Pembridge is one of the most famous black and white villages in Herefordshire with its large number of Medieval timber framed style properties, stooped in history dating back to before the Domesday Book. The village has a thriving and friendly local community and an excellent range of village amenities including a number of public houses and restaurants, farm shop, popular primary school, village hall and church to name just a few. The market town of Leominster (7 miles) and Kington (6 miles) offers a further range of amenities with the cathedral city located approximately 16 miles to the south.

DESCRIPTION Set in the heart of this beautiful village, Ye Old Steppes offers a fantastic opportunity to acquire a Grade II listed detached residence, set in a substantial plot, offering a multitude of opportunities for new owners including the main residence, separate annexe/holiday cottage, fabulous village shop together with lovely mature gardens, separate garage and parking.

Ye Old Steppes This imposing property is approached via steps leading up to the front of the property which the current owners are using as a shop. There are two large bay windows allowing natural light to flood through. The older part of the property was a Rectory around 500 years ago and boasts fantastic original timbers and fireplace inset with a wood burning stove and beautiful exposed wooden floorboards. The room could be a living space, but the vendors have enjoyed running this as a tea room and as it is now, a village shop. An opening which would have originally been a door leads to another room where there is tiled flooring, doors to the front and rear and a cloakroom fitted with a WC and basin. The living room was an Georgian addition and has an original fireplace and full sash bay window. Along the hallway is the kitchen which is fitted with wall and base units, a Rangemaster gas cooker and space for a breakfast table and chairs. There is a stainless steel sink and stable door to the side. Steps lead up to the back kitchen which has additional base units, space for a fridge/freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer. There is a further stable door to the rear. Taking the staircase to the first floor, the original character features and charm continue with wooden floorboards throughout. The landing has two windows to the side and exposed timbers. The sitting room has a fabulous window which is of historic significance overlooking the street below. There is a vaulted ceiling and fireplace inset with a gas fire. There are four double bedrooms to the main dwelling. Bedroom one, two and four all have windows to the side aspect. Bedroom three is currently being used as a study, understandably as it has lovely views over Bridge Street and the countryside beyond. Also off the landing is a family bathroom.
