Situation and Description
Woolhope is a delightful rural village tucked well away from main roads in rolling Herefordshire countryside. There is a village church and excellent pub within walking distance as well as a tennis club and a nature reserve. The larger village of Fownhope is 3 miles away and offers an excellent range of services, including a private leisure club, doctors’ surgery, pubs and restaurants, a butchers’ and more. The cathedral city of Hereford is also within easy reach and has an extensive range of facilities including a mainline train station.
2 The Courtyard forms part of a large country house which has since been divided to create a number of very individual properties in a delightful setting. In essence now the ground floor wing of the main house, the property still retains much of its original character and offers large and adaptable living space. Greatly improved by the current owners, the accommodation is light and bright with a very comfortable sitting room and large and well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room. The accommodation benefits from oil fired central heating throughout, a converted basement provides gym and office space and there is a delightful walled garden with lovely views.
On arrival, a large front door leads into a very spacious hall with sash windows to the front, radiators, quarry tiled floor and archway to a rear study area with built in cupboard.
The main sitting room is an impressive space and has sash windows to the front, a fitted carpet, fireplace at one end with wood burner and glazed doors leading to the gardens.
