Stockbridge Road, Red Rice, Hampshire, SP11

This Grade II listed former farmhouse is a five-bedroom detached period property set in a rural position between Stockbridge and Farleigh School. Understood to date from the early 19th century, it has mainly rendered cob elevations beneath a tall slate roof and is described as requiring complete renovation and refurbishment. Any proposed works would need to take account of its listed status and the relevant consents. The accommodation includes two reception rooms, a kitchen/dining room with an old two-oven Aga but no fitted kitchen, an adjoining kitchen and pantry area, utility room, back hall, workshop and store, office accessed externally, and a wine cellar. Upstairs are five bedrooms, an inner landing or study area and a bathroom. Period features noted in the description include exposed beams, fireplaces, small-pane windows and deep skirtings. The house stands within a mature garden of about three-quarters of an acre, with a south-facing rear area, established trees and a paddock of over two acres. Stockbridge is approximately three miles away, with Andover, its mainline station and the A303 also within reach. The property is marketed by Evans & Partridge in Stockbridge.
