This stunning example of a listed property comes with a wealth of history. This was the former principle residence on the Treburvaugh Estate. The original house is believed to date back to the 1800’s, it was later purchased and enlarged by Mr John Thomas Jackson, a mill owner from Rochdale who became High Sheriff of Radnorshire in 1905. He loved the property so much that he bought it as a grand country home for his family.

This Arts and Crafts style property has been beautifully presented with fabulous embellishments throughout the house. Attention to detail is second to none from the well-proportioned rooms with high ceilings throughout, to the William Morris style.

There are beautiful original features throughout including a Gothic galleried staircase in the main entrance hall, a striking addition as you first enter into the home. To your right of this is the drawing room, with a large floor to ceiling bay window offering fantastic views out over the undulating landscape. The room is centred around a fireplace with woodburning stove in situ, which has a copper hood with the original owner’s initials.

The other side of the hallway is the sitting room, with a large fireplace and window to the frontage. Continuing through the house there are two studies, which look out over the side elevation, but can offer versatility in usage. The large dining room again has an inglenook fireplace housing a multi-fuel stove. Adjacent to this is the kitchen which has been fitted with a good range of wooden base and wall units, and even has the original range built into a fireplace. There is ample room for a large dining table and chairs. A door from here leads to the side courtyard which allows access to the utility/laundry room and several storerooms. Also on this level is a bathroom comprising bath, separate shower, WC, and wash hand basin. A secondary staircase rises from an inner hallway which would have provided access to the servants quarters, there are still features present today from this including service bells in the dining room and various service buttons around the house.

On the first floor there are six double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a separate cloakroom with WC and wash hand basin. All of the bedrooms are of an excellent size and a number of them have feature fireplaces amongst other period features. All of the bedrooms enjoy looking out over different aspects from their large sash windows. Of particular note is bedroom three which contains a freestanding bath.

On the second floor, there are a number of attic rooms which provide plenty of opportunity for further storage. On the lower ground floor there is a large cellar with several divisions.

The Cottage

The Cottage which is currently run as an Airbnb has its own access and offers accommodation comprising of a kitchen, living/dining room and stairs up to the bedroom and ensuite above. There is the option to incorporate further rooms from the main house to increase the space available if required and still remains independent of the house.

Treburvaugh House Farm provides versatile and flexible accommodation for a variety of uses and would suit a large extended family and has excellent scope to provide an income. The cottage is currently being run as a short term let through Airbnb.

The property is approached via a private lane, and up a gravelled drive to a parking area for several cars. Sitting in an elevated position the property enjoys views over its own grounds, with formal gardens to the front. A covered veranda provides a perfect spot to sit and enjoy the vista, over the formal lawn and al fresco dining area leading down to the croquet lawn. The land extends beyond this to ancient woodland with mature trees and meandering paths down to the large pools below.

The grounds of this registered smallholding extend to approximately 9.62 acres of formal gardens, paddocks, and two large pools.

Paths meander down from the croquet lawn through the ancient bluebell woodland, down to the pools and on to the three x fully fenced 1 acre paddocks beyond, which have can also be accessed separately from the lane. There are further fenced paddocks near the house, various outbuildings, garage and six stables with a tack room with hay storage.
