The Property
No.33 Watling Street is a beautifully presented, period property found in the heart of the sought-after village of Leintwardine, which lies on the rural Herefordshire/Shropshire border surrounded by beautiful countryside and rolling hills and is conveniently positioned within a short walk to a number of useful amenities including a doctors surgery, primary school, 2 pubs and the village shop.
Originally built circa 1860, the property sits on the former high/main street, Watling Street and has been extensively upgraded and lovingly maintained by the current owners over recent years. Set over 2 storeys, No.33 Watling Street presents 3 bedrooms, 2 reception rooms and 1 bathroom, while outside there is a large, private driveway providing ample off road parking and a sizeable, landscaped rear garden. The property retains many character features including exposed timbers and fireplaces and is complimented by a pleasant blend of contemporary finishings to include a modern bathroom, a 'Hive' controlled heating system and a high-spec kitchen complete with 'Quartz' worktops and integrated appliances. From the first floor, far-reaching views to the rear can also be enjoyed.
Inside, this deceptively spacious property is made up on the ground floor of an entrance hall, with stairs rising off to the first floor and separate doors leading into the cosy living room and the open-plan kitchen diner. The living room has a feature fireplace and ample space for a seating suite, whilst the kitchen diner has space for a set table and chairs, an inglenook fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove, matching wall and base units, 'Quartz' and solid wood worktops, a ceramic 'Belfast' sink and integral appliances to include an oven, hob, dishwasher and a combi oven/microwave and plate warmer. From the kitchen area separate doors lead out to the rear garden and into the living room and useful utility, which has a sink, W.C, space for a washing machine and an airing cupboard housing the electric fired 'Slim Jim' boiler, which is also connected to 'Hive'. Upstairs, a landing area gives way to the luxurious bathroom and all 3 bedrooms, which includes 2 sizeable doubles and single. Both front bedrooms, have bespoke wardrobes with fitted drawers, while bedroom one also boasts another feature fireplace. Bedroom three enjoys distant countryside views over and beyond the rear garden.
Outside, the landscaped rear garden is worthy of particular note and is largely lawned with well-defined fenced boundaries and decorative raised beds. A gravelled area near to the back of the property poses as an idyllic spot to relax or entertain, whilst adjoining the rear of the house is a timber-framed lean-to, which has a paved base, lighting and external power points and could be used for a variety of purposes and provides cover to the rear entrance door. Found towards the back of the garden is a further paved seating area, which is ideal for evening entertaining. Parking within the area is limited, however a unique selling point to No.33 Watling Street is the benefit of private, off road parking for at least 4 vehicles on the good-sized gravelled drive. A wicket gate opens from the parking area directly into the garden. The parking area has plenty of space for the addition of a double garage, carport or even home office, subject to all necessary permissions.
