Location
Whiteleaved Oak is a hamlet within Herefordshire, lying in a valley at the southern end of the Malvern Hills between Ragged Stone Hill and Chase End Hill where the counties of Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire meet. Whiteleaved Oak was first named by Henry Dingley in 1584, a Verderer of Malvern Chase (a forestry official in the Middle Ages). Whiteleaved Oak was home to a 500 year old oak tree, which was thought to be sacred. In 1584 Dingley notes that near the southernmost boundary of the chase grew 'a geate Oake caulled the White Leaved Oake, (which) bereth white leaves''. Written before 1924, ''so many pole of all sorts came to see the tree with variegated leaves, trespassing in the filed, breaking the hedge and doing other damage to the tenant that Mr Ricardo had it cut down''. In 1982, the Hills conservators planted 3 Oak trees, one in each of the Three Counties which meet here in the hamlet. Sadly one of the Oak trees was destroyed in a fire in 2020.
Description
Ragged Stone Cottage occupies an idyllic position within the tranquil hamlet of Whiteleaved Oak. The property has been a much loved home for many years, with the previous owner being a visionary and ahead of his time. Whilst the property is in need of further improvement, it boasts a wealth of character features including extensive exposed timbers, exposed stone and brickwork, impressive exposed floorboards and beautiful flagstone floors. An extension was added in 2004, to create an additional reception room adjoining the kitchen, which offers a fantastic space for entertaining or the potential to be used as a home office/hobby room. With a sympathetic schedule of works, Ragged Stone Cottage offers a unique opportunity to become a wonderful family home within a sacred place.
Benefitting from ground source heating, the accommodation is arranged on the ground floor with an entrance porch, 22 ft long sitting room with two wood burning stoves, breakfast room, kitchen, dining room, utility room and a cloakroom. On the first floor, a landing leads to the principal bedroom with an en suite and walk in wardrobe, two further bedrooms and a bathroom.
Outside, Ragged Stone Cottage enjoys an elevated position with superb far reaching views and a hillside garden. There is a DETACHED GARAGE with an area of parking to the front.
Offered with no onward chain, an internal inspection is highly recommended.
The accommodation with approximate dimensions is as follows:
