DOMINGTON House is a fine Grade II listed country home, former Georgian Vicarage rebuilt in 1764, which has featured on the front covers of publications such as Country Life and The Perfect Country House and now for sale for the first time in 45 years.

Nestled next to the village church this former vicarage proudly stands back in its sweeping drive and set in delightful mainly walled gardens extending in all to about an acre.

The accommodation shows much character being arranged over three floors with cellarage and provides five bedrooms, three reception rooms along with a kitchen/breakfast and utilities.

Adjacent to the house is a self-contained one bedroom flat over the garage.

The property is approached from the roadway over a gravel driveway which leads to the garage/coach house flat. The front gardens are laid to extensive lawns with attractive flower and feature borders.

There is a large productive vegetable plot and greenhouse. To the rear of Dormington House there are extensive lawns with herbaceous borders, the rear garden is enclosed within stone walls. To the far end of the garden is the wild meadow/orchard which has an abundance of fruit trees comprising apple, pear, damson and plum and several large specimen trees of oak, tulip, walnut, sycamore and hawthorn.

Situated just five miles east of Hereford and strategically well placed for other centres such as Bromyard, Worcester, Malvern, Ross-on-Wye and in particular Ledbury and its motorway links via the M50/A40. The nearby villages of Bartestree and Fownhope have village shops and Mordiford and Fownhope have public houses and schools. There are many delightful local walks.
