Description
Lot 1: Little Corras
Little Corras is a characterful unlisted Herefordshire stone farmhouse. The property is approached via a single track driveway and sits in an elevated position with far-reaching views over the Welsh countryside and Garway Hill. The property is located in an attractive rural setting, surrounded by farmland and with views across to Little Corras Wood.
Little Corras Farmhouse
The spacious entrance hall with Herefordshire flagstones, continues throughout the ground floor of the property. There is a cozy sitting room, large dining room/reception room with exposed timber beams and open fireplaces. The dining room leads through to kitchen with a back door onto the garden and lean to/greenhouse. There are two further reception rooms which could be used as a utility room, boot room or study.
A staircase from the entrance hall leads down to a cellar with two large rooms with windows and an opening outside for access from the west elevation.
Upstairs, there are three generous bedrooms, benefitting from open fireplaces with views over an orchard and pond and a further small/single bedroom. There is a shower room and landing with airing cupboard.
The property is in need of a full refurbishment.
Garden and Outbuildings
The front garden is laid to lawn with views across an orchard and pond (further land may be available by separate negotiation). There is lawn to the rear, with mature trees and shrubs and surrounded by mature hedgerows.
Adjacent to the farmhouse, is a timber frame and stone outbuilding with a concrete floor. The building could be used for storage or as a carport. Opposite is a stone stable block comprising two stables and store with windows under a fibre cement roof. There is an external stone staircase leading to a hayloft.
The stone buildings present opportunity for conversion to ancillary uses, subject to the necessary planning consents.
There are further barns available (Lot 2) with Class Q consent for residential conversion with a guide price of £230,000.
