Description

This expansive country estate offers a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a substantial property with significant renovation potential. Set within approximately 160 acres of picturesque countryside, this six-bedroom farmhouse embodies the charm of the 19th century, featuring period details and a Georgian architectural style. The property is approached via a long private drive, providing privacy and serenity. The expansive grounds include several outbuildings ripe for redevelopment, including a coach house with planning permission for conversion into a three-bedroom residence, as well as a former grain store that can be transformed into additional living spaces. The main farmhouse boasts spacious living accommodations that can be modernized to suit contemporary tastes. Inside, the ground floor features traditional elements such as an open fireplace in the drawing room and large sash windows throughout that frame breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The kitchen/breakfast room includes an Aga and ample storage but could benefit from modernization. On the first floor, there are multiple bedrooms, some with en suite facilities and stunning views; however, updating the bathrooms and overall decor would enhance their appeal significantly. Expansive gardens and two lakes further increase the property's desirability, making it ideal not just as a home but also as a retreat or holiday let. Given its generous acreage and agricultural classification of much of the land, there is potential for agricultural enterprise or diversification projects. The existing farmland benefits from environmental stewardship schemes until late 2026—an attractive feature for eco-conscious investors. This property presents itself as not just a home but an investment opportunity awaiting your vision for renovation and development.
