This impressive and immaculate Grade II listed family house sits in a commanding position on high ground on the edge of the much sought-after village of Clifton with far-reaching, uninterrupted views across the Welsh Hills.

Abbots Leigh House was originally built in about 1780 as the Dower House to Leigh Court. The current owners have been refurbishing and renovating the house over a number of years. The result is an immaculately presented, light, bright and spacious family house with superb reception rooms, high ceilings and full-length sash windows of Georgian proportions in all reception rooms. The kitchen has an oil-fired, four-door Aga with a south east facing balcony and access down spiral stairs to a conservatory/garden room. The basement provides useful additional space for a large snooker room, laundry room, a gymnasium and wet room.
Opposite the garage is the coach house; a self-contained two storey cottage.
The gardens and grounds include a rose garden, Venetian water garden, large croquet lawn and pergola occasionally opened to the public through the National Garden Scheme. Beyond the garden are 2 paddocks complimented by 2 stables and a tack room with its own vehicular access.
