A GRAND seven-bed country house in Herefordshire with almost six acres of land and two holiday apartments is for sale with a price tag of £1.45 million.
Agents Sunderlands described it as a "splendid, historical period house" in the village of Hardwicke, near Hay-on-Wye on the border with Powys.
"The Haven is a splendid country house with an interesting history, set in delightful gardens, grounds and paddocks extending to approximately 5.6 acres," agents said on Zoopla.
"Within the grounds there are two holiday apartments providing a very useful income.
"Overall, the main house offers beautifully presented, extensive and versatile accommodation with seven double bedrooms, five of which are en-suite and a magnificent sitting room looking out over the garden."
Entering the home through the front door there is an original period tiled floor and a doorway immediately to the left-hand side which leads into a reception room, currently used as a games room.
"This is a delightful, light and airy room with an open fireplace," agents said.
A central corridor gives access to the downstairs reception rooms, an en-suite bedroom and porch, where there is a toilet and access to the cellars.
The dining room boasts a south-facing window, fireplace and a doorway which connects through to the kitchen.
The kitchen itself has an extensive range of base and wall units with a granite work surface, Rayburn, dishwasher and a sink. There is also a back kitchen with two electric ovens, a fridge, sink and work surfaces.
Next to the back kitchen there is a further side hallway with a door to the outside and a snug reception room.
A staircase in the central hallway leads to the first-floor landing which provides access to six bedrooms, four of which are en-suite, and a family bathroom.
"The main bedroom has its own self-contained suite with beautiful views from the windows, a dressing room with ample hanging rail space and a door leading through to the bathroom where there is a bath, separate shower cubicle and an inset basin with drawer and cupboard storage," agents said.
Away from the main house, there are the "Stargazers Apartments" which are used as holiday lets.
A driveway leads from the main road down through the front garden into an ample parking and turning area with a separate parking area for the holiday apartments.
There is also a garage, with utility area, as well as another outbuilding.
At the back of the main house there is a large terrace area and a former pump house which is now used as leisure space with a small kitchenette, a separate shower room.
"One of the many delightful features of this property is the gardens which are extensive and beautifully planned with a wide range of floral and herbaceous borders and extensive level lawns," agents at Sunderlands added.
"Within the grounds there is also a generous kitchen garden as well as a wide range of soft fruit trees. A point of note is the remains of the original walled garden that once served this enchanting property.
"At the end of the garden there is also a summer house of timber construction offering delightful views back towards the main house.
"To the northeast of the property there are paddocks which extend to approximately 4.15 acres."
