An absolute show-stopper of a property and we guarantee you won't have seen anything like this before! Tower House enjoys an enviable position in the centre of the village of Erwood, within the heart of the Wye Valley, with outstanding views to the countryside and that is before we get to the property itself which is truly unforgettable!

Surrounding the property are superbly presented, landscaped gardens, and balconies, providing ample space to relax and enjoy, as well as pedestrian access to the A470 and the centre of the village itself. To the north east of the property is a large formal lawned garden, with garden stores and some more fantastic views over the River Wye and beyond. From here a pedestrian walkway meanders around the rear of the neighbouring properties, leading down to the Cletwr Brook, with a viewing balcony and stepped access down onto the brook itself, which opens up into the River Wye. This is a private, tranquil paradise that needs to be seen to be believed!

Not a fully conventional house, it is an upside-down property where the living areas are on the upper floors commanding stunning views of the Wye Valley. The main elevation walls are a combination of traditional cavity with timber frame to the upper levels. The property benefits from under floor heating throughout.

Double doors from the kitchen lead to an incredible reception room, both in size and outlook, complemented by a woodburning stove and access out to the balcony to take in the views over the River Wye and to the countryside beyond. The reception room leads in to the tower for the first time, with a circular reception room which in turn gives access to the main entrance hallway and WC. A staircase from the tower swirls up to the top floor, which would make an excellent study or library and the views stretch over Erwood to the surrounding countryside.

Stairs also lead down from the tower to the sleeping quarters of this property, with external door to the gardens and a completely unique circular wet room bathroom, enjoying his and hers wash basins, low flush WC, shower and bath. There are three double bedrooms and additionally, a master suite, which has external door to a private balcony, and an en-suite bathroom with additional shower cubicle, as well as wash hand basin and WC.
