5 Bed Detached House, Single Let, Hereford, HR1 4QA £845,000

The gardens and grounds extend to around an acre and have been thoughtfully landscaped into distinct areas with lawns, formal planting, ornamental pond, vegetable beds, a greenhouse, orchard and enclosed kitchen garden. The outside space has been designed for both relaxation and productivity, creating a setting that is as practical as it is beautiful.

A collection of 3 good sized well-maintained outbuildings sits within the garden, each offering its own potential. All are insulated and have mains power. The Cabin has a woodburner, basin and raised sleeping platform. This allows semi-independent living in the structure. The craft room has a large window looking out on the garden and built in desk, ideal for crafts or as a home office. it opens into a covered section perfect for barbecues or summer dining. The pottery studio also doubles as dry storage space. Together, these 3 buildings add a wonderful degree of flexibility, offering scope for AirBnB income, multi-generational living or creative working from home. All are usable all year round.

There are further sheds and stores and a raised chicken coop and adjoining run.

Adjoining and with separate access lies a further field of around three acres, with a concrete base already in place for a stable block or similar, subject to any necessary consents. The field is currently in use for grazing horses and has troughed water. This creates a wonderful opportunity for equestrian or smallholding use, giving the property genuine lifestyle appeal.

Peaceful, private and full of character, Morning Star combines village convenience with rural tranquillity and endless possibilities.
