This “truly charming” cottage for sale dates back hundreds of years and is full of character features. 

The cottage, in Ross-on-Wye, has origins in 1750, at approximately the time when the town started to gain popularity as a spot from which to explore the river and the Wye Valley. 

A front porch with quarry tile flooring leads into the living room, which includes a feature stone inglenook fireplace and a multi-fuel burner on a raised hearth, as well as period wood beams and a sash window. 

Leading off the living room is an office or snug, with a feature Victorian fireplace, stone alcoves, and a further sash window. 

The character features continue throughout the home, with a dining room including a feature stone wall, wood beams, an alcove and an internal window to the kitchen. 

The kitchen and breakfast room is in the farmhouse style, with fitted units and an electric oven, as well as ceramic herringbone flooring. 

Completing this level is a utility room with a door to the garden, and a downstairs WC. 

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, the master of which includes an en-suite shower room, and a pair of fitted double wardrobes. 

The two further bedrooms each offer built-in storage, and are served by a family bathroom. 

To the front of the cottage is a garden accessed by a wrought iron gate and is mostly laid to lawn with flower borders. 

There is also a secluded rear garden with further flower borders and seating areas, as well as a covered parking area and a workshop. 

The property is being sold by Steve Gooch Estate Agents for a guide price of £400,000. 

The agent commented: “A truly charming and wonderfully attractive three bedroom semi-detached cottage ideally situated in a peaceful location on the fringes of Ross on Wye offering deceptively spacious and quirky accommodation throughout. 

“The cottage has its roots as far back as circa 1750 and this sense of age and character has been thoughtfully retained and cleverly blended with more modern additions.”
