Description

Originally commissioned by Sir James Rankin, an international shipping and trade magnate who inherited the Bryngwyn Estate. In 1868 he had built himself in the words of the time “a magnificent mansion delightfully situated and commanding one of the most extensive views in Herefordshire and perhaps one of the finest landscapes in England”. It was here, Sir James brought up his family and became one of Hereford's largest private benefactors.

During the war, the army was stationed at Bryngwyn. Indeed Italian prisoners of war were housed there and worked on nearby farms and in the construction of the church at Hoarwithy.

It is Grade ll listed and in recent years has been extensively and painstakingly restored, retaining its fabulous original features including many marble columns, wooden doors and floors, stone archways, stained glass windows and gargoyles and now provides luxury apartment living to the central section with the east and west wings providing separate family homes with large private gardens.

The basement apartment offers a rare opportunity to purchase a beautifully appointed two bedroom apartment. Ideal as a lock and leave or investment opportunity, Airbnb/rental unit.
