Description

This detached four-bedroom farmhouse, situated on an expansive 3.80-acre plot, presents a compelling investment opportunity for those looking to create their ideal rural retreat. The property features traditional brick construction beneath a timber and pantile roof, complemented by a picturesque moat that borders the North and South boundaries. Internally, while the farmhouse boasts UPVC double-glazed windows and central heating via an oil-fired system, it requires modernisation to meet contemporary living standards. Key updates include the septic tank drainage system, which is due for compliance upgrades in line with recent environmental regulations. The exterior hosts mature gardens primarily laid to lawn, offering ample space for landscaping or outdoor enhancements. Located just off Park Road with convenient access to two garages, this property also comes with the potential for planning permissions for non-agricultural development—an opportunity enhanced by its overage clause stipulating a portion of any value uplift from such future developments. Given its current EPC rating of E, there’s significant scope to improve energy efficiency while tailoring the living space to your preferences.
