Very slow broadband and high Council Tax band G (ongoing cost)
Set in a tranquil valley between Grosmont and Skenfrith, this substantial detached farmhouse occupies approximately 1.77 acres and enjoys wide countryside views. The stone-built period property retains character features such as exposed stonework, a stone fireplace with wood-burning stove and generous room proportions, and is offered chain free — ideal for buyers wanting a countryside lifestyle and scope to add value.
The house currently provides four double bedrooms on the first floor, a bathroom and two vaulted rooms on the second floor that could be converted into further bedrooms. Ground-floor accommodation includes two reception rooms, a kitchen with a solid-fuel Rayburn, a large pantry, prep/utility room and a boot/entrance room. uPVC double glazing has been installed and there is off-street parking to the rear.
The property requires renovation throughout: improvements are needed to modernise services, internal finishes and insulation (external stone walls are assumed uninsulated). Heating is via an LPG boiler with radiators, private drainage serves the house, and broadband speeds are very slow. Council Tax is band G, which should be factored into ongoing costs.
For families and rural-living buyers the location is a strong draw — scenic walking country, local pubs and eateries, and primary schools within a few miles. There is potential to create additional parking to the side, subject to planning. Buyers should note appliances and services have not been tested and should arrange their own surveys and utility checks before committing.
