A charming and historic family house with spectacular views
Bollingham House occupies an historic site as evidenced by an early castle mound on the motte and bailey at the rear. The property set in 3.33 acres, faces due south commanding panoramic views over the Wye Valley to the Black Mountains
The house is well proportioned with light elegant rooms, many with magnificent views across the Wye Valley. A reception hall leads to the drawing room and sitting room, both having open fireplaces with marble surround. A side hall serves a study and a cloakroom. The inner hall gives access to a cellar with wine store and the scullery or utility room. The dining room is east facing and has an inglenook style fireplace with inset woodburner. An attractive living/kitchen with boarded oak floor, central island unit and an AGA, has arguably the best view in the house.
The first floor is approached by an elegant Georgian elm staircase which serves five bedrooms and four bathrooms.
A superb 14th Century part-timberd Barn ideal for entertaining. An "Ostlers House" annexe of 2 bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen. Garaging, kennels and storage, two loose boxes and a coach house media/office room.
The gardens compliment Bollingham beautifully.
