Overview:

Shutton House is a charming, characterful, end terrace cottage that radiates an inviting, and cosy atmosphere. This three-bedroom home features thick stone walls, attractive exposed beams, and far-reaching views of rolling countryside, especially from its large established gardens.

Location:

Linton is a picturesque village, a short drive (roughly five miles) from Ross-on-Wye, a popular market town that offers a good variety of supermarkets, shops, restaurants, leisure facilities and highly regarded schools. A grand 13th-century church stands in the centre of Linton and the Alma Inn, a family-run pub, is a short distance away. This was recently crowned pub of the year by Herefordshire's branch of the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) - and the 2021 award has marked the third time that the inn has earned this accolade since the current landlords took over in 2015. Each June the Alma Inn hosts Linton Festival, a three-day long music festival and, later in the year, the pub also stages the one-day-long Linton Summer Sessions. Both events raise money for various charities, most of which benefit the local community.

The property in brief:

Shutton House is believed to date back to the 1600s and because of its age, the property boasts a quirky atmospheric character but with a modern twist. The surprisingly large garden is laid out to the side of the property while a private courtyard is tucked away to the rear.

The front stable door leads into a small entrance hall and the generously proportioned lounge is found to the left. This room has wooden floors, thick walls, and attractive exposed beams to both the walls and ceiling, all of which present the property as a sublime chocolate-box cottage. This room also features a wood burning stove which is framed by historic exposed brickwork and has dual aspect windows and a window seat. The open-plan kitchen and dining is a lovely area to gather in during the day. The centrepiece of the room is the Rayburn cast iron cooker, which is set into an old stone fireplace which has a feature bread oven and decorative tiles. There is ample wall and base storage along with an island and additional space for a table and chairs. The kitchen was installed just a few years ago by Wren Kitchens and this features hard-wearing Corian work surfaces and basin, as well as integrated dish washer. The whole area is again nicely atmospheric and in keeping with the rustic feel of this country cottage. In addition, there are display niches, extensive beams to both the ceilings and walls, and a staircase leading off this room, as well as a stable door to the utility area and back porch lobby.

Upstairs the three ample bedrooms and recently refitted shower room. The master bedroom looks out to a lovely view of the garden and the room also houses the airing cupboard, along with built-in wardrobes. The two other bedrooms are currently accessed from the same entrance (ideal for two children or for someone wishing to use as a study or convert one into a dressing room). There is space however to create an entrance corridor, making for entirely separate access. Both bedrooms also feature built-in wardrobes and storage and have like the main bedroom feature exposed beams. The refitted shower room features a walk-in shower with waterfall shower, WC and wash basin/vanity unit.

Outside:

Below the property is the cellar, which is accessed through a large doorway. Once inside you will find a spacious room that could be ideal for bike storage or other uses. There is lighting and power.
The extensive gardens are wonderfully mature and feature phenomenal views of Herefordshire and Gloucestershire's rolling patchwork fields. There are various summerhouses plus a wooden cabin, which serves as an insulated garden office and is hooked up to Wi-Fi and electricity. There are also several decked-out seating areas, one of which is found near the top of the garden in a secret spot next to a chicken coop and further outbuilding. In all the gardens offer an idyllic space for those wanting to potter, grow vegetables, keep chickens, or just sit and enjoy the countryside views.
