Tranquil Golden Valley home with annex, studio and over two acres.
Five-bedroom barn conversion with vaulted living spaces
Breese Barns is a substantial five-bedroom barn conversion set in about 2.23 acres in Dorstone’s Golden Valley. The main house offers vaulted reception space, a large kitchen/dining hub, a first-floor sitting room with floor-to-ceiling glazing, and a generous principal suite; light-filled rooms and exposed stone walls retain character while providing comfortable family living. A separate two-bedroom annex with vaulted ceiling and glazed gable end sits across the drive, offering immediate guest or rental use. A detached studio with bifold doors overlooks the valley and is currently used as a gym/seating area.
The plot is a major asset: formal gardens, an orchard, fruit trees, a courtyard with an ornamental pond, and wild margins leading to mature trees. Practical outbuildings include two storerooms and a lockable powered shed, plus ample gravel parking. The house benefits from sustainable systems — ground source heat pump and PV panels — helping running costs and ecological credentials.
Important practical points are stated plainly. The annex runs on LPG and the studio’s LPG system is redundant; mains services are present but the drainage is private. Stone walls are as-built sandstone/limestone and are assumed to lack cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for any thermal upgrades. Services, heating installations and meters have not been tested and an independent survey is recommended. Council tax is higher than average (main house Band F).
This property will suit a family seeking space and countryside living with scope for flexible use — multi-generational living, a home business, or letting the cottage. The setting close to Hay-on-Wye, local schools and long rural walks from the door adds lifestyle value, while the grounds and outbuildings give scope for gardening, hobbies or continuing small-scale holiday letting.
