Situation

Lazy Acre is situated within a desirable and very accessible rural location, off a quiet country lane within the beautiful Herefordshire countryside. The property lies within the parish of Putley; conveniently just 7 miles from the thriving market town of Ledbury. Many of the surrounding villages form part of the “Woolhope Dome” which preserves and enhances the high-value landscape of the surrounding countryside, characterised by orchards and traditional farms. This area offers a sought-after rural quality of life combined with excellent links, both locally and to the rest of the country.

Lazy Acre

Lazy Acre is a modern, detached bungalow which was built around 1977. This spacious property offers versatile accommodation and has great potential, with a modicum of internal remodelling and updating it would make a fantastic family home.
An anteroom leads off the hallway through to the very generously proportioned kitchen-dining room, certainly the heart of this home. Benefitting from a range of country-style fitted cupboards and a walk-in pantry, there is plenty of storage available, along with space for a fridge-freezer. A 2-oven electric Aga integrated electric oven and hob provide good cooking facilities.

Lazy Acre (continued)

A separate utility room off the rear lobby provides additional storage and space/plumbing for a washing machine/dryer. There is also another WC by the rear door.
Two spacious reception rooms provide elegant day-to-day living space, with the main sitting room featuring a Jotul wood-burning stove. Two pairs of sliding doors lead to the patio and garden. The second reception room opens to a sunroom which has direct access to the garden and an external covered area.

Lazy Acre (continued)

There are three, good-sized double bedrooms, one with an en-suite WC and hand-wash basin, doubling up as a Jack & Jill WC off the entrance hall. The second room has built-in wardrobes and a Jack & Jill en-suite bathroom. The third bedroom is accessed off the anteroom to the kitchen and has an en-suite bathroom.
There is ample storage throughout the property by way of several walk-in cupboards and airing cupboards.

The Outside

The property is approached off a quiet rural lane and accessed via a private driveway, opening to a large, gravelled parking area. A detached brick-built double car port sits adjacent to the entrance gateway.
A large patio terrace is situated off and accessed from both of the reception rooms, and is a lovely, secluded space to sit and enjoy the garden and tranquil surroundings.
The established garden has a mix of lawned area and established trees, shrubs and flowering plants. This is now quite mature and might benefit from some TLC, with plenty of scope for keen gardeners.

The Outside (continued)

The rear garden can be accessed from either side of the property via existing paths.
There is a large, detached timber outbuilding to the rear of the house which offers potential for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary permissions.
