Surrounded by rolling Herefordshire countryside, the sought-after village of Peterstow offers an excellent range of amenities within easy reach. Peterstow Village Stores & Post Office is just a short walk away, while the Yew Tree Inn, an award-winning cider production company, is also nearby. This popular taproom also stocks superb real ales, craft beer, wines and spirits.

In the neighbouring hamlet of Winters Cross, The Red Lion country pub is renowned for its warm hospitality and excellent home-cooked food. Around 1.5 miles away, Pengethley Farm Shop and Butchery, alongside Pengethley Garden Centre and its welcoming tearoom, provide a superb selection of local produce and everyday conveniences.

Families are well served by Bridstow Primary School, located just over a mile away, which was rated 'Good' by Ofsted in its latest inspection.

The market town of Ross-on-Wye, approximately two miles away, is celebrated as the birthplace of British tourism and enjoys a spectacular setting above the River Wye. The town offers an extensive range of amenities, including supermarkets, independent shops and boutiques, cafés, restaurants, pubs, leisure facilities, two GP surgeries and a community hospital.

The Home at a Glance

Eastbarn is one of just four attractive stone-built homes arranged around a central gravel courtyard, offering a wonderful sense of community. Beautifully updated with new farmhouse-style internal doors and new ground-floor flooring, this charming former coach house blends period character with modern comfort.

The entrance to this charming former coach house opens into a practical porch with a built-in coat cupboard, offering the ideal place to leave boots and coats after enjoying the surrounding countryside. A cloakroom lies just beyond.

At the heart of the home is the characterful farmhouse kitchen, which features exposed beams and Shaker-style cabinetry. There is ample space for a dining table, making it a natural gathering place for family and friends. Integrated appliances include an under-counter fridge and freezer, Zanussi oven, ceramic hob, extractor fan and one-and-a-half bowl sink, while there is also provision for a washing machine, tumble dryer and freestanding fridge-freezer, all of which may be available by separate negotiation.

The kitchen flows into two reception rooms. The first is a delightful dual-aspect garden room with a pitched ceiling and Velux windows that flood the space with natural light, making it equally suited as a formal dining room. The second is the beautifully atmospheric sitting room, where exposed timbers and an impressive inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove provide a quintessential country feel. French doors open directly onto the garden, while an adjoining room with a beamed ceiling offers excellent flexibility, having previously served as a ground-floor bedroom but is equally ideal as a snug, study or playroom.

The first floor comprises three generous double bedrooms, all enjoying lovely views across the rural surroundings. The principal bedroom overlooks the rear garden and benefits from two built-in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms enjoy views across Peterstow Common and are served by a well-appointed family bathroom featuring a four-piece suite and additional countertop vanity unit.

A staircase at the end of the landing leads to the converted loft space, where three versatile rooms provide excellent additional accommodation for hobbies, home working, guest accommodation or storage. Character features continue here, with exposed beams, Velux windows and useful eaves storage.

Outside, the rear garden affords scope for both relaxing and entertaining. A generous patio provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining, while a level lawn, colourful planted borders and an attractive hexagonal summerhouse create a delightful cottage garden atmosphere.

Parking is exceptionally well catered for, with a double carport incorporating a log store and a substantial workshop complete with light, power and mezzanine storage. In addition, there is private off-road parking for up to two further vehicles.
