Characterful Victorian farmhouse for full renovation, with outbuildings and far-reaching countryside views.
Elevated Victorian stone farmhouse with outstanding rural views
Little Corras is a characterful unlisted Victorian stone farmhouse set in an elevated rural position with far-reaching views over Herefordshire and the Welsh border. The house retains period features — exposed beams, open fireplaces and Herefordshire flagstone floors — and sits with a lawned garden, orchard and pond. Adjacent stone and timber outbuildings and stables offer useful storage or ancillary/equestrian uses.
The property requires a full refurbishment: there is no central heating, primary heating currently by room heaters and wood logs, walls assumed uninsulated, and systems need upgrading. A private water supply and septic drainage are in place; planning has been granted for a sewerage treatment plant and buyers should budget for connection and service upgrade costs. Flood risk is rated medium and the site lies in a remote hamlet with excellent mobile and fast broadband.
For a buyer seeking a sympathetic restoration or renovation project, Little Corras presents strong appeal: substantial period fabric, cellar space, outbuildings and potential to extend usable accommodation. Separate barns (Lot 2) with Class Q consent are available by negotiation, offering further development potential for someone wanting a larger estate or ancillary income.
Practical points to note: access is via a single-track driveway with a retained agricultural right of way and a shared maintenance contribution if lotted; mains electricity exists but all major service connections may carry significant costs. This home will suit someone prepared for a considerable renovation who values privacy, countryside views and historic character.
