Property Details

Located around twelve miles to the west of the City of Hereford lies this four bedroom farmhouse with separate two bedroom cottage. Set in around twelve acres made up of paddocks and a copse, the property also benefits from a six bay American style stables block and separate hay store making it the ideal equestrian facility if required. The set up of this small holding could make this an ideal self-sufficient farm, market garden or another similar business.

The main house is full of traditional features from beams in the ceilings and walls to exposed brickwork and vaulted ceilings. The lounge offers many of these features, with a brick-built feature fireplace housing a wood-burning stove, multiple exposed beams as well as more modern additions such as carpeted floor and wall lights.

Perhaps the true heart of the home can be found in the stunning kitchen/breakfast/dining room. It features a range of solid wood built wall and floor units in a mixture of drawers and cupboards. There is a Rayburn, space for an additional range cooker and a central island which has more cupboards and drawers, power sockets and a large square worktop area. One part of the room is currently set up with dining table and chairs but would work equally well with lounge/snug-style furniture.

The formal dining room features more of the exposed ceiling beams, carpeted floor, wall and pendant lights, window to one side and some double doors leading to the summer room/conservatory. This is a substantial addition to the house and offers further, versatile living accommodation. With windows all around, vaulted ceiling with retractable blinds, wooden flooring, power, lighting and radiators; this is a multi-purpose space for all-year round use which makes the most of the stunning views on all sides.
The first floor houses the four bedrooms which come in a variety of shapes and sizes and each have their own uniqueness about them with much more of the property’s history on display. One of the bathrooms is a unique feature in itself and certainly worthy of note. It is an oversized room which, alongside the bath, sink and wc, has part-tiled walls with space for various pieces of occasional furniture. Another bathroom features part-tiled walls, bath with shower attachment, wc and sink unit with storage.

The separate cottage is beautifully presented with neutral decor throughout. The hallway has a door to the right leading into a shower room with wc and sink. On the left is the door to the main, open-plan living space. The kitchen forms part of this space and is tucked away in one corner whilst still being open to, and feeling a part of, the room. There are a range of wall and floor units with integral appliances, worktop space along three sides and a breakfast bar with a wide worktop and an overhang for a couple of stools.

A wooden staircase leads up to the landing area with one bedroom off to either side. These are carpeted and feature exposed beams, wall heaters, multiple power points and recessed ceiling spotlights. One also features a skylight on each side. The landing also offers access to loft storage above and to the bathroom featuring bath with shower over, wc, sink, towel radiator and skylight. The cottage could present a good business opportunity for holiday or long-term rental or offer useful extra accommodation for guests. It may be of interest to note the cottage has change of use for residential.

On the outside of the main house, there are patio areas ideal for al-fresco dining, parking space for multiple vehicles, lawned areas and borders filled with well-established trees and shrubs all around. This is in addition to the aforementioned paddocks and copse. Words and pictures alone cannot fully convey the true scale and potential on offer here. We would be delighted to discuss it with you and viewing is highly recommended.
