Many original details of this historic property have been lovingly retained, whilst updating works have been carried out throughout the years to create a characterful yet spacious family home at the heart of the City. Herefords iconic Cathedral looms across the front aspect and is viewable from several points in the home from large windows that take full advantage. A stunning solid wood spiral staircase connects all four floors together harmoniously, including the original barrel vaulted cellar.
Hereford Cathedral has existed on the site of the present building since the 8th century or earlier and is Grade I listed. Substantial parts of the building date from both the Norman and the Gothic periods. The property enjoys doorstep access to the wide range of amenities Hereford has offer, including recently built shopping village with multiplex cinema, award-winning independent food eateries and more.

What Other Related Technologies Does PropertyHeads Use, and Why?
Tracking Pixels: Our advertising partners may use tracking pixels or similar technology to measure the success of the sponsored posts or other advertising products they use. A “tracking pixel” (also sometimes called web beacon, or clear GIF) is a tiny piece of code, invisible to the user, placed on a webpage or in an email and used in combination with a cookie, to link a given activity or impression back to the user; the advertiser includes it in its content so it can measure whether our members interact with that content (for example, by clicking to view an offer). We may set our own tracking pixel on an advertiser’s website so we can measure whether our members found the advertiser’s content effective or interesting, by tracking whether the sponsored post prompted members to take advantage of the advertised offer. This information helps us assess whether sponsored posts and other advertising offers are relevant and interesting to our members and successful for the advertiser.
