AGENTS COMMENT
ROCK House is an elegant grade II-listed, six-bedroomed residence situated in an elevated private location with landscaped formal gardens and spectacular views over the River Wye.
Believed to have been built originally in the 16th century, it was rebuilt in the early 19th century and has many Georgian features.
It was know locally as The Mansion House.
It has, in recent years, undergone an extensive restoration and also benefits from a range of outbuildings, including a detached coach house and barrel house.
The main house comprises a reception hall, four reception rooms, a magnificent bespoke kitchen with Aga, extensive cellars, cloakroom, utility, store room and pantry/cold store.
The first floor has a master bedroom, a study/dressing room, two bathrooms and three further bedrooms.
The second floor has two bedrooms, one with a walk-in dressing room and en-suite bathroom and the other serviced by a separate bathroom.
The property is approached via a five-bar gate leading to the driveway having lawns and floral beds to either side, enclosed by a stone wall creating a courtyard style setting.
This is a superb property with grounds extending to approximately 1.6 acres.Council tax band: G, Domestic rates: £3894.38, EPC rating: E
