Trecilla Farm, Trecilla Stables & Brook Barn
Llangarron, HR9 6NQ
£2,400,000

A unique opportunity to acquire a substantial farmhouse with two residential barns, Trecilla Stables and Brook Barn, one of which is a current holiday let, The Granary and a further barn with potential (subject to the necessary consents) and all set in approximately 10 acres. This whole site has great business potential being in a desirable village within close proximity of Symonds Yat, AONB, and The Royal Forest of Dean. Equally the properties could suit those looking for extended family living in this fabulous setting. The whole site of approximately 10 acres has good equestrian/ grazing facilities, with stables, tack room and hay store and both paddocks have separate gated entrance.

[Location
Llangarron is a pretty village situated between the market towns of Monmouth and Ross-on-Wye, both of which offer a good range of shopping facilities, dining and leisure pursuits. While both give a range of reputable schools, Monmouth boasts private schooling options for boys and girls aged 3-18.
Llangarron itself has a welcoming village community; there are three venues - The Garron Centre, St Deinst Church and LLangarron Village Hall. Not only do these give residents a place to gather, but a variety of events are also staged in these settings, such as classical concerts, coffee mornings and yoga classes.
The spectacular setting of Symonds Yat, which is one of the most well-known landscapes within the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is a short drive (around ten minutes) from Llangarron. This location is famed for its phenomenal river scenery, woodland expanses and limestone cliffs. There are several riverside pubs and restaurants which are exceedingly popular with residents and tourists alike, and a wide range of outdoor pursuits; walking, cycling, canoeing and wild-swimming, are easily accessible. At Symonds Yat, the Biblins swing bridge, which crosses the Wye, leads over to the Forest of Dean - giving access to thousands of acres of hikes through the wilderness.
Llangarron is also set within easy access to the major road networks; the A40 is around a mile away and the eastbound road provides a direct route to Gloucester, Cheltenham and the Cotswolds. Meanwhile, motorists heading in the opposite direction can journey towards the M4 at Newport which gives access to Cardiff and London. In addition, the M50 motorway begins in Ross, and this gives good access to the M5.

Trecilla Farm
Outside
Trecilla Farm is surrounded by idyllic rolling farmland and the gardens offer the owner their corner of private, unspoiled countryside.
There is an immaculately-kept traditional country garden at the front of the property and this beautifully sets the scene for the tranquil country home. This area has a manicured lawn bordered by flower beds as well as a Mulberry tree, apple tree and fig tree. There is also a cider press stone, which is framed beautifully by a pergola that supports an established grapevine.
A lovely circular walk takes visitors around the home, displaying that every area of the garden is as exquisite as the next. To one side of the farmhouse, there is an extensive kitchen garden which features two greenhouses, as well as several raised beds and, beyond here, there is an enclosed arboretum containing a variety of mature specimen trees which lead to the Garren Brook.
Behind the home, there is an orchard which gives a variety of fruit trees, including plums, eating apples and cooking apples. There is also an expansive paddock which has a stable and store, and this area has an appealing backdrop of the village of Llangarron and the pretty spire of St Deinst Church. There are also several field shelters and hay stores and, closer to the home, there are enclosed pens which currently serve as a home for the goats.
Nearby, a little fruit bed area gives redcurrants, blackcurrants, rhubarb and gooseberries and there is a small walled garden which has a level lawn, an old water pump and a patio seating area - making it the perfect spot for an outdoor lounge or alfresco dining area.
Further around the home, there is a serene spot; there is a grass lawn with large Nissen hut, behind which bluebells and wild garlic bloom. There is also a damson tree as well as a walnut tree growing within the expanse.

