Description
Phoenix House is a highly spacious detached property enjoying a private position on the outskirts of Ledbury. The design, influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement, affords 3,653 sq. Ft of light and airy living space.
The accommodation is arranged over three floors and is approached from the ground floor via a wooden staircase leading to a glazed oak framed Veranda. From here a solid wood entrance door leads to an impressive entrance hall with vaulted ceiling, cloakroom, breakfast kitchen with walk in pantry and utility room, formal dining room, elegant drawing room with double height ceiling and a sun room, which opens onto a balcony affording panoramic views across Frith Wood toward Ledbury and open countryside beyond.
On the second floor a galleried landing leads to a guest suite with an en suite shower room and a plant room housing the underfloor heating controls and pressurised hot water tank. There is also access to a balcony, which overlooks the drawing room. On the ground floor there is a large reception hall, which in turn leads to the master bedroom with an en suite bathroom, two further double bedrooms, Jack n Jill style family bathroom and a study/fifth bedroom.
The formal gardens are a delightful extension of the property, principally laid to lawn interspersed with an array of herbaceous beds, established borders, mature trees, shrubs and plants. A superb terrace runs the width of the property which provides the ideal place to enjoy alfresco dining whilst admiring the far-reaching countryside views.
One of the great strengths of Phoenix House is its setting, occupying an elevated position commanding magnificent far reaching views across Ledbury and the rolling Herefordshire countryside beyond. Phoenix House enjoys a south west facing aspect with manicured grounds extending to approximately 1.45 acres.
