Fromes Hill And Area Surrounding……

Fromes Hill is a linear village situated approximately mid way between Hereford and Worcester, both approximately 13 miles, on the A4103. Ledbury and Bromyard are also equidistant, around 7 miles to each. The motorway access at Worcester and Ledbury offer excellent nation communications via the M50/M5 and wider motorway networks, with Cheltenham approx. 50 minutes and Birmingham an hours drive away. With the railway station at Ledbury, London is accessible in 2.5 hours and central Birmingham in just over an hour.

The village is very well equipped with a number of shops situated on the small trading estate. These include Village convenience store, café, outdoors/army stores, barber and car repair workshop. There is a village pub, The Wheatsheaf Inn which has rooms and serves traditional food throughout the day and opposite an Indian Restaurant and takeaway.

Approximately a mile away is the Hop Pocket Shopping Village with garden centre, food and wine, gifts, café, gallery, shoe shops, clothing, furniture etc.

Fromes Hill stands 192m high and there are quite spectacular views towards the Black Mountains and Welsh Hills as you descend the hill towards Hereford. To the east are the Malverns, and there are some lovely footpath routes, trails and bridleways. The area is renown for its stunning scenery, rolling hills and countryside.

The Village Church, a grade II listed building, ‘St Matthews’ was constructed in Victorian times and became the parish church in 2018.

Church Bungalow sits opposite St Matthews, set well back from the A4103 and adjacent to open countryside on a small single track road which leads through the village of Halmonds Frome and eventually leads to Bromyard.

Church Bungalow

The property itself has undergone a complete transformation during the past 2 years. It was purchased in a very poor condition with ramshackle buildings and an overgrown garden and has been completely renovated by the current owners. It was stripped back to brick and timber so is essentially now almost a new build retaining the mellow red brick original character walls with new tiled pitch roof and quality rubber flat rooves, all new electrics, plumbing, insulation, new double glazed windows, rain water goods, fascias etc. There is a recently fitted Wren kitchen with integrated appliances, fully fitted bathroom, dining area opening into the sitting room with a woodburning stove installed in 2023 and two double bedrooms. There are bespoke hand made doors throughout. To the rear is the former base of a conservatory leading directly from the sitting room. The rear gardens are completely landscaped within a boarded fence surround offering both privacy and safety for children or pets.

The property is approached from the lane over its own driveway which offers parking for 6 vehicles, and a gated access leads into the front courtyard gardens. There are two very useful concrete slab foundations approx. 14 x 12 and 10 x 10 which would be useful should a purchaser wish to erect a garage or workshop etc.
