Standing proud, with views towards the Black Mountains, this handsome, converted schoolhouse in the small village of Mansel Lacy will be a hit with those searching for extra space and character within a home: The Old School House has both in spades.

Character is evident throughout the property; traditional features such as stone arched windows, vaulted ceilings, wooden floors, feature stone walls, wood burning stoves and original doors combine with elegant, modern furnishings to make a spectacular family home.

The scale of the rooms, both in terms of size and quantity make this property truly special. The accommodation just keeps going with an impressive high-ceilinged, banquet dinning room, beautiful study, full-size snooker table games room, modern kitchen, snug, conservatory… and the mother of all double-height living rooms: which includes a full length, elevated row of bookshelves, wood burner and glorious views towards the Black Mountains.

On the first floor, the master bedroom suite includes an en suite and an enviably large walk-in dressing room.  Each of the three further double bedrooms have their own character: two with en-suites and one with a picturesque full-height window with views out to your courtyard below.

Attached to the main house, additional ground-floor accommodation extends to a guest wing with its own access and includes an en suite shower room.

Outside: A pretty driveway with ample parking leads up past a large garage and workshop with its own power. The gardens are neatly presented with an extensive lawn area with mature trees and shrubs. The jewel in the crown of the garden is a stunning, covered decking area with ambient lighting, overlooking the fish pond: a perfect spot to enjoy a lazy evening and watch the sun go down. A further lawn to the front of the property, private courtyard and an additional garden building completes the outdoor space.

Area: Mansel Lacy is a small village in the heart of Herefordshire countryside, putting great landscapes and enjoyable rural walks on your doorstep.
