Location

The picturesque riverside market settlement of Ross-on-Wye is the only English town standing within the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Formerly a centre for leather working, shoe making, brewing, corn milling and glove making, Ross became a very busy Coaching town in the 18th and 19th Centuries. When viewed from either of the river bridges, the white painted facade of The Royal Hotel stands adjacent to the fine, 206 feet steeple of St Marys Church. With a population of around 10,000, Ross remains a bustling town and the summer months in particular see many visitors coming to canoe, fish, cycle or alternatively enjoy more leisurely pursuits involving food and drink, perhaps downing a refreshing cider from one of the many local artisan cider makers.

Description
Location & description


Constructed some 22 years ago to the exacting standards of the Architect creator, Leobhan lies some 300yds west of Ross town centre, and commands absolutely stunning views across the famous horseshoe bend of the River Wye. The structure occupies an elevated, cliff top location and thus has no conventional garden to maintain, and offers spacious and truly individual accommodation on several levels. The views from the property are extensive, extending way beyond the river itself across hundreds of acres of unspoilt and undulating countryside towards the Welsh hills in the distance.

Pedestrian access to the river is only two minutes walk away, as are all the facilities of this fascinating and historic market town.

The cleverly designed accommodation occupies the central portion of the structure. To the lowest level is the versatile 45' Recreation room, whilst to the northern elevation is the exceptionally spacious double garage, workshop and wine cellar! Many features of the construction have been designed to mitigate road noise. These include reinforced concrete floors, 6/12/6 double glazing to all rooms, cavity sound absorbent blockwork walls and other features. Central heating is from a Rehau underfloor system, even including the double garage and workshop! In addition to being a unique family home, the versatile 45' ground floor recreation room offers scope for many other potential uses (subject to consent) including

Professional offices (eg. Solicitors/Accountants, Physiotherapy Clinic etc.)

Additional General Notes.

Most internal doors are solid and self-closing to comply with fire regulations. The floor construction is of reinforced concrete, insulation, heating pipes, tongue and groove chipboard with carpet adhesion. Bedroom Four is the only occupied room facing Wilton Road and its Oriel double glazed window also has secondary glazing. The property also has a smoke detection system
