HAWKS Wood House as it is now known was formerly the laundry house to the nearby Burton Court. The property is finished to a high standard throughout with quality fittings whilst retaining its Victorian characterful features alongside some modern improvements.

Approached from the rear, the boot room gives access to the former laundry room. The utility room with w/c, a range of kitchen units and sink are accessed from this room as well as downstairs bedroom with en-suite shower room and walk in dressing room. The dining room leads onto a superb single storey extension housing the kitchen with vaulted ceiling, a range of modern kitchen units, windows to three aspects, French doors to rear garden. Off the dining room is a cosy sitting room with Clearview woodburner and door to front vestibule with pleasant seating area overlooking the front garden.

On the first floor there are two double bedrooms, both of which have two larger than average en-suite bathrooms. Bedroom one has a range of fitted wardrobes with handing and shelving space and naturally subject to consent both en-suites offer potential to be made into further accommodation.

The house has ample off road parking to the rear together with a separate drive which leads to a large garage. The gardens have been landscaped and have areas laid to lawn, decorative shrubs, wild meadow and also a large fish pond.

All in all the property sits in just under half an acre on a predominantly level site with a small area tilting gently from north to south where it meets adjoining farmland.

At the rear of the property is a lawned area bordered by a tall and mature hedges, shrubs and trees. An area laid to chippings with an oak pergola wraps around the back and side of the house. A mature and well established vine covers the pergola providing shade on this the south aspect. At the front is an ornamental area with hedging surrounding and a lawned area sweeping across the west boundary towards the south. To the side of the garage and beneath the main lawn is a well landscaped area with paths, raised beds behind retaining sleepers leading down to a beautiful fish pond having a wealth of ornamental flowers and shrubs.

In the gardens are a variety of fruit trees, a productive walnut tree and a large productive Japanese cherry tree.

Lower Burton is a scattered rural hamlet 14 miles to the north of Hereford centre. Kington town lies within 10 miles and Leominster lies within four miles and has a wide range of amenities.

The property itself stands alone and is located in an elevated position along a quiet country road. With the grounds gently sloping away from the property facing south, the property enjoys a tremendous rural outlook across adjacent farm land and hills in the distance.
