This Grade II listed farmhouse presents a noteworthy opportunity for renovation and investment, set on an expansive plot of just over one acre. Built in 1780, the property features a striking brick façade complemented by a pantile roof, exuding classic charm while offering ample potential for modern enhancements.
The main residence is characterized by an inviting central hallway leading to a spacious sitting and dining room. Here, large sash windows frame southern views of the surrounding garden, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. The period details, including picture rails and an open fireplace, add to the historical appeal. Across the hall lies a snug area with another fireplace, making it a cozy retreat. The kitchen/family room has been thoughtfully designed to cater to contemporary living needs, showcasing fitted cabinets and an island unit topped with granite. With features like an Aga range cooker and exposed beams, this space balances traditional aesthetics with modern functionality.
On the first floor, there are four generously sized double bedrooms. The principal bedroom includes an en suite bathroom while a family bathroom services the other three rooms. A versatile games room or optional fifth bedroom is located on the second floor, providing additional living space that can adapt to various needs.
The surrounding gardens are well-established with neat lawns, mature trees, and flowering borders. Features such as garden buildings, patios, and a pond enhance the landscape's charm while attracting local wildlife thanks to a copse of trees at one end of the grounds.
Accessed via a private driveway, there’s sufficient parking alongside brick outbuildings that present conversion potential into annexes or home offices (subject to necessary planning approvals). Additionally, a steel-framed agricultural barn at the top of the drive offers further possibilities for repurposing into a separate dwelling.
