Quiet 4-bed Georgian farmhouse with large garden and parking for several cars.
Grade II listed 18th-century farmhouse with abundant original character
Eakley Manor Farmhouse is an impressive Grade II listed 18th-century detached home set on about a quarter-acre plot with wide rural views. The house offers substantial family accommodation: four double bedrooms, three large reception rooms, a snug, a kitchen/breakfast room and useful cellars, making it well suited for multi-generational living or home working. Off-street parking for several vehicles and mature gardens add privacy and country charm.
The property retains many original features and high ceilings, but also shows areas needing updating — the kitchen appears dated and some internal decor will benefit from improvement. As a listed building there are legal restrictions and likely additional costs for alterations and maintenance; buyers should factor specialist repairs and approval requirements into their plans.
Practical considerations include very slow broadband and a relatively high council tax band. The hamlet location gives quiet rural living yet remains within a reasonable drive of local primary and secondary schools, the M1 (junctions 14 and 15) and the towns of Milton Keynes, Newport Pagnell and Northampton for wider amenities.
This is a spacious, characterful farmhouse for a buyer seeking a historic home with generous gardens and storage, who is prepared for listed-building responsibilities and some modernisation to realise the property’s full potential.
