Description

This Grade II Listed farmhouse, dating back to the late 18th century with later additions, offers a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a property rich in history. Now on the market for the first time in over seven decades, it is located in a tranquil rural setting between Upton-on-Severn and Malvern, providing stunning views of the Malvern Hills. The property includes a charming timber-framed threshing barn, likely from the 17th century and also Grade II Listed, adding historical value to the estate. Additionally, a converted granary serves as a two-storey annexe with two bedrooms. The grounds encompass approximately 8.61 acres of land featuring grazing fields and a small pond, along with stables and other outbuildings that present further development potential. Notably, there is an extant planning consent allowing for the conversion of both the stables and threshing barn into separate dwellings—a project that can be pursued without starting from scratch as planning permissions are already in place (though Listed Building Consent will be necessary). The main house boasts considerable square footage at 3609 sq. ft., while the granary adds another 1274 sq. ft., creating ample living space with modernization opportunities at hand. Utilities such as mains electricity, gas, water, and sewerage are connected to the property. With its public footpath access and very low flood risk (less than 0.1% chance per year), this property holds significant promise for renovation enthusiasts or investors seeking a unique venture in the West Midlands.
