Breinton, Hereford

Standing in its own plot and with no immediate neighbours, a modern detached house with garage and home office, only a short drive from the cathedral city of Hereford offering huge potential to create a very individual home.

Situation and Description
The scattered village of Breinton lies on the western side of Hereford and has long been a sought-after location owing to its attractive landscape and close proximity to Hereford. The village has a pretty church and village hall and enjoys an array of countryside walks, some of which lead down to the beautiful River Wye. There is an extensive range of facilities within 2 miles, with a choice of shops, schools, colleges, a cinema and theatre as well as a range of cafes and eateries, along with a mainline train station.

Originally built as a farm workers cottage, this modern detached house occupies a lovely position standing on its own with no immediate neighbours and offers huge potential for improvement or extension subject to approval. The house faces due south and enjoys lovely views from a number of windows and is set in a reasonable sized plot. At present the house benefits from both double glazing throughout along with oil-fired central heating. There is a good-sized kitchen/living or breakfast room and both a ground floor shower room and first floor family bathroom. To the rear a modern home office has been built, which is ideal for a variety of uses and is a very useful asset to the house.

On arrival, a gated entrance leads onto the drive and a path then leads around to the far side of the house where a glazed front door opens into a good-sized reception hall with useful understairs cupboard. A door then lead into a sitting room, which has a brick fireplace with tiled hearth, wood effect flooring, a dual aspect and radiator. The kitchen/ living room is a good size and also has an open brick fireplace and dual aspect as well as working surfaces to one wall and fitted cupboards. A door then leads through to a useful utility with further storage space and sink, oil fired central heating boiler, access to outside and a door through to a ground floor shower room.

On the first floor there are three double bedrooms all with attractive views, with two of the rooms benefiting from built in wardrobes. A well-appointed family bathroom then completes the first-floor accommodation.

Outside
Approached from a small lane by a gated entrance, the house stands in a comfortable plot which is well enclosed by mature hedging on all sides which provides plenty of privacy. The gardens are laid to lawn with a herbaceous border to the front of the house. To one side there is a detached brick-built garage (17 x 8’5) with an ‘up and over’ manual door and garden store at the rear (8’ x 6’8).

A particular feature of the property is a modern home office or studio which lies in the rear garden and offers comfortable additional space for a variety of purposes. With bi-fold doors to the front along with power and lighting the building has been insulated and measures (19’x 8’6).
