About this property

Instant Booking Available via the OwnMyHouse website - No Waiting for Confirmation

Occupying a wonderfully peaceful riverside setting, yet just a short walk from Kington town centre and its range of amenities, including shops, cafés and everyday services, this substantial detached property offers a rare combination of countryside living, generous accommodation and exceptional versatility. Families are also well catered for, with both Kington Primary School and Lady Hawkins' Secondary School within walking distance, as well as Kington Medical Practice.

Approached along a quiet privately owned lane, the house enjoys a surprisingly rural atmosphere despite its convenient location. The adjoining river is a particular highlight, with the property benefiting from its own jetty and fishing rights to a section of the water.

The river and surrounding grounds attract an abundance of wildlife, with ducks, kingfishers and a resident heron regularly seen, while otters, eels and mink have also been spotted. It's an idyllic setting for anyone who enjoys nature, fishing or simply spending time outdoors, without sacrificing easy access to the shops, amenities and facilities of the town centre.

The main house provides spacious and flexible four-bedroom accommodation, including a particularly useful ground-floor bedroom with a large en-suite bathroom and French doors opening directly onto the garden. This arrangement could lend itself perfectly to an elderly relative, dependent family member or anyone requiring predominantly ground-floor accommodation.

A further standout feature is the self-contained one-bedroom apartment, incorporated within the building but providing independent living accommodation. This creates excellent potential for multigenerational living, guest accommodation or generating additional income through private letting or holiday accommodation, subject to any necessary consents.

Internally, the main house offers generous reception space, a spacious kitchen and breakfast area, well-proportioned bedrooms, home office, and ample room for family life. Outside, the grounds provide space to enjoy the peaceful surroundings, while a substantial driveway offers plenty of off-road parking.

Combining the tranquillity of a riverside retreat with the practicality of a town-centre location, this is a genuinely unusual property with considerable flexibility. Whether you're looking for a substantial family home, accommodation for several generations or a property with potential to provide an additional income stream, there is plenty on offer here.

Viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate both the setting and the opportunities this property presents.

Please note: the lane is owned by Arrowbank Lodge, with access shared with just two other neighbouring properties. There is also a public footpath along the lane.
