As someone with an architectural background, I could see the potential immediately: the scale, the symmetry, the light, and those wonderfully tall ceilings that my 6’6” husband fell in love with on the spot.It was clear the house had been neglected, but the bones were magnificent – it simply needed careful, sympathetic restoration to reveal what had always been there. Over the years, we have completely renovated the property from top to bottom, restoring original shutters, window boxes, and period detailing, while introducing modern comforts that make it an exceptional family home. The layout now works beautifully, with the main house flowing into distinct, private areas: a guest suite, a separate master level, and a transformed children’s wing that now feels like its own bright, open living space rather than a series of dormitory rooms.We’ve also added thoughtful practicalities such as a powder room, butler’s pantry, and scullery. At the heart of the home is the stunning kitchen, complete with a huge island and even a champagne sink – designed for entertaining on any scale. And entertain we have: from marquee garden parties for 100 guests, to village gatherings, christenings, and unforgettable birthdays, including a Swan Lake performance in the drawing room beside our baby grand piano. Outside, the gardens are truly special – established with rare and colourful specimens, with hidden pathways, quiet corners, and an orchard of plum, pear and apple trees, plus a magnificent walnut. Two generous driveways provide ample parking, and the terrace offers a front-row seat to the spectacle of parachutists - drifting down from the nearby army base Stirling Lines.Kenchester itself is a rare joy: a friendly hamlet centred around the church, with neighbours taking turns to host drinks and dinners, and a wonderful new French restaurant nearby. With a school bus collecting children for Hereford Cathedral School and superfast broadband throughout, The Residence offers historic charm, modern ease, and an extraordinary sense of community.