Inside
This elegant home dates back to the 16th century, therefore the property certainly possesses oodles of character. The main entrance is sheltered beneath a sturdy porch, which was put in around five years ago by the present owners.
The reception hall gives an excellent first impression of the home; there are exposed timber frames and beams which present the property as a sublime chocolate-box home - and these delightful features are also found in many of the reception rooms in the main part of the home.
On the left, there is a Victorian extension and this hosts a grand, dual-aspect drawing room - a striking space which has high ceilings, picture rails, window shutters and a feature fireplace.
There are four more reception rooms on the ground floor of the property, one of which is the study which includes an old bread oven and this is lit to exhibit its depth. There is also a cosy sitting room which carries a stone fireplace which houses a wood-burning stove.
There is also a music room which leads through into a capacious dining room which typically accommodates 12 diners very comfortably. There is a hatch connecting this room with the country kitchen - a lovely, light-streamed space which boasts a pleasing view of the village from its windows.
The kitchen carries a pitched ceiling and exposed beams, but the principal focal point is the Aga cooker which is magnificently showcased beneath some gorgeous painted tiles. The kitchen also contains a conventional electric oven and hob, as well as a double Belfast sink, solid wooden worktops, a multitude of base and wall units - some of which are glass fronted - and there is space for an American-style fridge/freezer and a freestanding dishwasher.
There is also a separate and substantial utility room which gives space and plumbing for a washing machine and a tumble dryer, plus a wealth of additional food storage space as the room contains built-in wooden units. At the far end, there is a cloakroom tucked away in the corner.
The first floor of the property houses four bedrooms, all of which have en-suite facilities. As the master bedroom is housed within the Victorian extension, there are some steps leading up to this voluminous, dual-aspect area. Much like the drawing room beneath, the master bedroom has high ceilings and the largest window overlooks the flawless front garden and countryside beyond. There is an en-suite shower room, complete with a walk-in double shower, basin, WC and towel rail.
Of the remaining three bedrooms, two have borrowed lights over the doorway - colourful panes of glass over their doorways to let light pour into the hallway running between the bedrooms.
The largest of these bedrooms has a beautiful fireplace with ornately decorated tiling plus an en-suite bathroom, complete with a bath with shower overhead, plus a basin, WC and airing cupboard. The other two bedrooms are similar to one another; they each feature en-suite shower rooms, complete with three-piece suites, and one of these bedrooms includes a cast iron fireplace, which serves as a particularly charming focal point.
Just off this hallway, there is a generous linen cupboard which is large enough to be used as a dressing room.
The annexe, which is named 'The Granary', can be accessed either via the farmhouse kitchen through the lockable door in the main part of the home, or from two external doors which lead into an expansive dining kitchen. This area feels wonderfully spacious due to its high, pitched ceiling - a feature which is beautified by exposed ceiling trusses. The kitchen itself includes a conventional electric oven and hob, as well as space for a dishwasher and fridge/freezer. A step down leads to the sitting room, which includes spotlighting.
A staircase in the dining kitchen leads to the first floor of the annexe. This has a roomy master bedroom which includes a vaulted ceiling and wooden panelling, as well as a smaller bedroom, which presently accommodates a set of bunk beds. Both bedrooms boast lovely views and there is a family bathroom which houses a bath with shower overhead, basin, WC, heated towel rail and an airing cupboard. It is also worth noting that The Granary has its own hot water and cold water tanks, giving additional independence from the home.
A stone barn in the garden offers an ideal entertaining space; double doors open into the triple-aspect sunroom which is streamed with light and feels immensely spacious, owing to the vaulted ceiling. Beyond here, there is a cinema room which is large enough to accommodate several sofas as well as a bar area. This area carries a wonderfully rustic character, owing to the exposed stone walls, window shutters and exposed beams.
It is also worth noting that this stone barn gives plenty of storage for gardening equipment, as well as a space large enough to be used as a workshop. The building has 24 solar panels on the roof with battery storage and these provide most of the electricity for the home itself the building is heated via an air-source heat pump.
(please note this barn has further potential to convert into a holiday let or annexe, naturally subject to the necessary consents ).

