WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

78out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £575,000, this Grade II listed former farmhouse is priced at £251/sqf, well below the local average of £329/sqf—a strong opportunity to acquire a substantial period home at a comparatively low entry price. Its stone elevations, exposed beams, mullioned windows and fireplaces give the refurbishment a distinctive character to work with, while the four-bedroom layout, gated driveway and large established garden add to its appeal.

The photographed interiors are usable but dated across several rooms, making this a medium-scale project to refresh and modernise. The unfinished attic offers further potential, subject to listed-building requirements and other necessary consents. The exterior and roof look intact in the available views, though a visual inspection cannot confirm their condition.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated interiors while retaining and showcasing the exposed beams, period fireplaces and stone details.
  • Improve the established garden and make better use of its paths, mature planting and stone outbuilding.
  • Explore the unfinished attic's potential, subject to feasibility checks and the requirements of the listed status.
