Description

A Renovated Detached Cottage in the Golden Valley | Set Within 1.45 Acres of Mature Garden and Surrounded by Open Countryside | Three Double Bedrooms | Ground Floor Bathroom & Upstairs Shower Room | Open Plan Kitchen/Diner, Four Further Reception Rooms | Off Road Parking for 6+ Vehicles

Pentwyn Cottage occupies a lovely rural position in Bacton, in the heart of the Golden Valley and enjoying endless countryside walks and views. Despite it's rural location, a range of amenities can be found in the nearby village of Ewyas Harold (3 miles), with a primary school, village shop and post office, Doctors surgery, and much more. Further local facilities are available at Abbeydore, Peterchurch, Madley and Kingstone, with the ever-popular market towns of Hay on Wye and Abergavenny also within easy reach. To the north east the cathedral city of Hereford offers more extensive facilities as well as road and rail links to other parts of the country.

Nestled in the heart of the rural hamlet of Bacton, this beautifully renovated detached character cottage enjoys a peaceful setting within approximately 1.45 acres of mature gardens and grounds. Thoughtfully updated over the past five years, the property seamlessly combines modern comforts with an abundance of original period features, creating a warm and inviting family home.

A sweeping driveway leads from the road through the grounds to a generous area of off-road parking, comfortably accommodating six or more vehicles. Beyond this sits a substantial outbuilding/workshop, offering excellent storage, hobby space, or potential for a variety of uses.

The cottage itself exudes charm and character throughout, with exposed stone walls, original beams, and feature fireplaces providing a wonderful sense of heritage. At the heart of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen and dining room, which has been comprehensively upgraded to offer extensive worktop and cupboard space, room for appliances, and a practical layout ideal for modern living. Dual-aspect windows flood the room with natural light, while a door opens directly onto an outdoor dining terrace.

The cosy lounge is centred around a traditional inglenook fireplace complete with wood-burning stove and mantle. In addition, there are two further reception rooms that offer excellent flexibility as a snug, home office, study, playroom, or hobby space. A conservatory enjoys delightful views across the surrounding gardens and countryside, providing a tranquil spot to relax throughout the seasons.

Further accommodation on the ground floor includes a useful utility room with plumbing and space for additional appliances, fitted storage cupboards, and access to the family bathroom.

The first floor benefits from newly fitted carpets throughout. A split-level staircase leads to a stylish modern family bathroom, an inner hallway with additional storage, and a spacious principal bedroom featuring dual-aspect windows and an attractive original fireplace. A further staircase rises to the upper level, where two generously sized double bedrooms complete the accommodation.

Outside, the beautifully established gardens offer a wonderful degree of privacy and seclusion. Expanses of lawn are complemented by productive vegetable patches, a pond feature, seating area, and a variety of useful outbuildings. Surrounded by mature planting and enjoying a peaceful rural setting, the grounds provide an idyllic environment for gardening, entertaining, or simply appreciating the tranquillity of the countryside.
