THIS property is a beautiful, well-presented and substantial 12-room Victorian detached town house with a large cellar.

Built in 1886, it was bought by the present owners in early 2011 who decided that after 70 years of neglect that the property was worth a full and comprehensive, top-to-bottom refurbishment top to bottom. and Although the essential Victorian character has been carefully kept, they have brought this home into the 21st century with the following well-planned thought-out and forward thinking future proof additions, using high-end natural materials where possible:

All internal and external work, from a new roof and aluminium guttering down to new drainage around the house, has been completed to a meticulously high standard.

Three new luxurious bathrooms, and a high-end fitted kitchen, lantern and bi-folding doors, along with complete internal and external repair, professional interior design decoration and a re-landscaped private walled patio and back garden with off-road parking at front, completes the picture of this outstanding property. Further improvements include a hotel-level plumbing scheme with Worcester Bosch Boiler, Cat eight internal wiring, central music and radio distribution, underfloor heating in the living areas, Pharos suspended log-burning stove, and original, fully-renovated, sash windows with Sanderson wooden shutters to most of the large Victorian windows.

The house is centrally placed in a beautiful and accessible part of the city in close walking distance to Castle Green and the playing fields beyond, as well as a swimming pool and leisure centre, farmland and open countryside.

Castlefields is two minutes' walk to Hereford Cathedral and the Cathedral School, five minutes' walk to High Town, and 10 minutes' walk to the main railway station with transport links to Cardiff, Birmingham and London.
