Summary - Ley Court, Ley Lane, Minsterworth GL2 8JU
Seven bedrooms across three floors, large individual rooms and period features
A handsome 17th‑century farmhouse set over three floors, this substantial seven‑bedroom property offers rare space and period character in a peaceful countryside setting. With two kitchens, two reception rooms and large bedrooms, the house suits a family seeking generous accommodation or a developer looking for an eye‑catching renovation project.
The plot extends to just over half an acre with stone outbuildings, gravelled parking and paddocks; additional adjoining land may be purchased separately to extend grazing or development potential. Large rooms and high ceilings present scope to reconfigure and create modern living while retaining original features.
Practical realities are clear: the house requires significant renovation. Heating is by an oil boiler and radiators, mains water and electricity are connected, and drainage is by a septic tank. The solid brick walls appear uninsulated, the EPC rating is E and broadband is very slow — important considerations for modern living. There is a medium flood risk and council tax is in Band E.
This is a strong proposition for someone wanting a sympathetic refurbishment, a smallholding revival or a countryside investment. Buyers should budget for comprehensive upgrade works (insulation, services, heating, possible structural or drainage improvements) and carry out their own surveys and flood checks before purchase.
