Description

Downwood Farmhouse is a charming stone farmhouse occupying an elevated position and enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding Herefordshire countryside. The property offers spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors, complemented by established gardens, useful sheds and surrounding woodland, creating an appealing rural home with excellent potential.

The property is approached via a driveway providing ample parking and access to the house and garden areas. Downwood Farmhouse is attached to the neighbouring property by the utility room, while still enjoying a strong sense of privacy and a peaceful countryside setting.

Entering the property, the entrance hall provides access to the principal ground floor accommodation and staircase rising to the first floor. The living room is a generous and welcoming reception space enjoying attractive countryside views. The room is centred around a brick fireplace fitted with a Clearview wood-burning stove, creating a warm focal point and a cosy atmosphere. A second reception room offers additional flexibility and could serve equally well as a snug, sitting room or study.

The kitchen/dining room forms the heart of the home, fitted with a range of wooden base units with work surfaces over and ample space for a dining table. Windows allow plenty of natural light while providing pleasant outlooks towards the gardens and courtyard areas, making it a sociable space for everyday family life. Leading from the kitchen is the utility room, which provides additional storage and space for appliances together with access outside. Further ground floor accommodation includes a studio/office annexe, providing a flexible space suitable for home working, creative use or hobbies, and offering potential to be adapted as a self-contained holiday let or granny annexe, subject to the necessary consents. The family bathroom is located on the ground floor and is fitted with a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC.

Stairs rise to the first floor landing, which leads to the bedroom accommodation. The principal bedroom enjoys a bright outlook with far-reaching countryside views, while three further bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation for family or guests. The first floor also benefits from a separate WC, providing additional convenience.

Outside, the property enjoys established gardens with lawns, mature planting and pathways leading through the grounds. Beyond the formal gardens the land extends into a woodland area, which in turn leads onto neighbouring fields, creating a wonderful sense of space and connection with the surrounding countryside. For those who enjoy walking, the property benefits from a right of way into the adjacent field, which provides direct access towards the Mortimer Trail and Shobdon Hill Woods, offering excellent opportunities for countryside walks. The grounds also include three garden sheds, one of which is a larger shed fitted with a workbench, providing useful storage and practical workspace.

Downwood Farmhouse presents a wonderful opportunity to acquire a characterful rural home with generous accommodation, adaptable space and beautiful countryside views in a peaceful Herefordshire setting.
