Nestled in an elevated position amidst the rolling hills of Herefordshire, Sunnyside Cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly special rural retreat. Coming to the market for the first time in over 50 years, this much-loved home has been meticulously maintained by the current owners and offers peace, privacy, and breath-taking views that stretch across the Herefordshire countryside and beyond.

Set within just over half an acre of beautifully landscaped gardens, the cottage blends traditional charm with thoughtful modernisation. From the moment you enter through the original front door, you're welcomed into a delightful nook with dual-aspect windows—a perfect spot for reading or quiet contemplation, bathed in natural light and countryside views.

At the heart of the original stone cottage lies the characterful living room, complete with exposed beams and a striking stone inglenook fireplace housing a wood burning stove. The adjacent kitchen has been tastefully updated, featuring sleek modern units, quartz worktops and splashbacks, integrated appliances, including double oven, warming drawer, dishwasher, fridge and a perfectly positioned sink overlooking the ever-changing landscape.

Approximately 20 years ago, the owners added a stunning garden room that opens up from the kitchen. This additional reception space, with windows on two sides and French doors leading to a patio, was designed to capture the sweeping views and floods the space with light year-round—ideal for entertaining or simply relaxing in tranquillity, whilst benefitting from underfloor heating.

The ground floor also includes a stylishly tiled family shower room with electric underfloor heating and a corner shower cubicle, WC and wash basin, as well as a practical boot room/utility with external access, fitted units, and plumbing for laundry appliances.

Upstairs, the property offers two generous double bedrooms, one of which is open to the landing, while the principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and those stunning views once more.

Externally, the landscaped gardens are a true highlight. Designed to make the most of the property's elevated setting, they include terraced patios and decking, a vegetable patch with polytunnel, mature trees and shrubs, and a variety of useful outbuildings including a stable, tack room and a wood-shed -perfect for storage or hobbies.

To the rear there is an area for car parking. Please note, a public footpath crosses the parking area but does not intrude into the private gardens.
