The Property
Introducing Wetmore, which is a truly magnificent, fully refurbished detached cottage located just outside the popular village of Lingen which lies on the rural Herefordshire/Shropshire border and sits in approximately 2/3 of an acre of landscaped gardens and enjoys fantastic distant views across the adjoining open countryside.
Originally built circa mid 19th century, this fabulous property has been beautifully renovated to an extremely high standard by the current owner over the past 5 years leaving no stone left un-turned while retaining many character features. Having more or less every detail either renewed or upgraded from what was previously a very tired and dated house this stunning dwelling has had a complete overhaul from the central heating to the kitchen and from the windows and doors to the electrics and roof. The quality certainly does not finish inside with Wetmore offering parking for numerous vehicles, a triple bay out-building/garage/workshop (9m W x 5.5m L) and a detached studio/office (4.1m W x 2.9m L) with both fitted with power and lighting. Worthy of particular note, the beautiful south-west facing gardens are largely laid to lawn and wild, while there is a patio area directly outside the cottage, as well as a suspended and elevated decked seating area found at the top of the garden which overlooks the entire property and surrounding countryside. Under the canopy of an oak tree this is the perfect spot to unwind on a warm summers evening.
Rural, but by no means isolated, Wetmore is conveniently situated approximately 1 mile form the popular village of Lingen which boasts a close knit community and centres around the village pub, The Royal George! Offering privacy and seclusion, Wetmore is centrally located just 5 miles from the popular market town of Presteigne, 9 miles from the border town of Knighton and 4 miles from the much larger and historic village of Wigmore. Slightly further afield Ludlow is 12 miles to the east.
Approached over a gravelled driveway, an oak lean-to porch shelters the stable entrance door, which leads into the kitchen diner. A door from the kitchen diner, leads into a small hall where the 'official' front door is found, as well as further doors opening into the living room and an understairs storage cupboard. The living room is a light and airy space offering duel aspects to the front and rear and includes a feature wood-burning stove, double doors opening out the patio area and stairs rising to the first floor accommodation. Another door leads into the useful utility, which accesses the study, the downstairs W.C and outside to the patio. On the first floor, a landing area gives way to the 2 double bedrooms and the bathroom. The choice for the principle bedroom is yours! The larger of the two bedrooms has has the benefit of direct access into the bathroom, wardrobe space and double doors opening out to a splendid balcony, which attracts the morning sun, while the other bedroom enjoys equally as impressive views, as well as the addition of a private en-suite shower room.
Offering the tranquillity so many of us desire, Wetmore could be just what you are looking for if no near neighbours, distant views, natural wildlife, sizeable gardens and beautiful countryside is what you are after!
