Description

This enchanting Grade II listed farmhouse offers a unique opportunity for redevelopment and investment. Currently functioning as an equestrian establishment, the property features a well-preserved four-bedroom home constructed primarily from stone and brick beneath a thatched roof. The grounds encompass approximately 3.9 acres, including various outbuildings with potential for conversion. Notably, the American barn has planning permission under Class Q for conversion into a three-bedroom residence, while the former milking parlour holds lapsed planning permission for two holiday lets—perfect for generating rental income. The property is set in the quaint hamlet of Bagber, just two miles from Sturminster Newton, where essential amenities are readily accessible. Additionally, larger towns like Sherborne and Shaftesbury are within a short drive, enhancing its appeal for future development. Internally, the farmhouse retains character features such as flagstone flooring with underfloor heating in the main living area, an oil-fired Aga in the kitchen, and versatile space suitable for modern family living or renovation projects focused on enhancing comfort and aesthetics. Outside, charming gardens with established trees and paddocks provide ample outdoor space that could be further developed or refined to suit various needs. With existing planning permissions ripe for rejuvenation or alteration, this property presents significant renovation potential in an attractive rural setting.
