Description
A charming 6-bedroom farmhouse with a detached 2-bedroom barn conversion offering letting potential, plus additional outbuildings, all set in a stunning location with panoramic views.
Nestled on the brow of a hill, Hilters Farm House enjoys a prime position with breath-taking southerly views. This handsome detached farmhouse, set in expansive gardens, is complemented by a range of versatile outbuildings, including a 2-bedroom barn conversion, an unconverted two-storey party barn, and a triple garage.
Approached via a long, private driveway, the property offers seclusion and privacy, with minimal visibility from the lane. In the same ownership since 1988, the farmhouse has been lovingly renovated over the years and is not historically listed. There is no onward chain.
The main house is beautifully presented and arranged across three floors, with a large cellar beneath. Upon entering, you are greeted by two spacious reception rooms on either side of the entrance hall. The farmhouse kitchen, located at the rear of the house, leads to a courtyard and the garden via a utility room. Adjacent to the kitchen is a study and a large practical utility room.
While the house boasts generous proportions, it retains many original features, including ingle nook fireplaces, exposed beams, and flagstone floors. A charming salting block remains in the kitchen, adding character to the home.
The first-floor principal bedroom benefits from stunning views of the Cotswolds and May Hill and includes a dressing room and separate shower room. Three additional double bedroom suites are located on the first floor. The second floor hosts three further large double bedrooms and a bathroom.
Converted into a two-bedroom cottage in 2007, the Cider House offers independent living with a private garden and large west-facing windows that flood the space with natural light. Included in the 2004 application to convert the Cider Barn into a cottage, is planning permission, now existing in perpetuity, to create a two bedroom apartment at the first floor level (Forest of Dean District Council planning reference -P0246/04/COU).
The gardens surrounding the property are mature and beautifully landscaped, with formal borders and specimen trees. There are multiple private seating and dining areas on all sides of the house, perfect for enjoying the scenic surroundings. To the west, a large croquet lawn leads to a productive kitchen garden and orchard.
In addition to the triple garage with a store room above, the property includes several useful tool and machinery sheds, complementing the garden.
The adjacent two-storey party barn, currently used for storage, offers endless potential for a variety of uses, subject to necessary planning permissions.
Hilters Farm House provides a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious family home with excellent potential for additional income through the barn conversion, all within easy reach of Newent and surrounded by stunning countryside.
