Set high on a south-facing hillside, this detached stone cottage enjoys breathtaking, uninterrupted views across the Arrow Valley and sits within just over 4 acres of pasture and garden. The open-plan living room with a log burner and a large, flexible bedroom space deliver a simple, characterful home with strong potential as a secluded retreat or weekend base for country pursuits.
The location is a major selling point: dark skies, direct access onto a network of footpaths and bridleways, and easy access to Newchurch, Gladestry and the market town of Kington. Original features remain, double glazing is fitted (date unknown) and the property has a traditional layout sympathetic to its period character.
Buyers should be clear about practical limitations. Heating is by electric storage heaters and main fuel is electricity; the thick granite/whinstone walls are assumed to be uninsulated which will affect running costs and comfort without upgrading. Broadband speeds are very slow despite excellent mobile signal. Tenure and some service details are currently unknown and should be confirmed.
This is a property for someone prioritising privacy, landscape and outdoor access over modern convenience. With careful investment—insulation, heating upgrade and some refurbishment—it will reward with a cosy long-term home or specialist holiday/stay proposition in a highly scenic setting.
