham New Street and London Paddington. It is also accessible for the cities of Worcester, Gloucester and Cheltenham. The M50 motorway situated south of Ledbury and the M5 at Worcester provide excellent national communications. Local facilities are available at Newtown Crossroads ( approx. a quarter of a mile away) where there is a filling station and a general store/post office.

Description

Situated on the edge of Stretton Grandison adjacent to the A417, Broadlands is a beautifully presented detached cottage set in a good sized private garden, with a generous parking and turning area leading to a detached garage and workshop.

The cottage has been improved and extended over the years offering deceptively spacious accommodation. On the ground floor is a reception hall with cloakroom off, two generous reception rooms and a re-fitted breakfast kitchen with bi-fold doors opening onto the private rear garden. To the first floor is the master bedroom with dressing/ lounge area, two further bedrooms, one with en-suite shower room and a separate family bathroom.

A particular feature of the property is the large garden which is laid mainly to lawn, interspersed with a lovely selection of mature shrubs and mature trees. For the keen gardener there is a market garden with raised vegetable beds and an orchard to include Victoria plum, damson, pear, apple and cherry trees. Immediately adjacent to the cottage is a gravelled seating area to enjoy drinks and alfresco dining whilst enjoying the garden views.

The current owners have made the most from the generous garden having built a covered BBQ Hobbit Hut with seating and a garden room.

The agent recommends an early inspection to appreciate all that this wonderful family home and garden have to offer.
