Approximately 87.91 Acres (35.57Ha) of Orchards, Yard and a small parcel of Woodland, Well-Established Agricultural Area, North Herefordshire, Good Transport Links, Well-Drained, Mains Water and Electricity Available at Roadside, Other Lots Available
Situation: Broxwood Court is situated in a secluded and peaceful location in beautiful countryside in a thriving, well established agricultural area with a good road network for access around the village of Broxwood. It is well serviced with day to day facilities in the sought-after villages of Weobley and Pembridge both famous for being part of The Black and White Village Trail.
Additional amenities can be found in the market towns of Kington and Leominster with further opportunities in Hay-on-Wye and Ludlow. The Cathedral City of Hereford, just 16 miles to the south east provides good recreational facilities which include a leisure centre, restaurants, shopping and a theatre.
There are outstanding state and independent schools in the area including Moor Park, Lucton School and Hereford Cathedral School.
Several Golf Clubs are within easy reach including Wormesley and Leominster, plus National Hunt racing at both Hereford and Ludlow.
The A49 is close by and provides good road links to the national motorway network. Birmingham and the West Midlands are an approximate one-hour commute by train with many other convenient rail links from Hereford including services into London Paddington. Regional International airports are at Bristol, Cardiff,
Birmingham and Manchester.
This particularly beautiful part of Herefordshire comprises wooded rolling farmland with the Wye Valley to the west and the beautiful Black Mountains in the distance. The area offers a special rural quality of life whilst having a diverse selection of events and opportunities in the vicinity including the literary festival at Hay-on-
Wye, the theatre at Malvern and the gourmet centre of Ludlow, all within easy reach.
The Estate has been owned by the current
family since 1667. However it was in the late
1850s Richard Snead-Cox, a substantial landowner in Herefordshire and Oxford,
commissioned a new house, Broxwood Court, and employed W A Nesfield to design its gardens and park (now a Grade II Listed Park and Garden) with many of the features planned by Nesfield still prominent in the gardens and parkland today.
Richard Snead-Cox commissioned C F Hansom to build a large house in the Gothic style. Hansom, however, died with only stables and a service range completed. In 1891 Leonard Stokes, who undertook many commissions for Roman Catholic clients, was called in to erect a Tudor-style mansion, aligned on an avenue of trees planted by Nesfield. That house was demolished in 1955
and replaced by a smaller house on the same
site, also in the Tudor style. The stables and
service court were left standing, and in the 1990s converted to residential and office use when the main house was also modernised. A stone portico was added to the western elevation at the turn of the century.
The Court, which is unlisted, has remained in
the same family ownership since the 1850s
and this is the first time that it has been
offered for sale since built.
