Character cottage on a generous plot near Kingsland and Leominster.
Large mature garden with greenhouse and multiple seating areas
Orchard Cottage is a characterful detached country home set on a generous, mature plot in peaceful Shirlheath. The house blends traditional features — exposed beams, an inglenook with wood-burning stove and a prominent triple-aspect garden room — with practical family spaces including a long kitchen/dining area and a spacious sitting room. Off-street parking and a detached single garage add useful storage and vehicle space.
The layout works well for family life or for buyers seeking a rural retreat: two double bedrooms upstairs, a family bathroom, and a ground-floor shower room provide flexible accommodation across two storeys. The garden is a standout asset with mature planting, a paved terrace, greenhouse and several seating areas, offering privacy and room for children, pets or gardening projects.
Important practical points: the property is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators, double glazed after 2002, and constructed before 1900 with solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated). Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average. While the house is largely well maintained, parts of the home and the garage would benefit from updating and modernisation to improve energy efficiency and bring finishes up to contemporary standards.
Offered freehold and chain-free, this cottage will suit buyers wanting an established rural home with scope to enhance and personalise. Its location close to Kingsland and three miles from Leominster provides basic amenities and wider shopping and transport links while retaining a quiet countryside setting.
