Description

This Grade II listed farmhouse, situated just one mile from the coast, represents a unique investment opportunity for those looking to enhance a property rich in character and history. Having been under the same ownership for nearly five decades, this home features a versatile layout currently accommodating multi-generational living arrangements but could easily be transformed back into a single-family residence. The property includes two entrance halls, multiple reception rooms, a main kitchen with breakfast area as well as a secondary kitchen, utility room, boot room, six bedrooms and four bathrooms. Additionally, there is a part-converted detached annexe that comes with planning permission for conversion into an independent dwelling—ideal for rental potential or guest accommodation. Set amidst approximately four acres of private grounds that include gardens, stables, and even a tennis court, this secluded yet accessible location offers possibilities for expansion and outdoor activities. Holworth Farmhouse stands out not only for its size but also for its historical features such as stunning plank-and-muntin construction and an impressive Tudor fireplace. The exterior boasts traditional stonework with mullioned windows and offers views over the beautiful local countryside. It is conveniently located near local villages that provide essential amenities while being close to popular destinations along the Jurassic Coast. Investors will find further potential in the various outbuildings on-site—including barn conversions—and can benefit from the groundwork already established by previous owners. This substantial property with its expansive grounds presents an exciting project for renovation enthusiasts looking to restore or redevelop it according to their vision.
