WINSTON COURT FARMHOUSE



Winston Court Farmhouse provides an appealing detached 4-bedroom farmhouse which profits from excellent views across the Monmouthshire countryside. Externally the property is of a traditional stone construction finished with a light blue stone wash.



Internally the property is entered via the front door into the traditional farmhouse kitchen with tiled floor and Rayburn providing a great space for living and entertaining. Moving through into the utility and cloak room, with original flagstone floors and through to a rear porch/utility with basin and white goods there is ample space for storage. A downstairs bathroom with WC, shower, bath and basin complements the ground floor. A large pantry, again with flagstone floors, exposed beams and render finish provides an excellent larder space ancillary to the kitchen. Moving to the living room, which provides an excellent space for relaxing and benefits from a wood burner and timber floor. There is access to the first floor and also through to the original front door entrance and hallway, again with a staircase to the first floor. Within the hallway is a doorway to an additional reception/office room.



The first floor comprises four large double bedrooms (one currently a twin room). Two of the bedrooms benefit from dual aspect views with all bedrooms benefitting from basins. The bedrooms benefit from lots of natural light and provide excellent accommodation. The family bathroom with WC, bath and basin leads through into the twin bedroom. There is a doorway from one of the double bedrooms which provides access to the attic.



The property would benefit from some gentle modernisation internally but provides an excellent, traditional farmhouse in the most superb situation.



There is a small stone-built log store and walled gardens to the front of the dwelling, mainly laid to lawn with a number of fruit trees the garden provides a truly delightful space to relax and enjoy all the natural wonders the property offers. A mature cider orchard to the rear of the farmhouse provides an excellent addition to the property and gardens.



BUILDINGS



The buildings at Winston Court Farm provide tremendous potential to be brought back into utilisation to assist any farming/equestrian enterprise or, subject to gaining the necessary planning consents, the buildings do offer potential for changes of use to residential or holiday lets or providing additional attraction to the established glamping site.



Set within the most appealing courtyard the traditional buildings are mainly of a stone construction under a slate roof with stone, concrete, and earth floors. The main building is the most substantial and is in an excellent structural condition offering significant potential as mentioned above. Of traditional stone construction under a slate roof with many original features complimenting the character of the building. Split into three main compartments with mezzanine

floors over each 'end' of the building historically providing hay lofts but now used for general storage. The main internal section of the building provides scope for use alongside the glamping enterprise or similar.



Agent's Note; Planning permission is currently been investigated by the vendors for change of use to provide additional residential accommodation. An application is due to be submitted shortly comprising a conversion of the main barn to provide a 3-bedroom and a 4-bedroom dwelling. As yet, no formal application has been submitted but the pre application advice, architectural

designs and other information can be made available by request from the selling agent.



Aside from the above, it is assumed there is great potential for this to be pursued by a purchaser, should they wish, and that the building holds significant appeal for residential conversion or a wide range of other uses (STPP).



A second, significant range of farm buildings, adjoining the farmhouse, comprises the old dairy buildings, cart sheds and stabling of mainly a traditional stone construction with some more modern elevations under a slate roof with a concrete floor. Again, holding potential for changes of use (STPP) perhaps in addition to the main dwelling and/or as additional holiday lets or similar.



LAND



The land at Winston Court Farm provides an excellent opportunity to purchase a manageable and productive block of grassland which accompanies the Farmhouse and yard exceptionally well in a ring fence. Surrounding the farmyard the land provides a number of mainly level, manageable enclosures of productive grassland with some areas of mature woodland and hedgerows.



The glamping enterprise is located within Lot 1 and provides three of the most excellent safari tents. Providing first class accommodation for holiday goers looking to embrace the outdoors and natural beauty the area has to offer coupled with a private hot tub serving each tent. The established Seven Hills Hideaway is a magnificent addition to the sale. Planning was granted for the glamping site (ref. DC/2014/00472) for siting up to seven pre-erected tents. This could provide excellent scope for a purchaser to further develop the existing site and provide a larger offering to the leisure/tourist market and build on the reputation of the excellent site which is on offer as part of this exceptional property.



In all Lot 1 extends to approximately 52.48 acres (21.24 hectares) and is outlined in Red.
