Property Details

On the outskirts of the village of Clehonger and around five miles to the west of Hereford City centre, lies this eighteenth century, Georgian farmhouse, thirty acres of land and outbuildings with huge potential. An iron gate set into a stone wall leads you into the front garden and the path leading up to the main house. Lawns either side of the gravel path are surrounded by trees and well established shrubs. The front garden gives you the perfect perspective on the house and the grandeur it exudes over its three floors (not to mention the cellar beneath).

The front door - sheltered by an enclosed porch - takes you into the main entrance hall with what are currently used as bedrooms on either side - although they would serve well as reception rooms (dining room, snug, home office by way of examples). Both offer feature fireplaces and views out over the front garden with one having a view to the side. Past the staircase in the hall and through to the farmhouse kitchen beyond and the potential this property offers becomes even more evident.

There is a utility/scullery through a door to the side which also gives access to the family bathroom with freestanding bath, sink and wc. There is also direct access to the outside via the scullery. Back in the kitchen and there is plenty of room for a dining table and chairs with double doors leading into the main reception room which spans the width of the property across the back. At over eight metres in length, this would lend itself to a lounge and dining area with the kitchen next door to make it a great entertaining space; as well as one in which to relax with family and friends. There are multiple windows across the three external walls and some double doors leading out to the rear garden.

The two sets of stairs in the entrance hall give access to both the cellar - with its use for storage and possible development - and the upper floors. The first of these houses two more of the six bedrooms, both with fireplaces and both showing off the high ceilings hardwood floors common to the rest of the property. On the second floor, there are a further two bedrooms and a shower room. With some reconfiguration, this whole upper floor would make the perfect principle suite if desired.
The whole property would benefit from updating and possibly extending - subject to planning. With it not being listed, the possibilities are endless.

The back garden features a lawn and seating area which makes the most of the wonderful views across open countryside and ancient woodland.

Although also available for sale separately (see separate listing at £500,000), all of the above is included in these particulars which relate to the whole property as currently owned. This unique and special opportunity features around thirty acres of rolling Herefordshire countryside in addition to the aforementioned front and rear gardens. The multiple outbuildings include a steel frame barn, two detached barns and two stable blocks offering the potential to have the perfect equestrian facility. There is also the possibility of developing these buildings into more living accommodation, subject to planning and the necessary permissions being granted.

There is much to see and to discuss with this property and we would love to share more information with you. We also highly recommend viewing to fully appreciate what is on offer. There is huge potential to give its new owners the chance to create a unique home in a completely rural retreat alongside multiple development and business opportunities.
