Location & Description

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 ma king, 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 faqade 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.

Dean Rise lies approx. 1/3 mile southeast of Ross Town Centre, yet when one is in the rear garden, it is difficult to believe that one is within a town at all, such is the peace and tranquillity.

The house is believed to have been constructed in the inter war period but, in the last few years, the current owners have undertaken extensive refurbishment work resulting in what is now a unique and exceptionally light and appealing, versatile family house.

Many of the principal rooms have glazing to two elevations, and the main windows on the ground floor enable a terrific outlook over the huge rear garden to the south. These major rooms, therefore, receive wonderful natural light for virtually the whole of the day. The 22' lounge flows in an open manner through to the 27' kitchen/dining area. There is a superb glazed sky lantern above the kitchen area bringing in yet further light and two further sky lanterns in the utility off the kitchen. Kitchen units are by Wren, and the flooring in much of this area is appealing engineered Oak. There is a fine brick base & UPVC/glass conservatory, 12' library/study, 18' enclosed porch and cloaks and w.c. also on the ground floor.
The first floor comprises four generous bedrooms, the 18' master bedroom and second bedroom each having ensuite shower room and w.c.. There are two further bedrooms, a family bathroom with separate shower, bath and w.c. and 15' balcony approached from bedroom three or via spiral staircase from the sun terrace. A further staircase leads to the second floor loft area, providing excellent, insulated storage space.

As mentioned earlier, there is an extraordinarily large rear garden, principally laid to lawn, but with shrubs and trees to various perimeters, and with a series of outbuildings including a log store, substantial 13' wooden garden shed, greenhouse and at the bottom of the garden, an 18' garden shed/workshop. Halfway down the garden is a fine brick and timber Pergola, and a 7 ¼ " railway track layout is present at the far part of the garden. Should this not be required, the vendor will remove same. The integral garage is currently in use as a workshop, and adjacent to same is a further workshop/hobby room/home office with a further two sky lanterns. There are 12 P.V. panels on the rear roof generating efficient power. All in all, a quite exceptional, tucked away town property, but within walking distance of all main facilities.

Personal Insight: We have loved living in Dean Rise as it offers easy access to the countryside - whether for a walk by the river Wye, or a walk in the hills and woods - as well as town centre living with main amenities all only 5 minutes' walk away. The house and garden are very quiet with no noise from the road; it is wonderfully spacious, light and airy and we will miss it!
