Property description
A detached former farmhouse believed to have been built between 1780 and 1820 and which became Grade II listed in July 1985 offering 4.5 acres of attached paddock and a barn that has planning permission to convert into an annex/studio. Northwood House has undergone extensive research by the current owners and shows architectural features dating back to the 18th century which include strap L hinges, servants bell, the inglenook fireplace and C18 lock to the front door. The village of Northwood Green is located within 10 miles of the City of Gloucester, 12 miles from the smaller market town of Ross on Wye and 17 miles from the Regency Spa town of Cheltenham. Northwood House offers four formal reception rooms, two of which have log burners either inset to a chimney breast or to an inglenook fireplace. The rear sitting room enjoys open views across the garden and paddock and has French doors that lead onto a raised terrace. The four double bedrooms are located over two floors and each one offers a view, either to the front or the rear. The formal gardens have been well tended since the current owners took up residency and offer a vibrancy of colour with a wealth of maturity. The gardens take full advantage of the views and the gardens back directly onto the attached land. The land is only accessible from the grounds surrounding the house and a field shelter has been erected in the paddock and although not currently used for agriculture/equestrian use, we understand that permission would be granted to change into stables/pen. A truly remarkable property with a wealth of researched history, located within a desirable village setting and offering unspoilt 30 mile open views.
