IF glorious isolation is what you're dreaming of then Warren House in Stansbatch, Herefordshire will be right for you.

The house built in 1768 and recently completely renovated lies at the end of a mile-long gated, tree-lined track in the middle of woodland on Wapley Hill. The only neighbours here are the deer, rabbits, birds and other wildlife that inhabit the land and whatever the season, the location is spectacular, from the moonlight snow to the glorious summer garden and clear starry nights.

But it's only when you see an aerial shot of the house that you realise just how magical this location really is. The house sits amidst its own acre of south facing 'woodland' garden complete with deck, mature trees, shrubbery and mixed borders, two ponds teeming with fish and wildlife, as well as various outbuildings and a polytunnel.

Built against the lower ramparts of the Iron Age Wapley Hill Fort using stone quarried from the fort itself, it was originally the Warrener's House at the centre of a deer park and rabbit warren. The Forestry Commission bought the land in 1927 including Warren House, which became home for the Forestry Commission Carpenter.

It will also appeal to anyone whose looking for an off grid home that still retains all the modern conveniences. The house has a comprehensive off-grid infrastructure including two generators, wind turbine, LPG gas, an Aga, Worcester Bosch boiler (for central heating and hot water system), reed-bed draining and sewerage system, borehole water supply, satellite broadband installation and wifi router.

The sale is by formal tender, with a guide price of £70,000 and a closing date June 10.
