Lightwoods is a substantial detached dormer bungalow set in a peaceful rural spot with far-reaching views to Dinedor and the Black Mountains. The house sits on a large lawned plot, offers flexible accommodation across ground and first floors and benefits from a double garage and generous parking — ideal for families seeking country living close to Hereford.
The layout is accessible and adaptable: two ground-floor bedrooms and a bathroom make single-storey living straightforward, while two first-floor bedrooms and a second bathroom provide extra space for guests or family. Three reception rooms, a conservatory/garden room and a well-equipped kitchen with breakfast area create comfortable living areas that take advantage of the views and natural light.
The property is well maintained and double glazed with oil-fired central heating, but it does require modernisation in places. Construction details such as solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated) and private drainage are important to note, and broadband speeds are very slow. These factors create both an opportunity to update the home and practical considerations for day-to-day living.
Offered chain-free, Lightwoods will suit a buyer wanting immediate rural access to Hereford (about five minutes’ drive) with room to tailor fixtures, heating and connectivity to modern standards. It’s a strong option for family living, downsizers needing single-floor flexibility, or buyers seeking renovation potential in a scenic countryside setting.
