Offa House
Hereford
HR1 2PQ
A substantial former Grade II listed 17th Century rectory which has been re-modelled and extended over a number of periods. This interesting, detached property, which is constructed of old sandstone, retains a wealth of character and charm but is now in need of renovation work to restore it to its former glory.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and combines the principal living area and ancillary accommodation along with an adjacent semi-detached cottage, which has been modernised in the past and used as holiday accommodation.
Many period features have been retained, including fireplaces, exposed beams, some stone mullion windows and much more.
The extensive accommodation, which includes the integrated, self-contained annex, has potential for 6 bedrooms with 4 good sized reception rooms.
Another of the property’s many features include its extensive part-walled gardens and its adjoining land, in total extending to approximately 2.5 acres. There is timber Stabling, a Feed Room, Tack Room and Shelters and therefore ideal for buyers with equestrian interests.
As previously mentioned, there is an excellent 2 bedroom cottage, which has the potential to provide an additional income.
The property offers a wonderful opportunity for someone that is prepared to do significant work but appreciate that these properties rarely come to the market and therefore an opportunity not to be missed.
There is no ongoing chain.
