PALACE Farm is just outside Bosbury and occupies a glorious rural position, with far reaching views to the Malvern Hills. Bosbury has a primary school, parish hall with post office and public house.
The oldest part of the farmhouse, a two storey timber framed structure on a sandstone plinth, dates from the 17th century and is grade II listed. Inside there are many period features including beams and large fireplaces. The main reception rooms are full of character, the comfortable kitchen/breakfast room leads through to a study, utility room, rear hall and cloakroom. A galleried landing gives access to the bedrooms on the first floor, all with exposed beams. The master bedroom has a fireplace and ensuite bathroom.
At the front of the house is a large paved 'in and out' driveway and turning area. The garaging and outbuildings are on the north side of the house while there is an attractive water feature and planting on the south side. The garden to the rear includes both a natural and an ornamental pond. There is a large lawn and some raised beds arranged around a terrace.
At the front of the house is the Grade II listed 17th century cider house with attached 18th century cruck framed barn and a cart shed. These have been converted to provide a games room, media room, bar area with kitchenette and a bathroom. The buildings make a superb leisure suite or additional guest accommodation. There is a further garage block, workshop and machinery store and a detached studio.
Beyond the garden and with separate access from the road is approximately eight acres of level, ring-fenced pasture and orchard.
