Wathans Cottage is a fine example of a delightful detached country residence, occupying a sizeable plot extending to circa 1.3 acres and affording an elevated position within this area of outstanding natural beauty, enjoying outstanding panoramic views across the Wye Valley. The cottage itself has been significantly extended to provide deceptively spacious split-level accommodation to include four double bedrooms, as well as fantastic versatility with the option to create integral multi-generational living, if required.
The layout briefly comprises: entrance porch, sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, dining room, lounge, principal bedroom with en-suite, three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Furthermore, there is a flexible room adjacent to the internal double garage.
Further benefits include an extensive private driveway and beautiful, mature wrap-around gardens, grounds, woodland and paddock all extending to circa 1.3 acres. Providing an excellent opportunity for the prospective buyer to run a small holding or pony paddock, if desired.
Having been in the same ownership for over 40 years, Wathans Cottage provides a superb opportunity for those seeking a peaceful, tranquil setting, yet being within a stone’s throw of a thriving village and retaining excellent commutable links to surrounding towns and cities.
