Description

Boords Farm is a distinguished Grade II listed family residence located in the sought-after village of Batcombe. This historical property retains much of its original charm, featuring classic flagstone floors in the main hallway and multiple period details that could serve as a beautiful backdrop for modern renovations. The inviting country kitchen, with solid wood cabinetry, exposed beams, and an Aga, offers great potential for an update or redesign to enhance functionality while maintaining its character; it opens into a spacious garden room with floor-to-ceiling glazing that merges indoor and outdoor living—a perfect area to reimagine for year-round enjoyment. The sitting room boasts period features including timber beams and a jet master fireplace, yet could benefit from contemporary touches to elevate its warmth and usability. The dining room’s stone flooring and deep bay window create an atmospheric experience ideal for both family meals and entertaining; this space also presents opportunities for modernization without compromising its historic appeal. Upstairs, four generous double bedrooms with picturesque views await your personal touch. The family bathroom provides basic amenities but could be transformed into a luxurious retreat with modern fixtures. The outside space includes well-maintained gardens complemented by extensive grounds featuring a swimming pool and tennis court—these areas can be revitalized or expanded upon according to one's vision. Additionally, there are two stone outbuildings that offer practical storage solutions or could potentially be repurposed. Boords Cottage, the detached studio, adds further versatility as an additional living space or workspace. With ample parking available, future improvements may include adding a garage (subject to planning permission). Having been cherished by one family for many years, this property represents an exceptional investment opportunity with substantial potential for renovation in this scenic part of the South West.
