A delightful Grade II listed smallholding set in approximately 25 acres with an additional barn conversion providing further ancillary accommodation

Description - White Haywood Farm is found in a stunning position just in the lea of the Black Mountains. Craswall is well known for its stunning scenery, peace and tranquility with beautiful views over the Monnow Valley. The farm offers excellent opportunties and is set in approximately 25 acres. The land is ring-fenced and includes a wide range of modern outbuildings including a menage.

Location - Craswall is a linear settlement approximately 8 miles from Hay-on-Wye. The village is known as a highly desirable destination for holiday makers and those seeking somewhere far from the maddening crowd. Craswall is a haven for wildlife, recreation and yet very accessible from the M4 Motorway (Junction 24 Newport)
Hay-on-Wye is a renowned, bustling market town which is popular with tourists and famous for its annual literary festival. The town, often referred to as the town of books due to its wealth of second -hand bookshops, offers an excellent range of services and facilities including boutique shops, restaurants, cafes, a supermarket, a medical practice, dental surgeries, primary school, cinema and several public houses.
The Black Mountains offer excellent walking and riding opportunities with the Offa’s Dyke path being a popular walking route.

The Farmhouse - The Grade II Listed farmhouse dates back to the mid 17th Century and is of traditional stone construction, retaining a multitude of original perid features including flagstone floors, plank and muntin partitions and inglenook fireplaces. There are also leaded windows and a wealth of exposed beams. The farmhouse is accessed via a porch to the front of the property which leads into a hallway. Immediately to the right is a sitting room, which has previously been used as a bedroom, with an adjacent shower room and further room (previously used as a separate entrance).
From the hall, a set of steps lead up to another bedroom.
The kitchen, which has been recently fitted, offers a wide range of wall and base cupboard storage, work surfaces, an inglenook fireplace containing an oil-fired Rayburn and a large island next to the large window opening. A further doorway leads into the sitting room which features an exceptional inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove, windows to the front and a set of doors out into the garden.
A step up from the sitting room finds a dining room with windows to the side. A further door leads into the former kitchen which is currently used as a utility room with plumbing for a washing machine, a sink and further cupboard storage and worksurfaces. Alongside the utility room is a boot room with a door leading to the outside.
From the sitting room an additional door leads to a downstairs bathroom with close-coupled W.C, panel bath with shower over, wash-hand basin and a window.
A staircase next to the inglenook fireplace, leads to the first-floor landing which provides access to three bedrooms and a bathroom.

The Barn - Across from the main house is a barn of stone, timber and tiled roof construction. This is an exceptional space and is used as ancillary accommodation to the main dwelling. In the past it has been used as part of a tourism business and could be again (subject to the necessary planning consents).
The barn has a large kitchen with a door opening into the main reception area. This area is of exceptional proportion, the
main room being 12m long with windows to the rear and a set of double doors to the front.
A doorway leads out into two washrooms with both separate male and female facilities and an additional disabled shower room.
From the main reception room, a set of steps lead downstairs to an ensuite bedroom with a separate door to the outside and another door leading into a small hallway with an independent door to the outside and another set of steps which give access to another ensuite bedroom on the first floor.

Outside - The property is accessed from the village road along its own independent, fence-lined concrete driveway. Adjacent to the house there is a garage with an up and over door and a separate pedestrian door next to the porch.
The main yard offers an extensive area of laid concrete and in total approximately 14,000 square feet of buildings which provide excellent opportunities for livestock handling, storage or workshops.
The current owners use the buildings for their own horses and have partitioned the space into stables with ample feed and hay storage areas. Just below the building there is an all weather menage (approx 40m x 20m) with a sand and wax surface.

The Land - Overall, the property is set in approximately 25 acres of gently sloping pasture with further level areas and a considerable amount of re-fencing has been carried out to ensure that the area is stock proof.
It is noted that the footpath which formerly lead through the centre of the property has been re-routed (further details can be provided upon request).
