Summary - The Old Station House, Kerne Bridge HR9 5QT
Five double bedrooms, master with en-suite
Set in an elevated, private half-acre plot, The Old Station House is a newly renovated five-bedroom former railway station with sweeping views over the River Wye and Goodrich Castle. The home retains period character — exposed beams, leaded windows and an oak floor — while offering a bright, open-plan living area, a farmhouse kitchen with a Stoves range and useful utility room. The master bedroom and a second vaulted bedroom both showcase exceptional outlooks and the master has an en-suite.
The grounds are a major asset: a generous driveway and sensor-operated double gates lead to parking for several vehicles (including motorhomes) and an integral garage/workshop. A raised terrace and level lawn face west for sunset views; the courtyard follows the original platform and gives access to substantial cellar storage. The property offers potential to create a self-contained annexe above the garage, subject to planning, and benefits from privacy with no immediate neighbours.
Practical considerations are straightforward but important. The home uses LPG boiler heating (not a community supply), drains to a private septic tank, and has fibre but generally slow broadband speeds and average mobile signal. Double glazing was installed before 2002; original sandstone/limestone walls are assumed to have no added insulation. Council tax is in Band F and there is a recorded high flood risk for the wider location — buyers should confirm flood status and insurance implications with their advisers.
This house will suit buyers seeking a character-filled country home with strong outdoor appeal and room for flexible use — families wanting space, buyers seeking a rural project with conversion potential, or anyone wanting a distinctive residence in the Wye Valley AONB. The recent renovations reduce immediate maintenance, but the heating fuel, private drainage and insulation details are material factors to consider before purchase.
