Description

Detached Two-Bedroom Cottage Set within 3 Acres | Grade II Listed | Large Paddock with Separate Access | Gated Driveway Parking | Two Reception Rooms, Two Bedrooms | Integral Garage |

Located in Sutton Lakes, on the outskirts of the popular village of Sutton St Nicholas. This attractive village offers a sought after primary school, a busy village hall, a thriving pub-restaurant and an ancient church. There is a regular bus service straight into the centre of Hereford (approx. 5 miles), and a range of further amenities in the nearby villages of Bodenham, Marden and Withington.

Additionally, the local area offers a wide choice of scenic countryside walks.

Tucked away in a serene and picturesque setting, this charming detached black and white Grade II listed cottage sits within just over three acres of grounds, offering a rare opportunity to restore and reimagine a characterful rural home.

Approached via a gated driveway, and with a wrap-around garden that frames the cottage beautifully and includes useful outbuilding storage. While the cottage is in need of renovation, it presents significant potential for those looking to create a bespoke home rich in period features.

Internally, the accommodation comprises two reception rooms—a lounge and a dining room—alongside a kitchen, a ground floor bathroom, and a separate W.C. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms, interconnected in layout, adding to the cottage’s traditional charm. An integral door leads to a single garage, as well as to an additional room requiring refurbishment, which could be transformed into further reception space. This area benefits from a mezzanine floor, offering scope for creative use.

Beyond the immediate garden lies a substantial paddock with direct access from Wyatt Road, as well as an old orchard, enhancing the property’s rural appeal. The total plot extends to just over three acres, providing a wealth of possibilities for landscaping, smallholding, or leisure use.

Agents Note:
Please note, the current owners intend to apply an uplift clause to the land, entitling them to 25% of any increase in build value over the next 30 years (Subject to contract).
