LOCATION & DESCRIPTION Quarry Cottage lies on the extreme rural outskirts of the well served village of Llangrove, some 7 miles south west of the market & tourist town of Ross-on-Wye, and some 6 miles north of the historic town of Monmouth. For those concerned with fast access to motorway connections, the A40 dual carriageway linking Ross and Monmouth feeds directly into the M50/M5 & M4 motorway networks. The Cottage stands on the south western fringe of Llangrove village and enjoys a glorious south westerly aspect across meadows and fields towards wooded hillsides in the distance. Despite this rural and tranquil location, one is within 10 minutes drive of the aforementioned dual carriageway. We understand that the oldest portion of the Cottage dates back to the Georgian era, with subsequent extensions being built some 160 years and then 100 yrs ago, whilst the western end of the Cottage was apparently constructed some 25 years ago. Principal room sizes are generous, and almost all of the main rooms have windows to the south west, thus enjoying the wonderful outlook. There is a wealth of exposed timbering in the oldest portion of the Cottage, whilst certain rooms have exposed stonework. Facilities within the village include an excellent local pub, primary school, church, village hall and gardening club. Moreover, there is a thriving community spirit within the village.

Drive carefully through the village, passing the school on your right and the Church on your left. Continue past the Royal Arms public house, thereafter taking the first acute turn to the left (not the early left turning at 90 ). Continue down this short lane, turning right at the first little junction and then very soon left, driving down past Hazeldene on your right.

Two double glazed windows with wooden venetian blinds to front. Exposed ceiling beam. Natural wooden floorboards. Three wall mounted light fittings. Two access hatches to roof void. OUTSIDE A wooden pedestrian gate and flag stone path lead along the front of the property to the front door, and also enable access onto the Flag Stone Sun Terrace onto which the French doors from the living room lead directly. This sun terrace is of overall max dimensions approx 35 x 10, and is a splendid spot from which to look out across the front garden towards unspoilt countryside. Lying to the south west of the sun terrace is the Two Tier Lawn, adjacent to which are shrubs, herbs, and young trees, species including Holly, Rosemary, Sage, Hebes, Forsythia, Skimmia, Bay, Rose, Viburnam, Laurel, Fatsia and others. Positioned to the exterior of the north west wall is a Timber & Polycarbonate Roof Structure giving a Covered Potting/Log Store Area. Stone steps lead from the front of the lawn down to the Parking/Turning Area. This is currently merely compacted earth with a little gravel, but lends itself to possible further re-surfacing, creating potential parking space for further vehicles. A five bar vehicular wooden gate delineates the boundary of Quarry Cottage. Positioned close to the western boundary is a Wooden Garden Shed of approx external dimensions 14 x 7 6.
