COLLEY Horn House is an attractive and highly versatile house with extensive gardens and stunning views across the Wye Valley. The property offers up to six bedrooms. The landscaped and terraced gardens extend to one and a half acres and benefit from a hard tennis court with a pavilion and outdoor entertaining area.

The property dates from the early 1900s and includes many features of the period; it has been sympathetically extended and modernised inside and out by local artist and owner, Clare Hearne. The ground floor benefits from polished wooden flooring throughout, including a traditional hallway opening to sitting room with wood burning stove, and to a large open plan family kitchen/living/dining area; the kitchen adjoins a spacious utility area incorporating larder, cloakrooms and laundry as well as a room currently configured as a guest bedroom.

A period staircase rises to the first and second floors from the hallway; the first floor provides three double and one single bedroom (currently used as a study) and a family bathroom, whilst the second floor is dedicated as the master suite. The master suite is both spacious and light, with skylight windows, dressing area and separate shower bathroom. All rooms benefit from elevated and far reaching views across the Wye Valley to Hay Bluff.

Outside the gardens are landscaped, with a sweeping drive rising from the entrance to the house. A hard tennis court is complimented by a timber pavilion and entertaining area. The gardens are sympathetically planted and appointed with a variety of stone artefacts, and a series of stone steps rise to the front of the house, which is terraced and also benefits from a covered 'alfresco' dining area.

The property also benefits from a timber chalet, currently used as a games room and gym, but suitable for use as an office, whilst the whole site has sufficient space to accommodate further outbuildings as may be required and subject to relevant permissions.
