AN HISTORIC farmhouse with an ultra-modern twist is on the market in Herefordshire for only the third time in over 100 years.
Nestling in its own beautiful small valley within some 16 acres is exquisite small equestrian estate Red Rail Farm, set close to the River Wye and the riverside village of Hoarwithy.

Since their purchase in 1994 the vendors have invested a great deal of time, effort and not a little expense in creating the extraordinary home we have today, marketing agents Fine & Country said.

There are quality touches everywhere adding the best of modern architecture yet nothing detracts from the character of the old retained buildings. There are innumerable features, but the heart of the home is an amazing, partially underground, living/family/kitchen.

Equestrians could ask for little more in terms of land and facilities, with stables, large barn, and all weather school, and excellent riding on the surrounding lanes. The outbuildings also offer huge scope, for example the letting rooms could be expanded into the stables (Subject to consent).

Although private and rural, the property is easily accessible. Ross on Wye and the M50 are less than 5 miles, the river is nearby and there are many delightful walks nearby, as there are several well regarded Inns.
The property has excellent eco credentials with ground source heating and solar panels (with valuable feeder tariff) and LED lighting throughout. The property is very economical to run and, together with the three car chargers has a low carbon footprint.
