Brook Farm
Set within approximately a quarter of an acre of peaceful grounds, this former agricultural barn presents an exceptional opportunity to create a bespoke country home in an enviably tranquil setting. Planning permission has been granted for its conversion into a four-bedroom residence, incorporating a generous open-plan dining kitchen, sitting room and two bathrooms, including an en-suite to the principal bedroom. The property will also benefit from a carport and workshop/garage.
Occupying a wonderfully secluded position, the property enjoys an extraordinary sense of tranquillity, where the only sounds are a chorus of birdsong, the gentle rush of a nearby stream and the soothing babble of a brook. The surrounding landscape is equally captivating, with the Black Mountains creating a spectacular backdrop to this unique rural retreat.
New mains water and electricity have been connected, providing an excellent foundation for the approved redevelopment.
Rarely does an opportunity arise to acquire such a remarkable project, combining planning permission, outstanding natural surroundings and breathtaking countryside views, all within a peaceful and unspoilt corner of the Herefordshire countryside.
Location
The nearby village of Longtown lies within the beautiful Olchon Valley, often regarded as one of Herefordshire's best-kept secrets. Surrounded by the dramatic Black Mountains of South Wales, this unspoilt valley is renowned for its breathtaking scenery, abundant wildlife and exceptional walking routes.
Despite its peaceful rural setting, Longtown is a thriving village with an excellent range of amenities, including a family-run country inn, an award-winning village shop and post office, a village hall, an art studio and a primary school rated 'Good' by Ofsted. The village is also home to the impressive 12th-century Longtown Castle, a striking historic landmark that can be seen from Brook Farm.
A picturesque walk leads directly from the property into the heart of the village, while the renowned Offa's Dyke Path, the 177-mile National Trail tracing the English-Welsh border through some of Britain's most spectacular landscapes, passes close by, offering exceptional opportunities for walking and exploring the surrounding countryside.
For a wider range of amenities, the popular market towns of Hay-on-Wye and Abergavenny are both within easy reach, while the cathedral city of Hereford provides an extensive selection of shopping, leisure and educational facilities.
