5 bedroom house

SPACIOUS 5 BEDROOM DETACHED HOUSE SET IN 25 ACRES OF PASTURE LAND
ELEVATED POSITION WITH VIEWS AND AWAY FROM MAIN ROADS
GARDENS, LARGE BRICK BUILT BARN

A very well extended, spacious 5 bedroom detached property in this extremely sought after residential area. Poole Hill occupies an outstanding rural location with far reaching views over north Herefordshire. The property has extremely spacious, well planned residential accommodation together with a large traditional brick built barn, which has potential for conversion to further domestic accommodation (no specific planning enquiries have been made).

Poole Hill is very well maintained, the extended accommodation having the benefit of full double glazing and oil-fired central heating.

In addition to the principal property, the barn does, in our opinion, fulfil the criteria for conversion to a residential property, whether it be next to the existing or independent. It also has an independent access.

The land is all laid to pasture, fully fenced with water supply.

Situation - The village of Breinton is one of the most sought after parts of Herefordshire, being located a short driving distance to the west of the City Centre in very picturesque open countryside, a short distance from the River Wye. Hereford is a brisk walk and there is a network of well established footpaths leading to facilities in the Kings Acre area.

Outside - The property is accessed via a stoned track, as indicated on the attached plan. The track is within the ownership of Poole Hill, however, neighbouring properties do have rights of access and maintenance obligations.

The gated entrance leads to a large concrete courtyard with brick arched access through to the spacious gardens.

The gardens are very well landscaped, primarily laid to lawn with many raised beds, shrubs, mature trees, Summer House, ornamental ponds. To the front of the property is a gravelled garden area with decking, all fully enclosed and offering much privacy. In addition, there is access to a full sized enclosed tennis court.

The Barn - A traditional, well maintained brick barn which would fulfil the criteria (in our opinion) for conversion to residential dwelling. No specific planning enquiries have been made, however, it is clearly redundant from modern agricultural use, it has been extremely well maintained and is worthy of retention.

The barn is constructed of solid brick under a sheeted roof with steel joists, the large granary doors leading to an open area (13.88m x 5.54m) with through access to the paddock adjoining. To the side, as an integral part of the building, is a Wood Store 5.5m x 2.74m and former Cattle Shed 5.5m x 4.28m with cobble floors and stalls.

The Land - The land is in three enclosures, as per the attached plan, all laid to pasture with two separate water supplies. One particular feature of the land is the natural pond immediately opposite Poole Hill. This is a most attractive feature and has never been known to run dry.

Vehicular access is provided to the land over the track.

There is a radio mast sited within the most western paddock. This mast has been redundant for a number of years and is within the ownership of the property and does pass with the property.

The Track - From the Council maintained highway, to the extent of the hard surface, this is owned by the vendors. The first section being tarmac, the balance being stone surface. There are only a limited number of users who have full vehicular right of way for all purposes at all times and they are obliged to pay for any maintenance obligation that they have, however, it is a private road owned by Poole Hill. It also a right of way for walkers, as we believe it is identified as a bridle way.

Services - Mains water and electricity. Septic tank drainage. Oil-fired central heating. The water supplies to the fields are metered, the supply to the house is not.

Council Tax Band - Band G.

Directions - From Hereford Wye Bridge turn into Barton Road over railway bridge into Breinton Road. After a short distance bear left staying on Breinton Road and follow country lane for 2.5 km.
