Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • Spacious four bedroom period home
  • Close to an acre of woodland and gardens
  • Incredible views over the River Wye and beyond
  • Parking for 2 cars, garage
This beautiful period home sits among some of the most stunning scenery in the county of Herefordshire, being perched in an elevated position overlooking the River Wye within the Wye Valley AONB, with incredible far reaching views.

The house itself boasts a spacious living room, kitchen, utility, ground floor bedroom and shower room, with three additional bedrooms and a bathroom to the first floor.

Outside are areas of lawn and a large decking area looking over the River Wye, with a footpath that winds up through a large area of ancient woodland.

Hoarwithy is a delightful village, located roughly halfway between the market town of Ross on Wye and the cathedral city of Hereford. It is known for its beautiful scenery, opportunities for canoeing and fishing on the Wye, beautiful Italianate church and village Pub. The house is located within the village boundary of Hoarwithy but outside the conservation area, which is relevant should anyone want to make a planning application in the future. A planning application was lodged with the council for a holiday home in the woods but abandoned after the owners decided to move to Australia.

The front door opens into a porch which then leads into a beautiful, bright and spacious living room, with large windows to front and side aspect, allowing for plenty of light and stunning views. There is a woodburning stove on a raised tiled hearth, staircase to first floor and a door leading outside to the patio area.

A passageway leads through to a good sized modern kitchen, separate utility room and ground floor shower room, as well as a spacious double bedroom with wonderful views and a door leading outside to the garden.

To the first floor are three additional bedrooms, all enjoying those same views over the River Wye. The master bedroom is a good sized, with a double aspect, bedroom 2 features a built in wardrobe/storage cupboard, and the third bedroom is split into 2 sections, with the option to use one section as a home office. There is also a family bathroom with a modern white suite, and a separate W.C and wash basin.

Outside - The Rookery enjoys a generous plot of close to an acre, comprising recently re-landscaped gardens with areas of flat lawn, raised beds contained by stone walls and a footpath that gently winds its way through a large section of beautiful ancient woodland.
In addition, there is a large decking area to the front of the property taking in those stunning views over the Wye and surrounding countryside, as well as a separate courtyard to the far side of the house, ideal for enjoying the morning sun. Parking for two cars, as well as a garage can be found below the property, with additional parking for visitors available a short distance up the lane. There is a disused outhouse in the woods which could be converted to a toilet / shower room for potential use with a shepherd's hut or similar, subject to planning approval.

The house comes with riparian fishing rights for one rod at two locations, one at either end of the village

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on May 12, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
