Description

This historically significant Grade II Listed detached farmhouse, accompanied by a one-bedroom cottage, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Situated in the picturesque Snelston Common area within 4.02 acres of stunning Derbyshire countryside, this property is conveniently located near Ashbourne with quick access to major roadways like the A50, M1, and M6. The farmhouse features an impressive internal area of 2,750 sq.ft., offering spacious living quarters rich with character, including expansive gardens and various outbuildings such as a double garage. The interior includes original elements like beamed ceilings and an exposed well that could be enhanced further. The kitchen is functional but could benefit from modern updates to maximize its potential for both everyday living and entertaining. The drawing room boasts ample space but may require aesthetic updates to meet contemporary preferences. Barleycote Cottage provides versatile living options or potential rental income subject to obtaining the necessary permissions. Its current layout allows for immediate occupation while also needing modernization in certain areas like the bathroom. Outside, the extensive grounds include various storage buildings and a charming summer house overlooking the paddock, with abundant scope for landscaping improvements or agricultural use. Overall, while the property showcases many appealing characteristics already, strategic renovations could significantly elevate its market value and functionality.
