5 bedroom house

Believed to date from at least the 17th Century, with a possible 15th Century core, White House Farm is an attractive timber framed and partly red brick faced family home offering more than 3,700 sq ft of light filled flexible accommodation. The current owners have sensitively modernised the property to combine the amenities of modern living with preserved character, including exposed wall and ceiling beams, flagstone floors and some 19th Century fireplaces.

The ground floor accommodation flows from the
entrance hall and on to the kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with bespoke timber units and Redfire range cooker. A door leads into the family room which has exposed timber floor boards and attractive fireplace with stove. Beyond is the drawing room with an impressive inglenook and multifuel stove and a beautiful view over the front garden.

Also on the ground floor is a spacious cloakroom with shower unit. From the kitchen a door leads down to the sitting room, a cosy space with multifuel stove and doors out to the terrace. The boiler room provides useful storage and space for additional white goods.

Stairs rise from the entrance hall to the spacious first floor landing, which lead to four generous double bedrooms, all having views of the stunning grounds and countryside beyond. These rooms are served by two well-appointed bathrooms. A separate staircase rises from the sitting room to a further landing giving access to an additional dual aspect bedroom with vaulted ceiling and a bathroom with contemporary freestanding bath. Stairs rise again to the second floor where there are two useful attic rooms, one currently used as an office.

Holiday Cottages
The property offers a wonderful opportunity to generate an income from the three existing holiday units. Attached to the main house is Dee’s Cottage, a one bedroom unit with open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room and to the first floor, the Cider Press, a two bedroom unit with sitting room and kitchen. The Wain House offers two storey accommodation, with a large kitchen/dining room and sitting room with log burning stove. To the first floor are two bedrooms and a shower room. All units have their own private access.

The Hay Barn
Adjacent to the house is a large L-shaped two storey barn extending to more than 3,200 sq ft.
This space offers a plethora of opportunities for
development either into further accommodation
or perhaps a business use (subject to the necessary planning consents).

White House Farm sits in a typical Herefordshire
landscape of rolling hills, arable farmland and
orchards and is just under seven miles north west of the bustling and historic cathedral city of Hereford. All of the necessary day-to-day amenities can be found in Hereford, including a
wide range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants,
pubs and cafés, plus superb leisure facilities. The
area boasts an excellent choice of schooling,
including two “outstanding” rated primary schools. Hereford has a mainline station offering services to Cardiff and London, while the M50 motorway is just over 20 miles away. The nearby village of Weobley also offers a useful range of shops and facilities.

White House Farm is approached over a gravelled driveway with ample parking leading to a detached open fronted garage flanked to either side with store rooms. Ornamental gates lead into the beautiful gardens, which are a particular feature of the property. A deep flagstone terrace runs along the south east elevation of the house offering views over the lawns to the spring fed lake. The gardens are planted with a wide variety of trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants offering year round interest and colour. A large lawn leads down to the lake, which is a haven for wildlife and provides an
ever-changing scene in all weathers. A summer
house, with log burning stove, offers a charming
spot to sit and reflect on the property’s beauty
and stunning setting.

The grounds also include a gravelled area with
raised beds and fruit trees including apple, pear
and plum trees.

A range of stables, tack/feed room and paddock
provide an opportunity for either equestrian use
or small livestock.
