This Grade II listed Tudor cottage in Eardisland blends historic character with practical updates. The current owner has remodelled the kitchen, replaced flooring with oak, and refurbished the bathroom, leaving a comfortable three-bedroom home arranged over two floors. Two reception rooms, both with wood burners, and glazed doors to the private rear garden create a warm, versatile living space for family life or weekends in the country.
The property sits on a large, well-stocked rear garden that includes a sun terrace, lawned areas, fruit beds, a small orchard and a wilder section with a pond — ideal for gardeners, small-scale food growing or a quiet outdoor retreat. A generous hard-standing to the front provides off-street parking for several cars. The village location delivers a strong sense of community with a shop, two pubs, church, walks and regular bus links to Leominster.
Important considerations are factual and should influence viewing decisions. As a Grade II listed house, alterations will be restricted and may add time and cost to refurbishment or extension plans. The vendor reports some localized flooding in recent years that affected the sitting room; interested buyers should commission a survey and check flood defences and insurance implications. Drainage is via a private septic tank, which requires ongoing maintenance.
Overall, this is a character-rich cottage on a sizeable plot in a highly desirable black-and-white village. It will suit buyers seeking period charm with usable outdoor space and who are comfortable with listed-building constraints and the village’s rural flood risk profile.