Trecilla Stables
This handsome barn was converted in 2011 and is beautifully presented and has a lovely flow and feel to the property. The main entrance to the stone-built property leads into a lovely reception hall, which includes a cloakroom. This gives an excellent first impression of the home - the high ceiling accentuates the broad size of the expanse and, as the accommodation is all laid out on a single level, every room in the home carries a vaulted ceiling as well as exposed a-frames and this creates a wonderful sense of space. It is also worth noting that there is under floor heating throughout the property.
The kitchen is open-plan with the dining room and this is a beautifully bright area; plenty of light cascades in through four skylights, as well as windows on either side of the room. There is a ceiling fan in the dining area - and this is particularly beneficial on warm days. The well-equipped kitchen includes modern, integrated appliances such as an oven, microwave and dishwasher, plus an induction hob, concealed extractor fan, a Franke double sink and Shaker-style cabinets and pull-out cupboards which give a wealth of food storage space.
Just off the kitchen, there is a utility room tucked away in one corner and this has space and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer and - as the boiler is also housed in this area - the room stays perpetually warm, making it a perfect spot to air-dry laundry.
The property also includes two reception rooms - the largest of which is the sitting room. This features wall-to-wall windows which let lots of natural light pour in and these look out to a courtyard - and use of this is shared with the neighbouring property. There is also another central ceiling fan which helps to circulate the air on warm days. Meanwhile, the snug - the second reception room - is another sunlit room as it contains a set of French doors which lead out to the shared courtyard.
A single step leads up to a corridor which gives access to two spacious double bedrooms, both of which include ceiling fans, built-in wardrobes, cupboards and fixed dressing tables, as well as en-suite shower rooms which each contain a three-piece suite, plus heated towel rails. Of the bedrooms, one is dual aspect and enjoys a beautiful view of the surrounding patchwork fields and this space easily accommodates a super king-size bed. The other double bedroom is triple aspect and most of the light streams in through floor-to-ceiling windows on one side of the room which look out to the shared courtyard.
Outside, there is a lovely level lawn which serves as a delightful spot to enjoy the tranquillity and birdsong of the area. There is also a hard standing within the garden and this could be used as a base to construct a summerhouse, garage or outbuilding (subject to planning). In terms of parking, there is a gravel driveway, giving space to accommodate three vehicles. To the rear of the property there is a good courtyard area.
Brook Barn
A desirable barn which was converted in 2011 and now provides spacious accommodation presented in a neutral pallete with a splendid sitting room having high vaulted ceilings and full glass doors either side creating a light and airy ambience.
The main entrance to the home leads into a grand, open-plan area - a spectacular space which carries timelessly beautiful feature, such as exposed beams and a vaulted ceiling; this gives visitors an instant impression of how expansive the property is and natural light pours into the dual-aspect area through two sets of French doors with sidelights.
The room presently accommodates a playroom, sitting room, office, dining room and - through a cased opening - there is a well-equipped kitchen which includes a range of integrated appliances including a dishwasher, conventional oven and microwave. There is also a ceramic hob and space for a washing machine, dishwasher and an American-style fridge/freezer. From here, a recently-fitted wood-effect PVC door which leads out to the driveway.
On the opposing side of the ground floor, there is a doorway which leads to a shower room as well as one of the bedrooms - although this is presently used as another substantial sitting room.
There are two staircases which lead to the first floor, which is split into two sides. On one, there is a spacious bedroom which, much like the other bedrooms on this level of the property, features exposed beams, a vaulted ceiling and skylights which let sunlight cascade in. Across the hall, there is another bedroom, which captures a lovely view of the fields beyond the garden.
The other wing of the first floor leads to another lovely light-streamed bedroom as well as a family bathroom - complete with a bath, shower, basin, WC and chrome-heated towel rail.
Throughout the property, there is plenty of built-in storage - and the recesses under each of the two staircases give especially large areas.
The outside space
Brook Barn has two lovely outdoor areas - on one side of the property, there is an enclosed lawn which incorporates three paved areas to offer spaces to dine sunbathe or even set up a pool or hot tub.
On the opposite side of the property, there is a courtyard and use of this is shared with Trecilla Stables, which at present has central fencing so to give a degree of privacy to both barns There is also a covered area - which could be adapted into a garden room (STP) or a garden bar - and Brook Barn has exclusive ownership of this space.
In terms of parking, there is a gravel driveway and the sun rises at this side of the property and travels over the home during the course of the day - meaning that there is always a sunny and a shady spot to choose from.

Underfloor heating throughout the ground floor - there are three zones controlled by Energymizer thermostats; one in the kitchen/dining area, one in the main living area and one in the downstairs bathroom/fourth bedroom-cum-sitting room.

Brook Barn - (potential speculative figures) - currently used for residential purposes, however was originally let out in 2016, offers great potential for holiday letting (subject to necessary consents) which has four bedrooms, so one would assume for holiday letting if this is possible and assuming it had the same occupancy then it could be at the very least (or 15% more) the same income as Trecilla Stables, naturally one would need to take advise from the holiday letting experts with regards potential figures.
Detached barn in the grounds of the farmhouse, currently with sun room and cinema room which boasts a projector with large electric screen, also has to the rear a workshop and store and second floor. This also offers scope for conversion into an ancillary accommodation for annexe etc purposes ( subject to the necessary consents)
