A SPACIOUS and modern three-bedroom cottage which boasts "sensational views" of the Wye Valley in Herefordshire is for sale with a guide price of £525,000.

The semi-detached riverside cottage in Symonds Yat, near Ross-on-Wye, is in the heart of the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and offers "generous" accommodation, Hamilton Stiller Estate Agents said on Zoopla.

"The cottage offers a pleasant family home with generous accommodation but, because of its location within a tourism hotspot, there is also a prime opportunity to lease out the property on holiday rental websites, which is what the current owners do very successfully," agents said.

The ground floor at the Ferrie Lane home has two "vast" rooms and are "delightful" places for families to spend time together.

"The lounge features an impressive open fireplace which is framed by beautiful tiles, an ornate cast iron surround and intricately-carved wooden mantel," they added. Grand sliding doors let the light and showcase the phenomenal view."

The open-plan kitchen and dining room is modern and includes a large cooker, induction hob, integrated appliances such as a dishwasher and fridge/freezer.

There is also a separate drinks fridge and plenty of food preparation and storage space.

The kitchen leads through to the boot room which houses the washing machine, with a cloakroom also on the ground floor.

Two of the bedrooms – a double and twin – are both found on the first floor. They both have built-in wardrobes and the windows face out to views of the river and "spellbinding" valley.

The recently-fitted first floor bathroom has a bath, walk-in double shower, basin, toilet and heated towel rail.

There is also a home office, which could become an extra bedroom, the agents said.
