EV charging point and Gigaclear fast broadband available

Woodland requires regular management (coppicing) and ongoing upkeep
Set on approximately one acre of garden and mature woodland with direct access into Penyard Woods, this stone-built Coach House will appeal to anyone who values wildlife and privacy. The house retains character features — exposed stonework, beams, parquet floors and a central wood-burning stove — while offering practical spaces including a sunny kitchen with pantry, a useful study, and a conservatory-style sun room overlooking the grounds.
The grounds are the standout asset: a wildlife pond, formal fruit and vegetable beds, a secure chicken enclosure and a managed area of coppiced trees where deer are regularly seen. Practical conveniences include a garage/workshop, driveway parking for two, an EV charging point and fast broadband availability via Gigaclear. Ross-on-Wye and local shops at Lea are a short drive away, while the property sits within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Buyers should note some material items: the property has an EPC rating of F, oil-fired heating, and the original sandstone/limestone walls are presumed uninsulated, so energy and insulation upgrades are likely needed. Drainage is a private shared system renewed four years ago; prospective buyers should verify ongoing maintenance responsibilities. Accommodation is two double bedrooms and a single family bathroom — suitable for couples, small families or downsizers rather than larger households.
This is a rare opportunity for a buyer seeking an almost self-sufficient, nature-focused lifestyle with scope to improve energy performance and modernise services. Early viewing is recommended for anyone prioritising seclusion, garden space and immediate woodland access.
