Description

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached family home set within approximately 8.5 acres of private west-facing gardens and grounds, enjoying breathtaking panoramic views across the rolling Herefordshire countryside, towards the Welsh Borders and the Brecon Beacons. The elevated position provides stunning sunsets and an exceptional sense of privacy and seclusion.

Originally built in 1934, this characterful home occupies a commanding setting and offers significant scope for enhancement. Planning permission has already been granted for a substantial side extension, creating an exciting opportunity to further enlarge the accommodation. There is also potential to utilise the generous loft space, subject to the necessary consents.

The accommodation currently comprises an entrance porch and welcoming hallway, a spacious dual-aspect bay-fronted sitting room, separate dining room, family room, kitchen with pantry, and cloakroom/WC. On the first floor are four double bedrooms, including an impressive dual-aspect principal suite with en-suite facilities, together with a family bathroom.

A standout feature of the property is the detached brick-built hobby room/workshop, extending to approximately 700 sq ft with a mezzanine level and its own spectacular countryside views. The building offers excellent potential for conversion to an annexe, home office, holiday let or additional accommodation, subject to the necessary permissions. A discreetly positioned two-bedroom static caravan is also located within the grounds.

The extensive grounds include a wonderful blend of mature woodland, landscaped gardens, a large lake, wildlife habitats and land, making the property ideal for those seeking a peaceful, lifestyle or smallholding opportunity. A long, sweeping, tree-lined driveway provides an impressive approach and reinforces the property's private setting.
