DESCRIPTION
Peterstow Manor is a classic English Country house believed to date back to the Norman period, substantially extended during the early 19th Century. It was originally built as the Rectory to the neighbouring 11th century St Peters Church. It is of brick and stucco construction with a hipped slate roof and is Grade II Listed. Peterstow Manor sits well in its grounds with a centuries old Cedar tree and is approached off a private lane and down a long drive to a wide parking area. It is entered beneath a large porch into a long reception hall with doors off to the well proportioned reception rooms to either side. These include a splendid drawing and dining room with a host of period features including sprung floors, 12 foot high ceilings, coving and decorative plasterwork, fine fireplaces and large sash and bay windows overlooking the gardens. The former kitchen is now the sauna and gymnasium, whilst the modern kitchen lies to the rear with an impressive array of built-in units, a large central island with marble work surface, and wide openings through to the breakfast room and conservatory beyond. An impressive cantilevered staircase with fluted handrail and stick balusters leads up to the large landing with doors off to the 4 principal bedrooms, all of which being en-suite and decorated to a high standard with 3 further bedrooms and 3 shower rooms (en-suite) to the rear.Peterstow Manor is situated in a secluded position close to Ross-on-Wye surrounded by rolling south Herefordshire countryside. Ross-on-Wye has all the expected shops and services of an important market town, whilst Peterstow has an inn, post office and general store. There are good private and state schools throughout the area with Monmouth Habadashers and Hereford Cathedral School being particularly popular. The excellent road communications provide fast access to all the major centres and the national motorway network. The A40 runs south through Monmouth to the M4 at Newport, and north to the M50 and M4. There are a host of recreational opportunities close by.
