- Grade II listed farmhouse with attached outbuildings and detached annexe
- Very large plot with mature gardens and Cotswolds views
- Extensive barns and stores offering conversion potential (consents required)
- Requires substantial renovation throughout, empty since January 2025
- Oil-fired boiler heating; secondary glazing but poor wall insulation assumed
- Two access points to parking; first parts of both accesses are shared
- Council tax notably high; listed status may cause additional costs
A rare Grade II farmhouse set on a very large plot with extensive outbuildings and far-reaching Cotswolds views. The principal reception rooms and bedrooms face south over the mature garden, and original features such as exposed timbers, window seats and several fireplaces remain intact. The detached one-bedroom annexe and large double-height barn provide significant scope for ancillary accommodation, home working, or leisure uses (subject to listed-building and planning constraints).
The house has been empty since January 2025 and requires substantial renovation throughout, including updating the 1970s kitchen, services and likely insulation upgrades to the granite walls. Heating is by oil-fired boiler with secondary glazing fitted; the property will need investment to modernise and improve energy performance. The listed status and fabric of the building will mean renovation work is more complex and will require specialist consent and ongoing maintenance.
Practical advantages include huge plot size, off-street parking with two accesses (first parts shared), a garage and former cart barn backing onto a duck pond. Broadband speeds are fast and local schools and amenities are within easy reach; Stratford-upon-Avon is about five miles away. Flood risk is low.
This is a project property suited to a buyer seeking to restore period character and use the plentiful outbuildings creatively. It will particularly appeal to someone looking for a spacious countryside retreat with development potential, who accepts listed-building constraints, renovation costs and higher council tax as part of the purchase.
