A period stone cottage in Weston Beggard offering strong scope to restore and personalise. The house has three bedrooms, a porch, kitchen, living room and a conservatory that opens to a generous wrap-around garden with open farmland views — a rare semi-rural plot close to Hereford.
The property requires renovation throughout: the original sandstone/limestone walls are assumed uninsulated, and the home will benefit from upgrades to fixtures, finishes and services. Heating is oil-fired (boiler and radiators plus underfloor heating noted), double glazing was installed from 2002 onwards, and there is scope to extend subject to planning permission (no application in place).
Practical points for buyers: the plot is large and private, broadband speeds are fast, and crime levels are low. Flooding risk is rated medium, and the house is freehold and council-taxed at a moderate level. This is a good project for a family or buyer seeking a character home with countryside living, or an investor prepared for refurbishment costs.
Nearby schools include several well-rated state primaries and an outstanding secondary, while Hereford’s amenities are within easy reach. The location suits anyone wanting village life with good connectivity to the city.
