This Grade II Listed farmhouse, steeped in history dating back to the 17th century, presents a remarkable opportunity for those looking to invest in a renovation project. Nestled on the outskirts of an attractive stone village in North Buckinghamshire, the property benefits from scenic views over the village and a peaceful backdrop of surrounding farmland.
While the farmhouse is in need of modernisation, it boasts substantial character and offers spacious family accommodation across three levels. The original stone structure features traditional elements such as a thatched roof alongside more contemporary stone extensions topped with slate. A unique highlight is the attached traditional stone barn, which could be transformed into an impressive kitchen/dining area or converted into a separate annexe for guests or rental purposes.
Upon entering, a pebbled path leads to a welcoming reception hall that flows into the main living spaces. The split-level reception room provides both sitting and dining areas with charming garden views, complemented by working wooden shutters and dual stone fireplaces. The vaulted kitchen/breakfast room at the rear enjoys abundant natural light and includes quality Shaker-style cabinetry with integrated appliances. Adjacent are practical features such as a cloakroom and pantry.
The first floor reveals three well-proportioned double bedrooms, each offering beautiful views of the village. The principal suite includes an en suite bathroom complete with separate shower facilities, while additional bedrooms feature original fireplaces and built-in storage options. The second floor adds two more double bedrooms with eaves storage, perfect for family living or guest accommodation.
The outdoor space enhances the property’s appeal; the front garden is framed by a stone wall and features mature shrubs along winding pathways. A southwest-facing kitchen garden and orchard provide additional potential for horticultural ventures or leisure activities. The main garden area at the rear is secluded and well-maintained, backing onto open farmland, ideal for those seeking privacy and tranquillity.
The courtyard area comprises two traditional stone barns that hold significant redevelopment potential—one attached to the house could serve as self-contained accommodation subject to appropriate permissions. Current uses include garaging, workshop space, and storage.
Located within Ravenstone village, residents can enjoy a rural lifestyle while still being close to amenities found in nearby Olney—a quaint Georgian market town known for its shops and leisure facilities—as well as Milton Keynes which provides broader commercial options including transport links to London Euston within approximately 35 minutes.
This property stands as an excellent investment opportunity not only due to its heritage but also because of its capacity for renovation and expansion within a sought-after location in
