Summary - MAY COTTAGE STAUNTON ON WYE HEREFORD HR4 7NB
3 bed 1 bath Cottage
Character cottage on ¼ acre with fruit trees and wide rural views.
Detached period cottage with exposed timbers and inglenook fireplace
May Cottage is a detached, character-filled period home set on about a quarter of an acre at the edge of Staunton‑On‑Wye. The cottage offers a spacious lounge/dining room with exposed timbers and an inglenook with wood-burning stove, a large fitted kitchen with pantry, ground-floor utility and cloakroom, and three bedrooms upstairs. Off-street parking and a sweeping gravel drive add practical convenience for everyday life in the countryside.
The plot is a major draw: mature lawns, fruit trees (apple, pear, plum), a fish pond, timber outbuildings and a west-facing garden with a covered veranda, all surrounded by open fields and wide rural views. Broadband and mobile signal are strong despite the remoter location, and the property is sold chain free for a quicker move.
Buyers should note material considerations: the house is a pre‑1900, solid‑walled dwelling with no cavity insulation (assumed) and uses oil-fired central heating; some modernisation and planned maintenance may be required. The property has a history of flooding, but external flood defences have been installed and have held through recent high-water events. Drainage is private (septic) and mains utilities are present.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking rural character, ample outdoor space and privacy — families wanting space to play and grow, buyers seeking a peaceful second home, or those prepared to carry out sympathetic updating. An inspection is recommended to appreciate the accommodation, garden and setting in full.
