Ground Floor

From the lobby, doors lead to a stylishly appointed ground-floor shower room, complete with a modern suite and tasteful finishes.

Adjacent is a practical utility room, fitted with laundry appliances, an additional sink unit, and a door offering direct access to the rear garden. Continuing through, you arrive at the heart of the home - an exceptional open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area with a stunning double-height ceiling, slate flooring, and exposed oak framework. Doors in the full height wall glazing panels open out to the garden from both the dining and living areas, creating a seamless flow between indoors and out - ideal for entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful setting. The high-quality kitchen is generously proportioned and well-equipped with a comprehensive range of modern appliances and ample storage. The living space doors lead out to a covered patio area under the oak frame with picture-perfect views over farmland to Hergest Ridge, and inside the wood-burning stove is perfect for cosy evenings in while watching the weather sweep across the countryside.

First Floor

Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized double bedrooms, all offering plenty of space, light, and character with exposed oak beams. The standout is the master bedroom, which spans the full width of the property and features a stunning roof-light window to the rear - creating a truly special space that captures uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside. The first floor also includes a well-appointed shower room, complete with WC and wash hand basin, as well as a separate family bathroom, fitted with a bath, WC, and wash hand basin - offering comfort and convenience for family living or guests.

Outbuildings

The property benefits from a range of useful and versatile outbuildings, offering excellent potential for a variety of uses, and potential development subject to obtaining the necessary consents from the relevant local authorities. A traditional stable building, currently used as a hobby room, presents exciting potential for modernisation or conversion. It could be transformed into ancillary accommodation, a home office, studio, or guest space - depending on the buyer’s needs and vision, and subject to planning approval where required. To the left of the property, accessed via the gravel driveway, is an open fronted wood store, and a large insulated workshop with double doors - an ideal space for the keen hobbyist, crafts person, or those working from home. The workshop outbuilding extends over a further open fronted area with hard-standing currently used for wood storage, but equally suited for use as a double carport.

Gardens and Grounds

Accessed via a gated private driveway leading to the front of the property, the gravelled driveway is bordered by mature shrubs and bushes, opening out to a large parking and turning area. The home sits on a generous plot of approximately 1.2 acres. The house is surrounded by stone paving with gravel paths that meander towards the outbuildings. The level plot is currently laid to lawn with an orchard area, and bordered by mature hedges and trees. The gardens offer a relatively easy-to-maintain space but also present keen gardeners with an opportunity to create something truly special - all surrounded by absolutely captivating views that are impossible to take your eyes off!

Summary

A beautifully crafted home, thoughtfully designed to blend seamlessly with its idyllic surroundings. Set on a truly special plot, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the very best of the Herefordshire countryside—both inside and out.
