This capacious, double-fronted property is set within the heart of an idyllic village.

The residence also affords a new owner an excellent opportunity to put their stamp on the property.
Location
The village of Whitchurch is highly sought-after. The idyllic community is found in the heart of the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and offers many crown jewels in the form of its local amenities, and arguably its most dazzling is the Church of England Primary School, which boasts a coveted 'Outstanding' Ofsted rating. In recent years, this has been placed in the top 2% of schools nationally for the progress that children make in reading, writing and maths.
The village features a popular shop, Woods of Whitchurch which also operates as a reputable coffee shop and takeaway, there are several other hospitality venues in the village and a selection of reputable riverside pubs and restaurants are within walking distance in the spectacular setting of Symonds Yat - which is famed for its phenomenal river scenery, woodland expanses and limestone cliffs.
There are many magnificent walking routes and outdoor pursuits close by. In addition, the Biblins swing bridge, which crosses the Wye, leads to the Forest of Dean - giving access to thousands of acres of hikes through the wilderness.
The two popular market towns of Ross-on-Wye and Monmouth are also close by. These both offer highly regarded secondary schools, supermarkets, a variety of restaurants, pubs, leisure facilities and independently owned shops.
Whitchurch is also ideally placed for those requiring good transport links. The A40 is nearby, and the eastbound road provides a direct route to Gloucester, Cheltenham and the Cotswolds. Meanwhile, motorists heading in the opposite direction can journey towards the M4 at Newport, giving access to Cardiff and London. In addition, the M50 motorway begins in Ross-on-Wye around seven miles away and this gives good access to the M5 motorway - leading to Birmingham to the north and Bristol to the south.
The closest bus stop to 1 West View can be found outside Woods of Whitchurch approximately 50m away.
The home at a glance
The main entrance into this deceptively spacious end-of-terrace house leads into a reception hall - an attractive space that carries a Victorian tiled floor. A set of double glass doors creates a lobby, which creates a space for visitors to remove shoes and coats.
There is a bright and airy dual aspect sitting room found beyond here, which features a limestone fireplace housing a multi-fuel stove. There is also shelving built into an alcove which gives a pretty space to display family photographs and trinkets. On the opposite side of the reception hall, there is a second reception room which is presently used as a study but could instead serve as a snug, playroom or hobby room. Next door, there is a recently fitted cloakroom.
The reception hallway continues, past a space for an old telephone desk - before concluding before a substantial dining kitchen, a charming heart to the home. This includes exposed beams plus an open archway that creates a natural divide between the cooking and dining zones, plus a set of French doors which let natural light cascade into the expanse. The formal dining area includes shelving and cupboards installed within an alcove, giving a lovely area to display and store tableware. The kitchen includes a sliding door into a pantry, a built-in fan heater, a cooker, space and plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher and plenty of room to accommodate a table and chairs.
The first floor is a characterful level of the property as it includes quirky elevation changes plus exposed timber framing. The first door on the left leads into a commodious family bathroom that contains a bath, a walk-in shower, a WC, a vanity unit, plenty of storage space and a large airing cupboard.
A few steps from here lead to a hallway which gives access to the four bedrooms. The two largest are both located at the front of the home, above the two reception rooms. One of these includes a fitted dressing table and fitted wardrobes - complete with ample hanging and drawer space. Meanwhile, the other features an en-suite shower room plus a built-in wardrobe containing the Saniflo for WC. The two smaller bedrooms are both situated at the rear of the home. Each overlooks the beautiful rear garden and the larger also includes under-window storage plus a bijou lobby.
The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped and boasts a striking backdrop of the surrounding hillsides. The area closest to the home includes a sheltered space, giving an ideal spot to enjoy a cup of morning coffee.
The garden slopes up a gradual hill to a patio seating area and lawn. The space is bordered by well-established shrubs, vibrant blooms and wildflowers and, at the top, there is a glorious magnolia tree next to an extensive summerhouse which presents a generous storage space. It is worth noting that, as there is light and power to this area of the garden, this structure could be replaced by a garden office.
