THIS superbly appointed detached house is situated in an excellent corner position opposite St Mary's Church close to the centre of Burghill, a quiet unspoilt village which lies just under two miles from the northern outskirts of Hereford.

Corner House is grade II listed and has really spacious accommodation with many period features providing a home of exceptional character and charm. Amenities available close by and in the neighbouring village of Tillington include village stores, church, inn, primary school, bus service and the renowned Burghill Valley Golf Club. More extensive shopping, schooling and recreational facilities are available in Hereford which is a short motoring distance away.

This fine residence dates from the early 19th century and is built of local stone and brick with some half-timbered and boarded elevations under a slate roof. The property has been modernised and updated to an exceptionally high standard with quality fittings throughout. An original barn adjoining the rear of the main house was adapted some years ago to provide a 26ft (7.92m) sitting room with large stone cider press feature and also incorporates a separate first floor annexe above, ideal for an elderly relative or for letting to provide rental income.

The accommodation which, has the benefit of gas fired central heating, double-glazed windows and fitted carpets has four reception rooms including sitting room, dining room, breakfast room and the cider press sitting room, five/six bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms. The annexe rooms could easily be incorporated within the accommodation of the main house, if preferred.

The outbuildings comprise three garages, plus a garden store/workshop. The house is approached through a five-bar gate opening onto a wide pavier courtyard providing ample parking space for several vehicles and access to the outbuildings. Beyond the courtyard there is a pergola with adjoining lawn and large raised vegetable/fruit bed. To the side of the courtyard there is a low-rise two-tier paved patio providing access to the house. The main garden lies to the front of the house and is accessed via pedestrian gates from the courtyard and the village road which flanks the property. The garden is contained mainly within brick walls and includes a large shaped lawn with extensive flowerbeds and borders stocked with a colourful array of flowering shrubs and bushes including Mahonia Japonica, Choisya, Pyracantha, shaped Cupressus and variegated Laurel.
