Characterful rural home with extensive private grounds and woodlands.
Detached Victorian cottage with panoramic Teme Valley views
This classic Victorian detached cottage sits on the flanks of Ankerdine Hill with panoramic views across the Teme Valley and west towards Herefordshire. The house has abundant character — exposed features, two cosy reception rooms with woodburning stoves, and a sociable kitchen with an AGA and breakfast bar island. The sitting room and all three first-floor double bedrooms take full advantage of the outlook; the terrace is a superb spot to watch the sun set over the valley.
Practical daily living is covered: cloakroom, bootility room for wet dogs and muddy boots, and oil-fired central heating. The plot extends to around 0.6 acres including woodlands and a landscaped garden and patio. A private drive provides off-street parking and there are miles of country walks from the doorstep, with local amenities including a village pub and surgery within easy reach.
Buyers should note a few material facts: drainage is private (septic/soakaway), heating is oil-fired rather than mains gas, and council tax is described as expensive. A public footpath/section of the Worcestershire Way crosses the driveway — useful for walkers but a legal right of way to be aware of. Broadband speeds are average; mobile signal is excellent but the property is in a remote, rural community, which may not suit those requiring urban convenience.
This property will suit lifestyle buyers and right-sizers seeking rural privacy, large grounds and standout valley views. It also offers straightforward scope for updating systems or cosmetic modernisation if a buyer prefers contemporary finishes while retaining the cottage character.
