Description
A beautifully extended six-bedroom detached dormer bungalow, offering exceptionally versatile accommodation, a spectacular open-plan kitchen/family room and landscaped gardens enjoying far-reaching views across the Herefordshire countryside.
This detached property occupies a peaceful rural setting in the highly favoured village of Kingsthorne which lies between the Cathedral City of Hereford (6 miles) and the market town of Ross-on-Wye (9 miles) with the M50 motorway link (junction 3) with good connectivity to Birmingham and South Wales. Within the Parish of Kingsthorne there is a bus service and a village hall and further amenities are available in the neighbouring village of Much Birch where there is also a public house, church, a primary school and doctors surgery.
Approached via a quiet country lane, Westwinds is an impressive detached dormer bungalow that has been thoughtfully extended and significantly enhanced by the current owners. The property combines generous and highly versatile accommodation with a wonderful connection to the surrounding countryside, with the principal living spaces and gardens making the most of the far-reaching views to the rear.
A private driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to the property, with a small front garden featuring mature shrubs and large bicycle shed.
On entering, the central entrance hall provides an inviting first impression, with stairs rising to the first floor, useful understairs storage and doors leading to the principal rooms.
To the left, an inner hallway provides additional storage and workspace, with a range of matching fitted units to those found in the kitchen and space for larger appliances. A separate cloakroom/WC and useful utility room are also located here. The utility room has fitted units, a sink, space for appliances and a door providing direct access to the driveway.
Without doubt, one of the property's standout features is the impressive open-plan kitchen and family room. Created by converting the former double garage, this superb space is bright, spacious and designed for modern family living, with a vaulted ceiling and large bi-fold doors opening onto the rear terrace.
The contemporary kitchen is fitted with attractive navy blue, handleless cabinetry, complemented by quartz worktops and an inset sink. There is space for a range cooker, together with a breakfast bar, while the generous proportions of the room allow for a variety of furniture arrangements, whether creating a relaxed snug, family dining area or entertaining space.
A wood-burning stove provides a cosy focal point for the room during the cooler months, while the bi-fold doors can be opened onto the terrace, creating a seamless connection between the house, garden and spectacular countryside beyond.
From the kitchen, double doors lead into the formal living room, another particularly attractive reception space with further bi-fold doors opening onto the terrace and a second wood-burning stove.
Returning to the central hallway, there are three further rooms which provide an exceptional degree of flexibility. Currently arranged as bedrooms/study spaces, these rooms could readily be adapted to suit individual requirements, whether as additional bedrooms, home offices, hobbies rooms or occasional accommodation.
The ground floor is completed by a family bathroom fitted with a traditional three-piece white suite.
The first floor takes full advantage of the property's elevated position and countryside outlook, with large rear-facing windows providing wonderful views.
There are three further bedrooms, comprising two smaller bedrooms and a larger double bedroom, currently used as the principal bedroom. The principal bedroom benefits from useful eaves storage, while a modern shower room serves the first floor.
The combination of six bedrooms and the flexible ground-floor layout makes Westwinds particularly well suited to family life, multi-generational living or those requiring generous home-working and guest accommodation.
The south-west facing gardens are a real highlight of Westwinds and have been thoughtfully landscaped over several tiers to create a series of attractive outdoor spaces from which to enjoy the exceptional views.
Immediately adjoining the main living accommodation is a generous composite-decked terrace, complete with glass balustrade and steps leading down through the garden. A further wooden decked area provides another space for outdoor seating and entertaining, whilst also providing a newly fitted electric sauna, before continuing down to the main lawn.
The garden has been attractively planted with mature shrubs, established flower borders, together with a garden shed.
Beyond the principal landscaped garden, a wooden gate leads into a further productive area incorporating a vegetable garden, greenhouse and orchard, along with mature shrubs and established trees. This additional area provides excellent potential for keen gardeners and those looking to enjoy a more productive garden.
