A rare opportunity to own a unique Station House on the outskirts of the popular village of Luston. Nestled within the rural Herefordshire landscape with no near neighbours and your own private 'train spotting' platform. Once the private station for the Lord and Lady of Berrington Hall, Station House has been thoughtfully developed and presented by its current owners who have created a really comfortable and inviting home with a sympathetic nod to the past. With a total plot of 1.13 acres, landscaped grounds, pony paddock, gated driveway and ample parking, this is a home that we highly recommend viewing.
