3 bed detached house for sale

Seabourne House, Sutton St. Nicholas, Hereford HR1

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Grade II listed period home set within approximately 0.8 acres of mature gardens, complemented by a detached brick barn offering exciting development potential (subject to the necessary planning consents). We understand the barn is not included within the listed status of the main house; however, prospective purchasers should verify this with their legal representative. There is also the possibility of acquiring additional adjoining land, available by separate negotiation.

Steeped in character and retaining an abundance of original features, the property offers spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over two principal floors, together with an extensive cellar and second-floor attic rooms presenting exceptional scope for further conversion.

The welcoming reception hall runs through the heart of the house and provides access to the cellar, a feature staircase to the first floor and the principal reception rooms. There are four versatile reception rooms including an elegant sitting room and living room, both with attractive fireplaces and deep curved bay windows, a formal dining room with period fireplace, and a separate study, making the property ideally suited to modern family living or those working from home.

The impressive kitchen/breakfast room is undoubtedly a focal point of the home, featuring a striking vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, a central island, extensive fitted cabinetry and ample space for entertaining. Adjoining the kitchen is a practical utility room and cloakroom.

The cellar extends to approximately 13ft x 30ft, providing excellent storage or further potential, subject to any necessary consents.

On the first floor are three generous double bedrooms, each displaying period charm with original fireplaces, together with a nursery or dressing room and a well-appointed shower room. From the main landing, an inner staircase rises to the second floor where four attic rooms offer outstanding potential to create additional bedrooms or living accommodation, subject to the relevant permissions.

Outside, the property occupies a delightful plot extending to around 0.8 acres, with established gardens to both the front and rear, mature trees, fruit trees, lawns and hedged boundaries providing an excellent degree of privacy. A generous driveway offers ample parking and leads to the substantial detached brick barn with adjoining workshop.

The barn represents one of the property's most compelling features, offering an exciting opportunity for conversion into an additional dwelling, holiday accommodation or ancillary space, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents. The principal barn measures approximately 19m x 4.85m, with an adjoining workshop measuring approximately 4.85m x 4.30m.

Situated within easy walking distance of the village pub, primary school and local amenities, this is an exceptional opportunity to purchase a character home with significant lifestyle and future development potential in one of Herefordshire's most desirable villages.
