A COTTAGE in Herefordshire which boasts an unspoilt view of the countryside is for sale.
Agents at Morris Bricknell say the refurbished four-bed cottage near Ross-on-Wye is for sale for £795,000.
It has "exceptional appeal", agents say, and its dominant hillside location in Lea Bailey means it has an unspoilt rural outlook.
With two acres of gardens and grounds, it is also in a quiet and peaceful location with woodland on two sides.
There is also a garage, large wooden workshop, greenhouse and veg plots, as well as potential for further development if required.
Agents say on Zoopla that Mount Pleasant is a beautifully refurbished, four-bedroom detached cottage, five miles southeast of Ross-on-Wye.
Over the last eight years, agents say that the owners have worked tirelessly to create a "generously appointed residence of immense appeal".
Virtually the whole of the ground floor has fine engineered oak flooring, and there is a superb 26ft living/dining room with exposed beams and a woodburning stove.
There is also an 18ft kitchen/breakfast room with a huge granite-topped island together with a comprehensive range of high-end floor and drawer units, again under granite work surfaces. Within the units are a five-ring induction hob, fridge freezer, oven and combination oven, all appliances by either Neff or Bosch.
Glazed double doors from the kitchen open onto an adjacent timber balcony, and views from both the balcony and all front-facing windows extend for miles across unspoilt Herefordshire countryside.
A laundry/utility room and cloaks and toilet complete the ground floor accommodation.
Upstairs, there is an "impressive" master bedroom with a "superb" en-suite shower room and toilet.
There are then three additional bedrooms, most with built-in storage, and the outstanding family bath/shower room.
Central heating is from an oil-fired radiator system and there is an ingenious central vacuuming system with outlets on both the ground and first floor.
The main area of the garden to the home lies to the south and west of the cottage, and this includes neat areas of the lawn with established shrubs and flower beds.
In addition, there is a range of deciduous trees, including a magnificent Weeping Willow. The boundaries are fringed to the north, east and south by adjacent Forestry Commission woodland.
"This enviable position ensures the owners are privileged to encounter an abundance of wildlife in close proximity such as deer, badgers and owls," agents say.
