Location

Positioned in a fabulous rural location with far reaching views, Coed Lank is positioned between Garway and Broad Oak. The hamlet of Broad Oak centres on a crossroads on the scenic B44251 road between St Owens Cross and the picturesque village of Skenfrith. Not far from Coed Lank is Garway. "A fine and proper village with real character, the centre of a scattered agricultural parish" (Herefordshire by Michael Raven). Opposite the Garway Moon pub is the fine cricket pitch, part of the large and attractive common, and nearby is the outstandingly 'green' new village hall, and well regarded primary school. Down the road from the common is the ancient Church of Saint Michael, associated with both the Knights Templars, and the Knights Hospitallers. Adjacent is a Grade I Listed Dovecoat, of 1326, "the finest Medieval Dovecote in England". The walls are 4' thick, and there are 666 resting places! On the outskirts of the village is beautiful Garway Hill (1200ft) from the summit of which, on a clear day, once can view seven counties! Coed Lank is well positioned for access to Ross and the M50, Monmouth, Hereford and Abergavenny.

Description

Grade II Listed, and believed to have been constructed in the 17th Century, Coed Lank is a stunning example of a traditional farmhouse. Like many period properties of this type, the original dwelling has been added to as successive owners have taken up residence. The current property one sees today, is the product of a beautiful renovation project, where many of the attractive period features such as flagstone floors, ceiling and wall beams, 17th Century Post & Muntin wall, and some exquisite doors have all been retained. The ground floor offers an exceptionally well proportioned drawing room, separate dining room, snug and farmhouse kitchen, whilst to the first floor, are three bedrooms, each with en-suite facilities, with a separate staircase giving access to the master suite with dressing room, bathroom and bedroom. In total providing in excess of 3,400sq ft of accommodation.

Externally the plot extends to approaching 4 acres. Informal gardens, surround the house, and include a swimming pool heated by an Air Source Heat Pump, which during the summer uses electricity produced by the solar array. The meadow, currently planted with wild flowers and teaming with wildlife in the summer, is bounded to one side by a small brook. This area has previously been a paddock used for grazing horses. There are also a range of outbuildings, offering both workshop facilities, potting shed, as well as a Dutch Barn with three internal stables. Situated close to the entrance gate, are both the garage and gym, with games room over, together with the two beautifully appointed two-bedroom annexes, ideal for either family visits or for use as an Airbnb with the potential to generate iro £25,000pa per unit.

In summary a fabulously charismatic home, with a Pre App and drawings produced to add an extension to the main dwelling, positioned in an enviable rural location, with surrounding gardens and paddocks, a range of versatile outbuildings and an opportunity to generate an income.
