Llangarron, Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire

Manor Brook House is an impressive detached four bedroom property set within approximately 7.7 acres of grounds, featuring a detached barn with residential planning consent, stables, a manège and far-reaching countryside views towards Garway Hill and the Black Mountains.

The Property

The property offers spacious and characterful family accommodation arranged over two floors and features exposed beams, stripped pine flooring, a woodburning stove, Aga and an attractive staircase rising to a spacious galleried landing.

The property is approached via a gated stone driveway and sits comfortably within its own private grounds. To the side is a generous gravelled parking area providing space for several vehicles.

The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall with doors leading to the reception rooms and staircase to the first floor. The spacious farmhouse-style kitchen is comprehensively fitted and includes an Aga, additional oven and hob, dishwasher, tiled flooring and ample space for a large dining table. A door leads through to the rear porch, providing practical space for coats and boots with access outside.

The sitting room features a woodburning stove and connects through to the dining room, currently utilised as a library. The dining room enjoys patio doors opening onto the rear garden and also provides access back to the entrance hall. Additional ground floor accommodation includes a utility / tack room, cloakroom and a generous home office, which could equally serve as a ground floor bedroom if required.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside, complemented by three further well-proportioned double bedrooms. The family bathroom is spacious and well appointed, featuring a freestanding bath, separate shower and bespoke oak vanity unit. The large landing includes an airing cupboard housing the hot water tank, loft access and useful under-eaves storage cupboards.

Outside

The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and surround the house with a variety of mature trees, shrubs and well-stocked borders. To the left of the property is a 25m x 40m sand school, while a rose arch leads from the main lawn into a productive orchard featuring apple, pear, Victoria plum, damson and cherry trees, together with a wildflower meadow area.

Positioned directly ahead as you approach via the driveway is the stable yard, comprising eight loose boxes, a foaling box, fodder store, rug room and covered storage for hay and bedding. Beyond the yard is a four-bay open-fronted agricultural barn with partial concrete flooring and electricity connected. The owners have recently secured residential planning consent on this barn which has permission for a four bedroom home with a separate access.

To the rear of the barn is a sheltered kitchen garden complete with a polytunnel, grapevine-covered potting shed and a sheltered patio area ideal for raising seedlings. There is also an established fruit cage with figs, kiwi, raspberry canes, blackcurrant and redcurrant bushes. Benefitting from the sheltered setting, the vegetable garden is bordered by apricot, peach, fig and cherry trees.

The land includes a paddock running alongside the driveway in front of the house, together with a larger main field accessed from either the drive or the lane, complete with two automatic water troughs. An additional field lies adjacent across the lane.
