Notes and Comments:
Situation and Description
In an idyllic setting and forming part of the much sought after parish of Putley, this interesting property is quietly positioned in rolling countryside and set well away from main roads. The pretty village church is within easy walking distance and Alexandra Park is just 2 miles away and is a private leisure facility with a golf course, spa and gym. The very popular and well serviced town of Ledbury (5 miles) is only a short drive away and offers an extensive range of facilities as well as a train station. The cathedral city of Hereford is also within easy reach and the M50 lies just over 10 miles away.
Putley Court is a grade II listed house which dates back to the beginning of the 18th century.
It was converted into just seven individual apartments in the 1980’s and is set in its own mature gardens and grounds all tucked away from the hustle and bustle of life, with far-reaching views. Flat 5 is situated on the first floor and offers spacious two-bedroom accommodation with two bathrooms, a good-sized kitchen breakfast room and a large sitting room, with all the main rooms enjoying fantastic views over the gardens and grounds. The living space would benefit from some redecoration and improvement but offers a fantastic opportunity to purchase a generous-sized flat in an outstanding location.
Initially approached by a long driveway there are parking areas to the front and side. The main entrance to the house is approached via stone steps and double doors that lead into a communal entrance hall with mosaic tiled floor and painted fielded panel walls. A door then leads into an inner hallway and two staircases, the main staircase and a secondary staircase with a stairlift. Flat 5 is accessed from either staircase. The front door then leads into a good-sized reception hall which has a fitted carpet, a Creda night storage heater and decorative cornicing. The sitting room offers plenty of space and includes ceiling cornicing, an Adam style decorative fireplace and two sash windows which enjoy lovely views over the gardens to open countryside beyond. Next door a kitchen/ breakfast room offers plenty of cupboard and working space, as well as a twin bowl sink, a Creda 4 ring hob with extractor over and a built-in oven as well as space and plumbing for an automatic washing machine. A built-in cupboard houses the hot water cylinder, and a sash window again has far-reaching views. There are then two comfortable double bedrooms that have night storage heaters and again lovely views with one bedroom having the benefit of an ensuite bathroom. There is then another bathroom which is accessed from the hall.
From the ground floor inner hall, a door provides access to a large cellar which is shared between the seven apartments.
Outside
The gardens and grounds extend to approximately six acres, they include formal lawns, a separate lake, and a small area of woodland that can be enjoyed by all the residents.
