Location

Brampton Abbotts is an idyllic and tranquil village, situated just one mile from the historic market town of Ross-on-Wye. Surrounded by sweeping views of hills and patchwork fields which extend towards the Welsh Black Mountains, the village enjoys a truly picturesque setting.

At the heart of this welcoming community lies the village hall, a vibrant hub hosting a diverse programme of activities-from fitness classes and yoga sessions to a variety of social gatherings, fundraising events and pop-up pub evenings that bring residents together throughout the year. Adding to the village's charm is a farm shop at Townsend Farm and St Michael and All Angels Church, a beautiful building open daily from dawn until dusk.

A standout feature of Brampton Abbotts is its highly sought-after nursery, Oak House, which has achieved the coveted "Outstanding" rating from Ofsted, further enhancing the village's appeal for families.

The nearby town of Ross-on-Wye offers a wealth of further amenities. This setting is famed as the birthplace of British tourism for its spectacular scenery; the town is perched on red sandstone cliffs that overlook the River Wye. The high street features an assortment of shops, independently owned boutiques, a range of restaurants, welcoming pubs, various leisure facilities, plus a network of countryside and riverside walks.

The Home at a Glance

Barnevelder House is encircled by gardens that envelop the property, creating a wonderful sense of space and privacy. Tucked away behind a gated driveway, the impressive single-storey home occupies a private position, while remaining just a short stroll from the heart of the village.

Built with exceptional attention to detail, the home showcases quality craftsmanship throughout. Solid oak flooring, doors, door frames and skirting boards lend warmth and character, while aluminium-framed, timber-clad windows combine modern performance with a timeless aesthetic.

The front door opens into an elegant reception hall that immediately sets the tone for the accommodation beyond. Designed to create a seamless flow through the home, this welcoming space features a contemporary full-height radiator, ensuring a cosy arrival during the colder months. Elsewhere, underfloor heating provides consistent comfort throughout, with individual thermostats allowing each room to be independently controlled.

Drawing the eye through the hallway is a striking feature wall finished in split-face quartz tiling, its textured surface highlighted by discreet spotlights. This sophisticated design element is echoed in the open-plan living space, creating a cohesive thread throughout the home. Also accessed from the hall is a beautifully appointed cloakroom, finished with limestone flooring from Mandarin Stone and fitted with a WC, pedestal basin and heated towel rail.

Occupying the north wing of the house, the spectacular triple-aspect open-plan living space forms the heart of the home. Flooded with natural light, the vaulted ceiling with exposed solid oak beams enhances the feeling of volume, while a Jøtul log-burning stove, set against a split-face quartz backdrop, creates a striking focal point. Oak flooring flows through the sitting and dining areas, complemented by limestone flooring from Mandarin Stone within the kitchen. Bi-fold doors open directly onto the rear terrace, creating a seamless connection between inside and out while framing beautiful views across the garden, neighbouring farmland and towards the Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons.

The bespoke and high-end Shaker-style kitchen is fitted with granite worktops and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, wine cooler, under-counter freezer and fan oven. A double ceramic sink, space for an American-style fridge freezer and an electric Aga (available by separate negotiation) complete the space.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a practical utility room, fitted with matching Shaker-style cabinetry, a Belfast sink, provision for a washing machine and tumble dryer, the 250-litre hot water cylinder, fuse board, loft access for additional storage, and a glazed door leading to the garden.

The home offers five bedrooms, four of which are generous doubles, providing versatility for family living, guest accommodation or additional reception rooms if desired.

The principal bedroom enjoys full-height windows overlooking the gardens and surrounding countryside. Its luxurious en-suite is finished in marble Mandarin Stone tiling and features a walk-in dual-head shower, double-ended bath, pedestal basin, WC, heated towel rail and illuminated heated mirror.

The remaining bedrooms are served by an equally impressive family bathroom, also finished in marble Mandarin Stone tiling, with a walk-in rainfall shower, slipper bath, pedestal basin, WC, heated towel rail and illuminated mirror.

Outside, the wrap-around gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, enclosed by mature natural hedging that creates a lush green backdrop while preserving privacy from the surrounding farmland. To the rear, a generous patio extends along the length of the house before opening onto a larger entertaining terrace, sheltered beneath a pergola draped with climbing and rambling roses. This wonderfully sheltered space is a true sun trap, making it the perfect setting for long summer evenings. A hot tub, positioned to make the most of the sunny aspect, is available by separate negotiation.

To the front, a smart tiled driveway provides ample parking and turning space for several vehicles.
