Attractive Country Property, Outskirts of Ludlow, Productive Farmland with Environmental and Heritage Features, 6 Bedrooms, Orchard, Woodlands and Pasture, EPC E

Situation: Poughnhill Farmhouse includes paddocks with river frontage, a block of mature woodland, an orchard and outbuildings, in all around 14 acres (5.67 hectares).

Poughnhill farmhouse blends a traditional and comfortable family home with the opportunities for the new owner to develop their own equestrian or lifestyle property, just outside the market town of Ludlow. A traditional stone under slate farmhouse, with six bedrooms across the first and second floors, providing ample and comfortable accommodation. Offering a wealth of character features and flexible space on the ground floor which could enable a new owner to create a large family kitchen and dining room.

Poughnhill Farmhouse is approached along the private drive, with parking to the front and a shared carport to the side of the property. A small private garden to the front provides a secure outdoor space within the farm for relaxing and outdoor dining. Upon entering the property you arrive in a traditional quarry tiled hall, leading to the two reception rooms and kitchen.

The living room contains a wealth of character, including a feature fireplace (equipped with a log burner) and exposed beams. The dining room is similarly appointed, with a decorative open fireplace and oak flooring. At the rear of the property is a kitchen, with a quarry tiled floor,
leading to the boot room and large store. The ground floor store provides flexible space. Finally, the ground floor also contains a WC and additional rear store, the old salting room. The first floor landing leads to four bedrooms (one en suite) and a family bathroom. The second floor
provides two generous bedrooms, second family bathroom, and access to storage space. The farmhouse is heated via oil fired central heating and we are informed that the property is connected to a mains water supply and a private septic tank. Approximately 4,141sqft (384 sqm)
excluding the carport.

The land lends itself to a variety of uses and management styles, enabling future owners to manage a grass based farming system, a focus on biodiversity or carbon objectives, or a variety of wider personal interests or diversifications such as equestrian uses or sporting potential.

Poughnhill is just south of the popular market town of Ludlow, home to a strong collection of independent businesses as well as key local services and schools. Access to the nearby towns of Shrewsbury, Worcester and Hereford provide additional facilities.
