The Rhos is a delightful and immediately welcoming family home, artfully blending the conveniences of demanding, modern family life with sympathetic additions that echo the retention of its period features. A light-filled home offering room for the whole family to pursue their diverse interests perhaps in the artist’s studio, the Garden room, up into the loft or out into the sweeping gardens.
Nestled in the village of Much Birch the property lies within walking distance of an excellent primary school, GP surgery with dispensary, pub, PYO fruit farm and the village hall that hosts various social groups, weekly markets and screens films. While the amenities of Hereford city or Ross-On-Wye and the M50 motorway lie an equidistant 7 miles away.
The Entry Porch leads into a large, square Hallway which holds a built-in closet, the first example of the array of clever and discreet storage that has been packed into this house.
The inviting Sitting Room has lovely views to the back gardens and a feature fireplace with an electric, flame-effect fire housed in a woodburner. This good- sized room is completed with wooden flooring and display shelves atop cupboards concealing a devotee’s sound system.
The Dining room is a fresh light room with large windows again overlooking the gardens and contains a delightful surprise as double doors lead into an unexpected room. The Artist’s Studio well-lit and fully fitted with ample storage and shelving, would be ideal as a dedicated hobby room, superb home office or a secret hideaway when escape into films, books or the imagination is sought.
The Kitchen/Diner is fully-fitted, with French blue, painted units with high display cupboards and integrated electric hob and double oven, while a walk-in Pantry provides even further storage. The room enjoys the views and light that pour from the Garden Room, an area that serves dual function as Utility room, with a Belfast sink set in a beech countertop providing space for washing machine and dryer and as a Conservatory, with doors out onto a paved patio for outdoor dining.
Upstairs the hallway contains an airing cupboard, storage closet and access to both a crawl space and loft.
The good sized Master Bedroom provides plenty of built-in wardrobes maximised at the base by smart pull-out drawers. The 2 further Double Bedrooms are well sized and with the Single Bedroom all are bright, fresh and enjoy lovely garden views.
The Family Bathroom is a delight with traditional-style white suite, rain-head shower over a bath in which to lie back and glaze at the stars twinkling between the wooden beams on an inky night sky.
Outside The property is encircled by extensive family, indeed football-friendly lawns, with mature trees and shrubs, raised vegetable beds, fruit cage, polytunnel and sheds. The long driveway and turning space provide ample parking.
