Hollybush House is situated on the edge of the hamlet of Munderfield in the beautiful Herefordshire countryside. Ideally positioned to explore the riches that the Marches have to offer, it is just three and a half miles from the market town of Bromyard which has an excellent range of shops, schools, library, theatre and leisure centre. The historic town of Ledbury is 9.5 miles away where further amenities and attractions can be found as well as a railway station with direct services to London and Birmingham. The Cathedral cities of Hereford (14 miles) and Worcester (16 miles) are within easy commuting distance and have all the amenities and facilities a city has to offer. Malvern, just over 11 miles away, has a good theatre and, along with Hereford and Worcester has excellent independent schools. Motorway access is available in Worcester (M5/Jct.7) and near Ledbury (M50/Jct.2).
Hollybush House, once a thatched cottage and an Inn, is now an attractive cream rendered house which has been extended and refurbished over the years. This spacious home could benefit from some updating to provide a most attractive family property set in lovely grounds with far reaching views. Plenty of character has been retained with flagstone floors and timbers remaining in many of the rooms. The attractive porch has arched doors, brick floor and double aspect windows which lead into the very spacious sitting/dining room with exposed ceiling timbers. At the sitting room end is a stone fireplace with beamed lintel and wood burning stove on a stone hearth and a decorative stone faced niche to the side. The dining area has a bay window and a charming black metal fireplace. The windows from both rooms look out to the gardens and surrounding countryside beyond, including the Malvern Hills. A door leads into the rear hall and lobby with flagstone floors and stairs up to the first floor. The lobby is ideal for coats and boots and a door leads out to the garden. From the lobby is the kitchen with flagstone floors, beams and a range of fitted wooden floor and wall units with integrated dishwasher and fridge, single ceramic sink, built in oven and microwave. At the heart of the kitchen is the inset Aga with decorative rough plaster hood. An open doorway takes you into the spacious breakfast room with wood burning stove and full height window looking out onto the covered patio. A door opens into the conservatory with terracotta flooring and panoramic views to the Malvern Hills, May Hill and the Welsh mountains. Double doors lead out to the covered patio area. From the rear hall, flagstones continue into the large utility and room beyond, both of which have attractive wall and ceiling timbers. The utility has a door out to the garden and is fitted with handmade wooden floor and wall units, composite sink, wood worktops and space for washing machine and tumble dryer. A stable door leads to the additional room with a large stone and brick fireplace and wood burning stove. This room is currently used as a hobby room. A cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation. Upstairs, the light landing has doors off to four of the bedrooms. The master bedroom is a lovely light room enjoying fantastic views. There is a walk in wardrobe and steps lead down to the en-suite bathroom with double ended bath and basin built into a wood unit with drawer and cupboard. Of the three further bedrooms, one has built in wardrobes and an ornate metal fireplace whilst another is well suited as a study with its built in shelving. From the main landing is the secondary landing with a shower room and two bedrooms, one of which has a built in wardrobe and basin unit.
The property is approached from a private tarmacadam drive which sweeps round the house to the ample parking area to the rear. Rose covered fencing makes this a most attractive drive. The large, private gardens with level lawns, specimen trees and well established mixed borders and beds provide year round interest and colour against the lovely rural backdrop. The patio area adjoining the house is covered by a pergola which is clothed in clematis and roses providing a perfect spot for outside dining. The paddock areas are all hedged and fenced and divide roughly into three areas. One has a good selection of specimen trees and adjoins the copse which is useful for providing wood for the log burners. The middle paddock has an
outbuilding with paved floor and a log
store, whilst the third has a small orchard
of fruit trees and garden shed. A gate
leads into a fenced off vegetable plot with gravel paths, raised beds and soft fruit area ideal for those wishing to grow their own produce. The gardens and grounds are absolutely delightful and enjoy the most splendid views. By the parking area is the large garage with room for at least four cars.
