LocationClifford is a popular and well-regarded village situated close to Hay-on-Wye, in an area celebrated for its outstanding natural beauty. The village has its own primary school and lies within the catchment area for the highly regarded Fairfield High School.

Internationally renowned for its annual spring Literary Festival, Hay-on-Wye is a vibrant and popular destination throughout the year, with numerous recreational opportunities on the doorstep. The wider area provides superb opportunities for walking, cycling, riding and exploring the countryside, with the Brecon Beacons National Park (Bannau Brycheiniog) also within easy reach.

The property is entered through an impressive entrance hall with high ceilings, a flagstone floor and original doors leading to the principal reception rooms.
The sitting room and drawing room are both well-proportioned and feature sash windows to the front and wood-burning stoves. The light and airy dining room overlooks the garden and has French windows to the side, together with access to a further entrance.
An opening leads through to the well-equipped kitchen, fitted with a central island, a generous range of wall and base units, worktops, integral dishwasher, gas hob and two side-by-side ovens.
Windows overlook the garden and side, while a door leads to the cobbled courtyard. A useful utility area provides plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer, with a downstairs shower room completing the ground floor.
