TEDSTONE Court is a substantial grade II listed house dating back to the early 19th century and offers well proportioned accommodation in an unrivalled position.
Steeped in history and with a church dating back to the Saxon times, the property and area are both of architectural and historical importance. The house is in
extremely good order having been refurbished and maintained to a very high standard. The whole property is immaculately presented albeit retaining the character features and sense of history.
The property benefits from extensive accommodation in the main house, annexe and three separate cottages. The main house comprises five reception rooms, seven bedrooms, four bathrooms and the self-contained two bedroom annexe. The main house also has extensive cellars and a triple garage.
The three separate cottages comprise Gracefields, which has four bedrooms, the Lodge, which has two bedrooms and the single bedroom Gardeners Cottage.
The house can be accessed from one of two driveways through impressive entrance gates terminating either to the rear or the formal front of the house although both are linked by a spur. The gardens surround the house to the south and east whilst the large walled garden is to the west. There is a further sunken walled garden containing the tennis court. From the front of the house stone steps lead down to a lower tier with the lake surrounded by formal lawned areas, beautiful herbaceous borders and walkways with strategic seating areas. Parkland wraps around the property below the lake and the gardens are complemented by the astonishingly distant 180 degree views out over Herefordshire, Worcestershire and beyond to the Cotswolds.
There are four stables with hard standing and a four bay workshop with yard plus the benefit of an existing planning permission for further equestrian buildings which would enable the owner to create an equestrian facility of the very highest order if required.
The land extends to approximately 192.2 acres of arable, pasture and woodland. The land falls away from the house down the valley and offers some of the prettiest landscape anywhere in the region. At the bottom of the valley runs the Sapey brook and there are other pools and small lakes for fishing. The estate could offer a small shoot of the very highest quality if required.
