Crossways is an exceptional detached residence occupying a beautifully landscaped plot of approximately 0.4 acres on one of Ross-on-Wye's most sought after residential avenues. Behind electric sliding gates and approached via a substantial resin bound driveway, this impressive home has been thoughtfully remodelled and enhanced to create a versatile lifestyle property extending to approximately 2,275 sq ft, including the detached garage.
A covered entrance opens into a welcoming reception hall, providing an immediate sense of space and quality. Stairs rise to the first floor, whilst a cloakroom serves the ground floor accommodation.
The centrepiece of the home is the magnificent open plan kitchen, dining and reception room measuring 28'4" x 21'2" (8.64m x 6.45m) maximum. Designed with modern living in mind, this remarkable space effortlessly combines cooking, dining and entertaining areas beneath one roof. Extensive glazing and direct access to the terrace create a seamless connection between the interior and the gardens beyond, ensuring the outdoor spaces become a natural extension of the home during the warmer months.
Adjoining the kitchen is a practical utility room, whilst the conservatory, measuring 16'7" x 7'3" (5.05m x 2.21m), provides a delightful additional reception area from which to enjoy views across the beautifully maintained grounds.
A separate study measuring 8'5" x 7'8" (2.57m x 2.34m) offers the ideal home office, reading room or creative workspace. Bedroom Four, measuring 11'9" x 10'0" (3.58m x 3.05m), enjoys a pleasant front aspect and is conveniently positioned alongside the family bathroom.
The principal bedroom suite occupies a private ground floor wing, creating a peaceful retreat away from the main living accommodation. The bedroom measures 15'0" x 11'8" (4.57m x 3.56m) and is complemented by a dressing area and en suite shower room.
To the first floor, a central landing serves two generous double bedrooms. Bedroom Two measures 17'10" x 12'1" (5.44m x 3.68m) maximum, whilst Bedroom Three measures 18'3" x 10'6" (5.56m x 3.20m). Both rooms benefit from useful eaves storage and are served by a first floor cloakroom.
Outside, the property continues to impress. Electric sliding gates open onto a generous private driveway providing extensive parking and access to the detached garage measuring 17'10" x 10'2" (5.44m x 3.10m). Formal lawns and manicured hedging frame the front elevation, creating an attractive approach and a strong sense of privacy.
The rear gardens are a particular feature and have been carefully arranged into a series of distinct outdoor rooms. Immediately adjoining the property are extensive stone flagged terraces, providing elegant spaces for al fresco dining, entertaining and relaxation. Retaining walls and stone steps lead to an elevated formal lawn, beautifully framed by established borders, ornamental planting and mature specimen trees.
Positioned within the formal gardens is a detached garden room measuring 10'9" x 10'10" (3.30m x 3.30m). Enjoying attractive views across the grounds, this versatile building offers excellent potential as a home office, studio, gym or entertaining space.
Beyond the formal gardens, the grounds open into a wonderfully established parkland style setting with expansive lawns, mature evergreens and a variety of ornamental and productive planting. Fruit trees provide seasonal harvests, whilst raised vegetable beds create an attractive kitchen garden area for those wishing to embrace a more self sufficient lifestyle.
A separate area of the garden has been thoughtfully designed as a peaceful space for reflection and quiet enjoyment, surrounded by mature planting and enjoying a wonderful sense of seclusion.
At the far end of the plot stands a detached summerhouse measuring 10'8" x 11'4" (3.26m x 3.46m). Set within its own private surroundings and overlooking the gardens, it provides a tranquil retreat for reading, entertaining or simply enjoying the beauty of the landscape throughout the seasons.
Crossways is far more than a substantial family home. It is a lifestyle property offering beautifully balanced accommodation, exceptional outdoor space and a rare combination of privacy, versatility and convenience, all within one of Ross-on-Wye's most desirable residential locations.
