A beautifully situated and historically rich Welsh longhouse with extensive ancillary accommodation, all set within captivating gardens and grounds of about 11.98 acres.
Upper Harthall Farm is an exceptional and highly adaptable small country estate, thoughtfully renovated to blend period charm with modern comfort. Perfect for multi generational living, equestrian use and income generation, the principal property extends to approximately 11.98 acres, with a further 12.14 acres available through separate negotiation, Lot 2 (around 7.12 acres) and Lot 3 (around 5.02 acres). These consist of high quality pasture ideally suited for horses or livestock, significantly enhancing the property’s agricultural and equestrian versatility.
Upper Harthall Farm offers an unusually flexible arrangement for those seeking a home that can support several generations, visiting family, dependent relatives or those wishing to create income through holiday letting or long term rental. The principal house provides extensive family accommodation, while two fully self contained dwellings; the Cottage and the Annexe; offer independence, privacy and convenience. Their close proximity to the main house allows households to remain connected while still enjoying individual living space.
Approached via a tree lined private driveway, the main house displays an attractive traditional façade that reflects its 17th century origins. Inside, exposed timbers, oak joinery and original architectural details enrich the sense of heritage. The ground floor offers a harmonious blend of formal and informal rooms, including a magnificent drawing room with a large inglenook fireplace and French doors opening onto the parterre, a library/music room and a garden room overlooking the grounds. The farmhouse kitchen forms the heart of the home, featuring a Rayburn, granite work surfaces and a walk in pantry (with lift access to the study above) supported by practical utility areas and wine storage. The kitchen leads onto a welcoming dining hall, a snug and a large study well suited for home working or family use.
Upstairs, the principal suite serves as a luxurious private haven with a vaulted ceiling, balcony, dressing room and a spacious en suite bathroom incorporating a walk in shower and sauna. The next two double bedrooms are served by a large family bathroom with Jacuzzi bath, rain shower, two basins and bidet. The first floor office and a further two additional two guest suites offer excellent flexibility for family and visitors. The top floor features a charming reading room with elevated views across the surrounding countryside.
Cottage and Annexe
The Cottage is a beautifully presented four bedroom detached home of approximately 2,300 sq. ft, offering its own kitchen/family room, sitting room with wood burner, four bedrooms and two bathrooms and private garden. It is ideal for an extended family, as a comfortable independent residence, or as a strong rental/holiday letting opportunity.
The Annexe enjoys open countryside views and provides a first floor ensuite master bedroom, a ground floor bedroom, family bathroom/utility along with a kitchen/dining room and sitting room. It is perfectly suited for multi generational living, guest use, staff accommodation, or rental/holiday letting.
Gardens, Grounds & Land
The gardens surrounding the house are beautifully maintained, with sweeping lawns, mature trees and well placed terraces overlooking a wildlife lake, woodland and fishponds. Close to the house, a heated outdoor swimming pool and a summerhouse, currently used as a gym, provide attractive leisure spaces for family life and entertaining.
Beyond the formal gardens, the land opens into well kept pasture that lends itself naturally to equestrian use. The acreage included with the main property is well suited for creating paddocks or introducing stabling and field shelters, subject to the necessary consents. Mature boundaries and gently undulating ground provide good natural shelter, making the land practical for year round turnout.
Lots 2 and 3, available by separate negotiation, add further high quality pasture, ideal for expanding grazing or developing more structured equestrian facilities. Together, the land offers flexible options for horses or small scale livestock, with ample space to tailor the layout to individual needs.
A secondary gated entrance provides easy access for multiple households, visitors, and larger vehicles, ensuring the grounds work well for everyday living alongside equestrian or agricultural use.
