This mid-terraced, three-bedroom cottage is encircled by scenic countryside and therefore boasts splendid views of the rolling hills. The well-presented home is tucked away within a tranquil gated development for those over 55 and, despite the rural setting, The Archway is a short drive (approximately two miles) from Ross-on-Wye, a picturesque and well-appointed market town.


Location
Bridstow is a small village around two miles from Ross-on-Wye's town centre. This offers an assortment of shops, independently owned boutiques, a range of restaurants, welcoming pubs, various leisure facilities, plus a network of country and riverside walks.
The village has a lovely community; it contains a village hall - which acts as a headquarters for various groups such as the Rainbows, Brownies, Guides and the WI, and various activities are also staged there, such as barn dances and whist evenings. There is also a primary school that carries a 'Good' Ofsted rating, and this venue is used as a rehearsal space for a local women's choir, the Border Belles. In terms of secondary education, Ross offers John Kyrle High School. It is worth noting that private schooling options are found in the nearby towns of Hereford and Monmouth.
Brock Cottage is set just off a quiet country lane but is a short drive (less than one mile) from the A49, the main road which connects Ross-on-Wye with Hereford. At Ross-on-Wye, motorists can join the A40 as well as the M50.

The Archway.
A paved walkway leads to the impressive arched front door. An entrance porch feeds into a reception hall, which features a tiled floor and exposed brickwork, therefore offering an attractive and practical entrance.
A glazed door takes you to the generously-sized lounge/dining room which is light and airy with its timber ceiling, gas fireplace and large windows. There is also a glazed door which leads outside to the picturesque, low maintenance garden, which benefits from a paved seating area and two timber garden sheds.
Through a door on the right, you will find the kitchen. This space features a timbered ceiling plus a tiled floor. A range of base and wall-mounted units give ample storage space and there is also a sink with a mixer tap, a fan oven, a ceramic hob, an extractor hood and space and plumbing for a washing machine.
The ground floor cloakroom is complete with a low-level WC, pedestal wash hand basin and built-in cupboards.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms, all of which showcase elevated views over the pastoral surroundings. Of these, the master bedroom overlooks a private fishing lake and offers an en-suite bathroom, which contains a bath with a shower overhead, a WC, a basin and a mirror-fronted cabinet.
The second bedroom offers enough space for a double bed and enjoys views to the front of the property. The third bedroom, meanwhile, would ideally accommodate a single bed or may otherwise serve as a study. It carries beautiful arched hardwood double-glazed doors to a Juliette balcony, with a panoramic view across the bordering hillsides and village. Next door, there is a family bathroom, which comprises a modern panel bath with a shower mixer tap, shower screen and fully tiled surround, a basin, a WC and a cupboard which houses the combi-boiler.
