Summary - WOBAGE COTTAGE LOWER LYDBROOK LYDBROOK GL17 9NW
2 bed 2 bath Terraced
Characterful 2-bed cottage with huge garden, home office and riverside location.
Large third-of-an-acre garden with wooded path and spectacular valley views
Wobage Cottage is a charming two-bedroom terraced cottage tucked into the Wye Valley AONB. The house has been lovingly cared for for 24 years and offers a large 0.3-acre garden with layered beds, a wooded path and spectacular valley views — an attractive mix for gardeners, remote workers and those seeking a countryside retreat. A fully fitted home office with power, light and gigabit-capable fibre broadband is ready for working from home.
Inside, the 19ft sitting room with a feature fireplace, cottage-style kitchen, utility area and two double bedrooms (one with ensuite) deliver comfortable everyday living. The property retains period character — exposed beams, stone walls and low ceilings — that creates a cosy, historic feel but also limits some internal headroom. Practical details include a Worcester Bosch boiler (c.8 years), mains gas, mains drainage and off-street parking.
The location is a major draw: a riverside spot opposite the River Wye with easy access for kayaking and walks, a friendly cafe next door and village amenities within a short walk. The plot offers clear short-term-let potential (Airbnb) given the garden, views and local tourism, but prospective buyers should check local planning, insurance and access arrangements.
Important considerations: the property sits in a medium flood-risk area and the garden is accessed by steps and an old track; this may affect mobility or insurance. Interiors are characterful but will suit buyers who accept lower ceilings and period layouts rather than full-height contemporary spaces. Overall this is a rare, characterful cottage for buyers seeking a picturesque riverside home or a garden-rich holiday-let opportunity.
