Description

Believed to date back to the 17th Century, Cold Green Farm is a Grade II Listed black and white half timbered detached farmhouse situated in a pleasant rural setting enjoying far reaching views toward the Malvern Hills. Extending to approximately 4,700 square feet, the characterful accommodation boasts a number of period features including exposed beams, attractive fireplaces, solid internal doors, impressive oak staircase and parquet flooring. The property has been a much loved family home for over 40 years and requires some modernisation and refurbishment. It offers a fantastic opportunity for a prospective purchaser to put their own stamp on it.

Arranged over three floors, the accommodation on the ground floor comprises an enclosed porch, shower room, impressive reception hall with wood burning stove, drawing room with two bay windows overlooking the garden, formal dining room, living room, 19ft long breakfast kitchen, useful store room and utility room. From the reception hall a solid oak staircase leads to the first floor landing, off which there are four principal bedrooms, dressing room and two bathrooms. A further staircase leads to the second floor where there are three attic bedrooms and additional storage space.

Outside, Cold Green Farm is set in an area of mature grounds extending to approximately ONE ACRE and include large areas laid to lawn, an impressive array of mature trees and two large ponds.

OUTBUILDINGS

The outbuildings comprise a substantial range of former hop kiln, workshops and storage buildings, extending to approximately 795 sq meters (8,500 sq ft). In their current form they offer a great opportunity for workshops, garaging, storage and would be ideally suited to the running of a business (subject to all necessary planning consents). Planning consent has been granted for the conversion of the buildings to create five independent residential dwellings. Permission was granted by Herefordshire Council in June 2017. Planning application number 172143. We are advised a meaningful start on the planning consent has been made. Further details are available from the agent's Ledbury office.
