A delightful Grade II Listed cottage, full of character and charm, located in the heart of the small rural hamlet of Byford, offering comfortable living space throughout, ideal for retirement, a couple or as a holiday retreat.
Situation and Description
The very pretty and sought-after village of Byford lies in the heart of the beautiful Wye Valley and is surrounded by open countryside. The village is quietly tucked away and centered around a lovely village church with some fantastic walks right on the doorstep. There are good local services close by, with an excellent farm shop and country store and an award-winning primary school in the nearby village of Staunton on Wye. Further facilities are available at Credenhill and Weobley, with the Cathedral city of Hereford (8 miles) offering a more extensive range of facilities and services along with a main line train station.
Reading Room Cottage is a very comfortable semi-detached property, ideal for a couple, retirement, or as a rural retreat. Full of character and charm, the well-designed accommodation is laid out over two floors and includes a large living room, a kitchen and adjoining breakfast room, and three bedrooms all with views over the village and surrounding countryside with the River Wye just a short distance away.
On arrival a large open porch and front door lead into the main living room, with oak flooring, Dimplex Quantum electric heater, feature fireplace with fitted wood burner, useful understairs storage cupboard, windows on two sides and a glazed door leading to a small, enclosed garden area. Double doors then lead through to the breakfast room with night storage heater, bespoke
fitted cupboards, large feature bookcase and window to side. The adjoining kitchen space is well organised and includes a range of fitted cupboards and drawers, wooden working surfaces, a tiled floor, deep fill sink, pantry cupboard, electric cooker and window to the side.
From the living room a staircase leads up to a first-floor landing with very useful fitted triple cupboards to one wall, a night storage heater and access to roof space. There are then three similar sized bedrooms, all with fitted carpets, wall mounted electric heaters and windows with views over the village and surrounding countryside. The bedrooms are then supported by a good-sized family bathroom which has all the usual fittings including both a bath and separate shower and airing cupboard plumbed for a washing machine.
Outside
The cottage is approached from a small lane and has hard standing at the front with space to park a car. The gardens lie to either side and are small but well designed. On the east side there is an enclosed area with attractive stone walling and yew hedging, patio, raised bed and space for a garden table and chairs. The garden on the west side of the cottage is currently open plan and laid to lawn with stone walling, oak gate and Rowan tree.
