Built by a true craftsman who is highly respected locally and, on the site where the old box steel railway bridge that spanned the Wye sat. Box Bridge is a total one off that occupies one of the best positions on the banks of the River Wye as it meanders through the village. The property was constructed in 2009 and has been occupied until recently by the current owners when they decided to downsize. This therefore offers an opportunity to acquire this fabulous property to suit your own timescales.
The house was built in its own impressive style, the open entrance porch is perfect for storing logs for the wood burning stove. The front door leads in the central hallway which has doors off to each room and an open oak staircase to the first floor with a wonderful stained glass window. The main living space is at the rear of the property and focused towards the views of the river and with its south-east aspect the rooms enjoy sunshine for most of the day. The kitchen/dining is large, light airy space, it is well equipped with units, quality appliances and a central island. There are two sets of glazed doors to the patio and windows all of which admire the breath-taking views. There are doors and a glazed screen to the living room which again has further glazed doors and windows to the rear and has a feature fireplace with wood burning stove.
There is a ground floor bedroom, fitted with ample wardrobes. This room could easily be used as a second sitting room but is well serviced to make a great home office. Adjacent to this room is a bathroom with a modern white suite that is tastefully finished and immaculately presented for sale. Off the main hallway is a utility room with fitted units and the oil fired boiler, there is a larder with natural ventilation, a walk in store cupboard and a rear lobby. From the lobby there is a separate WC, a door to the rear garden and a door to the integral garage which has an electric up and over vehicular door.
The first-floor landing leads you directly into what can either be a fabulous library/study or fifth bedroom. This room really captures the essence of the house and you can just imagine being sat at your desk, with a coffee in hand reading the paper watching the water flow by. Glazed doors open to a small balcony, looking over the river which is highly impressive. Bedroom one, has a large window towards the river with wooden shutters and forms its own suite with a bathroom, linen cupboard and dressing room. The bathrooms are all fitted in the same style and are equally well presented and maintained. Bedroom two again looks over river, with wooden shutters and has ample built in wardrobes, bedroom three is opposite and has built in wardrobes. The main bathroom is fitted with a bath, WC and wash basin with lots of built in cupboards.
The second floor is accessed via a paddle step staircase that opens into the centre of one of the three fully decorated and fitted out rooms with sky light and window. These areas have previously worked well as a study, home gym and storage.
The annex is a separate building, perfect for the visiting relatives or extra accommodation, with a garage below with work bench and inspection pit. It has a small ground floor kitchen and shower room and has a spiral staircase up to the living space/bedroom with a glazed sliding door to a small balcony with an external stair down to the garden. Perfect for a relative or gaining some additional income through letting.
The Property sits within the village perched on the Banks of the Wye, with grounds leading down to the river.
There is a shared entrance (with one neighbouring property) that leads into the driveway and provides access to both garages, ample parking for 5 or so cars and leads to the garden.
To the front of the house is a paved area with path to the front door and raised beds.
The rear garden is spectacular as you are fully focused on the river that meanders past, there is a paved patio adjoining the house which has numerous doors that open out from the main living space, there is a wonderful summer house to sit in and enjoy the view and the river as it passes by. A small area of lawn leads down to gated access to the river bank.
To the side of the house is an impressive purpose built workshop, fully fitted with shelving and power. An up and over roller vehicular door opens between the house and the workshop to a private concrete parking area, the door enhances the privacy and the secluded feel at the rear of the house.
