Rosemesne is such a desirable and unforgettable home that the current owners have purchased it twice. There was such reluctance when circumstances dictated their move the first time that they snapped it up when they moved back to the area approximately 8 years ago. On their return they vowed to enhance this magical location into a haven for wildlife and there they have lived among the abundance of flora and fauna ever since. The property, surrounded by its own land has wonderful views of the garden and woodland from each and every window. Step inside to find a study just off the main entrance hall, where working from home in this peaceful haven is a pleasure. From the entrance hall doors open into the kitchen and dining room. The kitchen has a range of both base and wall cupboards with granite worksurfaces that wrap around a central island. The island has an integral 5 ring electric hob and plenty of storage solutions. Further integral appliances include two Neff ovens. There is also a tall fridge and freezer included in the sale and space for a dishwasher. Double Belfast sinks are perfectly placed under the window overlooking the garden. The kitchen also benefits from having an enviable pantry. At the far end of the kitchen a door opens into the rear entrance area that provides access to a spacious utility room, cloakroom and a cloaks cupboard housing the Worcester oil fired boiler. For relaxing and entertaining choose between two reception rooms, a generous bright and airy sitting room and a cosy formal dining room. The dining room has an enormous stone inglenook fireplace with a multi-fuel stove. Enter the sitting room where an abundance of windows allow light to flood into the space. Remnants of the original external stone wall make a lovely feature in this room. The extension has floor to ceiling glazing with deep sills incorporating windows seats that not only run the width of the room but curve around following the corner glazing. Wonderful views across the garden towards the pond can be appreciated from here where you can sit back, relax and watch the dragonflies dancing across the pond. From the entrance hall stairs lead up to a landing area large enough to house a desk or comfortable chairs. Walk through an archway and into an inner hallway that leads to the bedrooms. The principal bedroom has a whitewashed feature exposed stone wall, fitted wardrobes and dual aspect views across the garden. The en-suite shower room has a white suite to include a bath with a shower over, w.c, wash hand basin and vanity unit. Adjacent to the principal bedroom is a single bedroom that is currently used as an office but would make a superb dressing room for the principal bedroom. Two further en-suite double bedrooms both have fitted wardrobes and wonderful views across the front aspect. The Goat Shed (Annexe) The Goat Shed is a delightful, detached, self-contained annexe that has an open plan living and sleeping area. Sliding doors from the main living area reveal a private, enclosed garden with an array of foliage, flowers and plants. Step up into a kitchen / breakfast room with a range of cupboards, a stainless steel sink, an integral oven and four ring LPG gas hob and space for an undercounter fridge. The space saving breakfast table folds up against the wall when not in use. The shower room has recently been refurbished and offers a stylish white suite to include a corner shower cubicle and a power shower, a wash hand basin inset into a vanity unit and a w.c. Outside A long sweeping driveway leads you to an off-road parking area for many vehicles and a double garage and workshop. Follow the pathway to the house and established lawned garden. Within the garden is an attractive lily pond and a variety of colourful flower beds. In addition to the enclosed garden is a productive fruit and vegetable produce area set amongst the remnants of the stone walls of the original cottage. Having previously been a small holding and cider orchard, the rest of the land includes approximately 6 acres of young trees, nearly 1000 planted in 2016 using a Woodland Trust mix. Further mature trees border The Hudnalls National Nature Reserve. A restricted byway cuts through part of the land and four public footpaths outside of the properties boundaries allow for direct access to walks to places such as Bigsweir Bridge, St Briavels Village, The Hudnalls and the Offas Dyke footpath.
