Pike Stye is situated in the village of Marden. Within the village there is a general store and a post office, a church, pub and a primary school. The property is ideally situated for exploring the wealth that Herefordshire has to offer and gives an ideal combination of peaceful village life with more comprehensive amenities on offer in the cathedral city of Hereford, approximately 6.5 miles distant. Hereford offers an abundance of facilities, including a wide range of schooling (including the well renowned Hereford Cathedral School), an art college, retail outlets, leisure facilities, a football ground, hospital and the Courtyard Theatre. Excellent rail links to London Paddington and Birmingham New Street are also via Hereford whilst access to the motorway network, via junction 2 of the M50, is just 17 miles drive, just 25 minutes drive away.
The original part of Pike Stye Cottage is believed to date back to the 16th century and has been lovingly renovated and extended to provide a good size family home. The exposed timbers add to the wonderful warmth, character and charm of this lovely cottage. The living room, complete with beams, has a small, stone, inglenook fireplace with Clearview wood burning stove, ideal for those winter nights in by the fire. The beautifully beamed dining room, with its dual aspect windows, creates an inviting area for the enjoyment of shared meals. The kitchen, with Chinese slate flooring and warm oak units, has a built in oven and hob with space for dishwasher, washing machine and fridge/freezer. Off the kitchen is the family room; the perfect setting for informal entertainment. From the family room, doors lead out to the decking, garden and office building. The porch has room for coats and boots plus space for a tumble dryer. Stairs lead up from the dining area to the large landing on the first floor. The beamed master bedroom, with its dormer window, enjoys a lovely view of the garden. There is a large storage cupboard in the landing area. There is a double bedroom with views to Dinmore and a further single bedroom. The spacious, family bathroom has a white suite and shower over the bath.
Pike Stye Cottage is approached down a gravelled drive to a parking area. The large, delightful gardens have an abundance of shrubs, borders of colourful cottage plants and an impressive variety of fruit trees, including apple, peach, nut, damson, plum and an abundant fig tree. There is even a sloe for that homemade tasty beverage! An arbour to the side of the cottage is cloaked in a beautiful Wisteria. The light and spacious, totally renovated outbuilding has the benefit of being ready to use as a fully functioning office. There is also a storage area, currently used as a log store. A concrete base is ready for the erection of the approved double garage with room over. From the garden there is a field gate leading to the stock proof paddock with a stable block consisting of three stables and tack room. In the paddock there is also a substantial vegetable plot. The property also has its own well.
