The Grange

The Grange is a four bedroom bungalow located in Titley, a picturesque village on Herefordshire’s Welsh border. Titley is located just three miles from Kington, a quaint market town with a wealth of amenities including local shops, doctors and schools, and for those looking for more facilities, Leominster, Hereford and Shrewsbury are just a little further afield. The area has a superb reputation for fine dining with the award winning Stagg Inn and restaurant in the village. The gastro dining experience was the first pub to be awarded a Michelin star and attracts foodies from across the UK.

The property, ideal for families or those looking to retire, benefits from a location and views that many home buyers can only dream of. Surrounding the grange are miles of unspoilt countryside and country walks, perfect for those who like to spend a Sunday walking the dogs. “It is a typical rural home. The Grange is peaceful and oh so quiet! You do not see a soul around here,” says the current owner. “The views from the property are incredible too; in front of the bungalow are miles of rolling hills and mature trees.”

The Grange benefits from extensive gardens of manicured lawns and mature trees. Inside the property, most of the generously proportioned rooms have pretty views of the gardens and are therefore flooded in natural light. When I was looking to move, I knew I wanted a big garden,” says Mrs Vaughan, “The Grange has plenty of room outside. There are lovely mature trees with conkers and cherries, and large flat lawns; I get them cut every so often to keep it looking neat.”

The Grange is faced with a beautiful Cotswold stone, allowing the property to blend beautifully with its rural, natural setting. Bought by the current owner in 1994, they have transformed the property into an ideal family home with a great deal of flexibility. “I bought the property in 1994 and in that time we have extensively modernised it. Six or seven years ago we brought the whole place up to date by putting in new windows, patio doors and a new heating system,” says Mrs Vaughan. “My favourite room is definitely the sitting room. It is 34 foot by 15 foot with a Cotswold stone fireplace. There is central heating throughout the home, so it is a great warm place to relax in the winter with a book.”
