The small hamlet of Priors Frome is set amongst some Herefordshire most beautiful countryside offering some of the most stunning westerly directional views towards the black mountains. Nearby is the village of Mordiford which offers a primary school, church and a local village pub.
Its location is nestled between Hereford City being only roughly six miles away, and approximately nine miles to the beautiful market town of Ledbury and with Ross on Wye’s catchment to the M50, this hamlet would suitably be desirable for those who want the essence of countryside but wish to commute.

Outside there are substantial gardens and grounds extending to something approaching 1.5 acres, a large workshop, summer house, plus separate studio annex. The property does require some completion touches to finalise some unfinished projects, but is ideal for any purchaser who wishes to make their own mark on what is a very substantial rural property.
