This unique opportunity encompasses a sizeable residential arable farm located on the edges of Leaden Roding, Essex, featuring a total of approximately 120.19 acres (48.64 hectares). The centerpiece is Crippings Farmhouse, a Grade II Listed property that boasts architectural charm from the 17th and early 19th centuries. With its four bedrooms and significant period features, this characterful home presents substantial potential for renovation and modernization. While the grounds offer established gardens framed by mature trees, the farmhouse requires comprehensive updating throughout, making it an ideal project for those looking to invest in restoring a historic property while enhancing its functionality and energy efficiency.
Additionally, the traditional farm buildings surrounding the farmhouse also hold promise for redevelopment into alternative uses or residential transformation, pending requisite planning consents.
Ransomes House, another dwelling on the estate, sits secluded amidst gardens with arable land nearby. This property is currently unoccupied and offers considerable scope for either refurbishment or replacement with a larger structure. Lastly, the extensive farmland classified as Grade 2 provides both agricultural productivity and long-term investment potential as it can support high-yield crops.
In summary, this estate not only offers a historic residence but also multiple avenues for expansion and value addition through thoughtful renovations.
