Brynsifiog Farm, Fynnon Gynydd, Herefordshire. HR3 5NB

Brynsifiog Farm represents a traditional

livestock farm situated in the Radnorshire countryside. The farm comprises a

substantial six-bedroom rural residence, an impressive range of traditional stone

buildings, a range of modern portal frame agricultural buildings and 132.72 acres of lush pastureland.

The original residence of Brynsifiog is

reputed to be a former Court House for the “Manor of Brynseviok” with its history tracing back to the early 1600’s. This

building was subsequently replaced in 1878. There are also the remains of

another smaller dwelling referred to as the “Old House” which is located in an adjacent field.

Brynsifiog is situated approximately 3

miles north of the quaint village of Glasbury-on-Wye and is only 6 miles from

the famous and popular book town of Hay-on-Wye.

Glasbury is well serviced for a small village and has a Post Office, garage & filling

station and three public houses and restaurants. The major facilities to include

supermarket, range of shops, primary school and farmers’ cooperative can be found in Hay-on-Wye. Secondary

education is provided in the nearby Gwernyfed High School.

Accommodation

Brynsifiog has a beautiful range of traditional stone barns that immediately surround the main residence forming a

central courtyard. Some of the buildings date back to a period older than the

farmhouse which is supported by the engraved stone in the Wainhouse dated 1866. This is a superb building with its

timber gateways, central pillars and stone archways.

The stables that adjoin the farmhouse is another well maintained and handsome

building which is prime for conversion, particularly as it is two storey. All of the

barns have been well maintained and offer a host of character features with their exposed cruck beams.

The modern agricultural buildings have

been appropriately situated away from the main courtyard of the traditional barns and farmhouse and represent an excellent

array of buildings to accommodate the farming enterprise.

Outbuildings

The farmland extends to a considerable 132.72 of pastureland that is south facing having the benefit of sunshine all day. The

land is split into conveniently sized enclosures for the ease of management.

The land is split into two main sections by a tarmacadam roadway that continues only to serve a neighbouring smallholding.

The field boundaries and hedges are in good order and investment continues to be

made on an annual basis.

Whilst the land is currently laid down to

pasture it is easily capable of producing excellent yielding arable and fodder crops.

There are also valuable clusters of native woodlands and water features at various locations on the farm which provide

shelter for livestock and natural habitat for wildlife.

The land surrounds the main farmstead on all sides and provides some of the most terrific and far reaching views towards the

Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons.

The land lies between 200 metres and 300 metres above sea level and comprises a mix of undulating pasture with all

enclosures capable of producing fodder crops.

Brynsifiog has the benefit of a natural

private water supply plus natural tributaries that run though the farm.
