Location

The village of Weston-under-Penyard is some 2 miles east of the market and tourist town of Ross-on-Wye and within 10 minutes drive of the M50 motorway. The village is noted for its vibrant community spirit and an excellent array of amenities. At the heart of the village is the traditional and popular village pub, The Weston Cross. Not far away is the well regarded primary school, whilst nearby is the prominently sited on the lower slopes of St Lawrence church, portions of which date back to the late 12th Century. A noted local landmark, with its superb square stone tower, the church is a focal point for both spiritual and social gatherings. Not far away the village hall is a lively hub of activity, and adjacent to same are the splendid and beautifully maintained playing fields.

Description

Situated approx. a mile from the village of Weston-under-Penyard, Little Kingstone is an attractive stone and white washed traditional cottage which is in need of updating and modernisation. The cottage sits to the side of the plot, which is approaching 0.5 acre and has an outlook across the surrounding rolling farmland. To the opposite far side of the plot are two buildings. One used as a garage, the other of brick construction with a pitched roof, formerly used as a workshop with a large reception area to the front.
The cottage is of traditional stone construction under a pitched roof and comprises a lounge, kitchen with useful pantry and a rear porch and boiler room. To the first floor are two bedrooms and a bathroom. Outside is an attractive stone built outbuilding with a former w.c and store room adjacent. The gardens are laid mainly to lawn, with a variety of mature trees and shrubs, as well as fruit beds and an aluminium framed greenhouse.
To the far side of the plot, and accessed from a driveway via gates, are the two outbuildings. The first a double garage with side pedestrian door, the second a substantial brick building, with pitched and tiled roof. An entrance door gives access to a large reception area with cloaks and w.c., with a further door leading through to the main 27' workshop area, also with cloaks and w.c. To the front and side of this building is ample parking space for several vehicles/motorhome.
