Situation and Description
Parsonage Farm occupies an all too rare and highly desirable position, approached by its own long private driveway and surrounded by its own land. It lies on the outskirts of the very popular and thriving village of Eardisley, which offers a good range of local services, including a primary school, village hall, local store and post office, village church, tennis club, and public houses. Further services are available at the market town of Kington (5 miles), at Hereford (15 miles) and at the ever-popular town of Hay on Wye (7 miles), famous for its annual literary festival and as a gateway to the Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons national park.
The property itself has been much improved by the current owners and now offers very comfortable and spacious living accommodation whilst retaining many character features. Ideal for equestrian use, there are an excellent range of stables and supporting barns, with a modern fibre and sand manège, and a number of paddocks and enclosures. The gardens have a delightful outlook to the southwest, with distant views over farmland to the Black Mountains. For those wanting to work from home there is also a very comfortable purpose-built and insulated office and a modern detached garage or workshop which offers scope for a variety of uses.
Initially approached from a small country lane, a long private drive leads down to a courtyard to the front of the house which offers extensive parking and turning space.
A covered porch and oak front door lead into the main reception hall, with flagged floor, window overlooking the courtyard, and doors to a large sitting room which has a triple aspect and glazed doors leading onto a rear sun terrace. The room has plenty of period features including exposed timbering and a stone and brick fireplace with fitted wood burner for those colder evenings and access to a cellar. Also accessed from the main hall, a separate living or dining room has a lovely inglenook fireplace with wood burner as well as built-in cupboards, exposed timbers, and a window to the front. A long rear hallway provides excellent utility space with deep fill sink, fitted cupboards and built-in dishwasher. There is access to a garden room, which is full of light and enjoys a triple aspect, and benefits from glazed doors onto the sun terrace and rear gardens, together with lovely views over farmland to the Black Mountains in the distance.
The main kitchen/ breakfast room has a tiled floor, two oven electric Aga, a range of fitted cupboards, working surfaces, single drainer sink unit and windows overlooking the courtyard that include stables to the front. The ground floor accommodation is supported by a good sized, modern shower room.
On the first floor a generous landing leads to three good sized bedrooms, all with their own individual character, as well as a dressing room with fitted wardrobes and a shower room. The largest bedroom has a vaulted ceiling increasing the feeling of space, whilst the main bedroom has an en suite bathroom, walk in wardrobe, and far-reaching views. Bedroom four is accessed by a separate staircase from the kitchen and again has a vaulted ceiling, window to side and a built-in wardrobe, making it ideal for guests, or for teenager occupation.
Outside
A short distance from the house there are a range of buildings which include a very comfortable home-office, with windows on all sides, electric heating, and internally measures 21' x 10'. There are six purpose-built stables as well as a foaling box, and tack room (all with water and electricity) as well as supporting buildings and a double carport, all accessed from the courtyard. There are a further range of open fronted steel framed barns which provide excellent covered space measuring 60'x 26' and 90' x 30'.
A new garage/workshop (18' x15' x 13.6' x 9'9) has also been built to the side and rear of the house which is L-shaped and has doors to the front, with a dual aspect, a fitted sink unit and space and plumbing for a washing machine.
The gardens are a good size and are laid mainly to lawn with a long herbaceous border and a large sun terrace which makes the most of the delightful south westerly outlook. There is a separate kitchen garden with useful polytunnel and vegetable section, ideal for a keen gardener. The remaining land surrounds the property and provides both privacy and protection, with no public rights of way over any part of the land or drive. The land itself is divided into a number of enclosures and has been used primarily for equestrian use with the addition of a sand and fibre manège 40m x 20m.

Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
