Description

This Grade II listed country house offers approximately 3,443 sq ft of accommodation, including a self-contained two-bedroom cottage annexe, alongside more than 4,238 sq ft of barns and outbuildings. The main house has up to five bedrooms and retains exposed beams, brick fireplaces and other period details. Its ground floor includes a large kitchen and living area, a separate sitting room, a study area and a full-width garden room overlooking the grounds. Upstairs are two bedrooms, a family bathroom and three interconnecting rooms on the top floor, which could provide further bedroom accommodation subject to layout and suitability. The annexe has its own entrance and includes two bedrooms, a kitchen and living space. Outside, the property occupies a stated 7.07-acre plot with lawns, mature trees, planted borders, a working garden and vegetable plots. A sweeping shingle drive provides parking and access to the house, courtyard and outbuildings. The barns include a Grade II listed structure and open-sided storage buildings; the listing notes possible conversion potential, subject to planning permission. The scale, separate accommodation and range of buildings offer scope for different uses, although any changes to this listed property would require careful investigation.

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a distinctive, substantial Grade II listed country home: the seven-bedroom main house and self-contained annexe sit within 7.07 acres of established gardens, with period beams, brick fireplaces and more than 4,238 sq ft of outbuildings. The interiors look usable but dated across several rooms, offering scope for a light cosmetic refresh while retaining the character. The outbuildings add interest, though any conversion potential is subject to planning and listed-building consent.

On the economics, the asking price is reasonable enough, yet £12,500 of quoted works still lifts all-in spend towards £1,112,500 — roughly 6% above what comparable floor area achieves locally in current condition. The project can still appeal to the right buyer, yet the numbers are not exceptional.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh dated finishes across the usable interiors while preserving the exposed beams, brick fireplaces and other period character.
  • Make the most of the self-contained two-bedroom annexe for guests, multigenerational living or potential rental use.
  • Explore the extensive barns and outbuildings for future use, subject to planning and listed-building consent.

Key risks

  • The asking price is above the local £/sq ft benchmark, and purchase plus refurb costs look tight against local benchmarks.
  • Weathering is visible on some outbuilding roofs, while substantial ivy limits inspection of parts of the main house elevations.
