Situation Golden Grove is situated in a sought-after rural location just 2 miles outside the thriving and popular market town of Ledbury, which is located east of Hereford and south-west of the renowned and beautiful Malvern Hills.

The surrounding countryside is characterised by traditional farms and wooded hills and is renowned for its scenic and unspoilt rural appeal.
Golden Grove * This delightful period dormer bungalow was built c. 1948 and offers generous and flexible accommodation.
* The modern fitted kitchen/breakfast room offers ample storage and benefits from an integrated double electric oven (Hotpoint), a dishwasher and a fridge-freezer. The integrated gas hob is serviced by bottled gas. There is a great larder cupboard and a central island with space for barstools for more informal dining. A dining area is situated just off the kitchen and has direct access to the decked patio via a pair of French doors.
* There is a separate utility room with further storage and sink unit, along with space and plumbing for a washing machine, and a useful separate WC, also located off the kitchen in the rear entrance lobby, which has direct access to the parking area and garden.
* Two good-sized reception rooms; large sitting room and a further good-sized family room benefits from sliding patio doors to take in the wonderful views, which are visible from most rooms in the property.
Golden Grove Ctd. * Three good double bedrooms and family bathroom on the ground floor, one bedroom with fitted wardrobes, with the main bedroom being situated on the first floor and benefiting from a large, walk-in dressing room and an en-suite shower room. The modern bathroom has a bath with shower over and a heated towel rail.
The Outside * The property is approached via its own private drive, which leads off this rural lane to the ample, gravelled parking area.
* Golden Grove is well situated within its plot and is surrounded by secluded and private gardens and backs onto private land.
* The established gardens are mainly lawn, planted with a variety of mature shrubs, flowering plants and specimen trees including Magnolia, Acer and Monkey Puzzle. There are also some apple trees, which could be added to, to create a small orchard area, as well as a greenhouse and a veg patch which could be reinstated if desired.
* A decked seating area leads directly off the kitchen/breakfast room, providing a lovely outside space to enjoy the surroundings, perfect for summer BBQ's and for entertaining and socialising.
* There are two, detached outbuildings; a double garage/workshop (10m x 4.9m) with lighting and electricity supply and a smaller outbuilding (4.7m x 2.4m), historically a single garage, which also houses the boiler and provides a useful space for gardening equipment, bicycles, etc.
The Outside Ctd. * The property is not overlooked and enjoys superb views over the surrounding farmland and countryside, and towards Marcle Ridge.
