Large south-facing mature garden with fruit trees and high screening hedges
Set in a quiet hamlet about six miles south of Hereford, this detached three-bedroom cottage sits amid Whitfield Estate farmland with views to Saddlebow hills and Orcop. The property benefits from a large, south-facing, well‑screened garden with specimen fruit trees, patios and lily ponds — ideal for keen gardeners or families who want outside space and privacy.
Internally the house offers two reception rooms, a study/hall, a small to medium kitchen with adjacent utility, ground-floor cloakroom and a first-floor bathroom. Two bedrooms open onto a balcony that takes in the countryside views. A double garage sits at the side, houses the oil boiler and provides clear scope to extend or convert (subject to consents).
Practical notes: the house dates from the early 20th century with solid brick walls (assumed no cavity insulation), oil-fired central heating and a septic tank. Double glazing is older (pre-2002). Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is excellent. The kitchen and some internal fittings are dated and the property will suit buyers willing to update services and interiors to modern standards.
This freehold cottage will appeal to families or buyers seeking a rural home with substantial garden and extension potential. It offers charm and seclusion but requires investment for modern energy performance and some internal updating.
