Notes and Comments:

Situation and Description
The Odd House forms part of the small village of Blakemere and is one of a cluster of individual properties that lie close to the church and village green. Local services are available at the larger villages of Madley, Bredwardine, Peterchurch and Staunton on Wye. More extensive facilities can then be found at Hereford (11 miles) and at the ever-popular market town of Hay on Wye (8 miles), with its world famous annual literary festival.

Standing in a well enclosed plot of approximately ¼ of an acre this large barn was partly converted and extended into a house in the 1970’s. The current accommodation includes three bedrooms and three reception rooms as well as two bathrooms and kitchen/dining space. However, the existing living space is now in need of renovation and improvement.

New plans were approved on the 7th June 2023 to make better use of the existing and unused space and now provide the opportunity to create a very spacious five bedroomed house with five bathrooms, two main reception rooms, a vaulted entrance hall, excellent kitchen/dining space and plenty of ancillary rooms. The garden and parking area lies to the rear and is enclosed on all sides providing plenty of room for the creation of a more formal garden, parking area and new garaging.

The current plans are attached and also available on the Herefordshire planning portal , https://www.herefordshire.gov.uk/info/200142/planning_services/planning_application_search application number 231762 ,grid ref :336204:241205.

In our view this unusual property offers huge potential to create a very individual and spacious family home and would be of interest to investors, developers and private individuals who have always wanted a self-build project.
