Riverside setting with far-reaching River Severn views
Set on the banks of the River Severn, Rose Cottage is a detached, extended three-double-bedroom cottage combining period character with modern comforts. The house benefits from a bright open-plan kitchen/dining area, an oak-framed garden room that opens to a raised patio with hot tub, and a cosy living room with a log burner — appealing for year-round riverside living.
The large, level garden and private driveway provide useful outdoor space and parking; the property sits in a quiet hamlet within walking distance of a pub and close to Newnham’s shops, school and services. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make the location suitable for home-working professionals or families wanting a rural setting with good connectivity.
Buyers should note practical issues: the property has a medium flood risk being riverside, the walls are traditional solid brick likely without cavity insulation, and some rooms have lower ceiling heights typical of older cottages. These factors may mean extra insurance costs and improvement work to improve thermal performance.
Overall, Rose Cottage offers immediate charm and comfortable living with clear potential to increase energy efficiency and resilience to flood risk. It will suit buyers seeking a characterful riverside home with generous garden space and scope to personalise rather than a fully turn-key property.
