Located on the outskirts of Shippon village, this Grade II listed detached farmhouse offers a unique redevelopment opportunity with its rich historical significance and substantial land area. Originally a working farm, the property features a blend of architectural styles dating back to the 16th century and has most recently served as part of The Manor Preparatory School campus. The interior retains many original elements such as a grand stone inglenook fireplace, tiled flooring, exposed beams, and cast iron fireplaces upstairs. However, it is in need of extensive refurbishment, providing an exceptional opportunity to tailor the space for various uses.
The current layout encompasses multiple living areas, including a kitchen, dining room, sitting room, pantry, and seven bedrooms along with a bathroom on the upper floor. The adjoining two-bedroom annexe presents the possibility for independent living or could be reintegrated into the main residence.
A large plot surrounds Church Farm, incorporating gardens, outbuildings, and grassland. The diverse outbuildings include open-sided barns and storage facilities that offer substantial conversion potential pending necessary approvals. Ample parking is available as well.
The mature gardens are currently overgrown but hold promise for landscaping enthusiasts looking to create vibrant outdoor spaces. This property not only benefits from proximity to local amenities in Abingdon but also enjoys excellent transport links to Oxford and beyond. This makes it an outstanding prospect for investors or developers looking for a significant project with potential for high returns.
