Situation

Hill Field enjoys an enviable rural location, secluded off a quiet country lane and surrounded by beautiful Herefordshire countryside. The property lies within the parish of Putley; conveniently just 4.5 miles from the thriving market town of Ledbury. Many of the surrounding villages form part of the “Woolhope Dome” which preserves and enhances the high-value landscape of the surrounding countryside, characterised by orchards and traditional farms. This area offers a sought-after rural quality of life combined with excellent links, both locally and to the rest of the country.

Hill Field

Thought to have been built in around 1820, Hill Field displays many of the wonderful traits of buildings from this period including square rooms with high ceilings, some tiled floors and large windows helping create a light and airy feel which also bring in the views over the gardens and the countryside beyond.
This beautiful family home offers and tiled floor entrance hallway with plenty of space for coats, boots and plants with a door giving access to the kitchen at one end, and the original entrance hallway at the other.

Hill Field (continued)

The double aspect kitchen has an original quarry tiled floor and a range of units under a granite work top surface. There is an oil-fired Aga and a separate electric oven for when this is turned off in the summer months. The kitchen has room for a table and chairs and plenty of space for a fridge freezer.
Off the back of the kitchen, a hallway give access to a good-sized utility room, a fantastic pantry with slate shelf and a W.C, and to the other side of the kitchen, is a formal dining room with an original quarry tiled floor.

Hill Field (continued)

There are four reception rooms on the ground floor, a wonderful snug with stripped wooden flooring, a period fireplace with a decorative surround and a small wood-burner. There is a sitting room, a lovely light, double aspect room with views over the gardens and a fireplace with a wood-burner, and a door at the rear to the garden room, again with its own wood-burner and patio doors out to the garden.
The ground floor accommodation is completed with the original entrance hallway, a turned staircase leading to the first floor and underneath the stairs, a door leading down to the cellar which is a useful additional storage space.

Hill Field (continued)

On the first floor, off the landing, is a great little office/study with a view over the gardens and to the landscape beyond.
The main bedroom is a light and airy room and benefits from its own en-suite bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe. There is also a family bathroom with a bath and a shower cubicle and an additional, separate W.C.
As well as the main bedroom there are four other bedrooms, three double rooms and one single. They are characterful rooms, some offering built in storage, sinks, some exposed timbers and beautiful views.

The Outside

There is a versatile range of original period buildings which are in remarkable condition and offer scope for a number of uses. There is a large garage/workshop with stairs to a useful storage loft over the top. The ground floor space would easily fit a couple of cars or provide workshop space, part of this is currently used to make wine with grapes from the property’s own vineyard.
Adjoined to the side of the garage is the period stable block with 3 stables, the original tiled floor, feed troughs and hay mangers still in situ. A door at one end gives access to the former grooms/tack room and a door from here into the former cart shed (potential additional garage). A useful lean-to addition has been added to the end of building giving plenty of dry storage for logs.

The Outside (continued)

The gardens are a particular feature of the property and have been loving created by the current owners. There are some lovely terrace and seating areas, a vegetable garden with raised beds, fruit cage, small orchard (from which every other year they make over 125 bottles of their own apple juice), formal borders and a large lawn. All interspersed with mature trees and shrubs.
Their vineyard is planted with 41 productive vines, a mixture of Phoenix and Siegerrebe. Depending on the year, the vineyard is capable of producing up to around 95 bottles of white wine a year.

The Outside (continued)

Hill Field also owns the gently sloping paddock which extends to almost 5 acres and contains a large wildlife pond at the bottom. This has been left intentionally wild but could be opened up if required. The pond is naturally fed via run-off but holds water all year.
The property has been well maintained and cared for by the current owners and although a new owner may wish to update some elements internally, the work would be decorative rather than structural. Hill Field occupies a fantastic, quiet and private position with some lovely views but is easily accessible to the main road and rail networks.
