Spacious rural estate with barn, bungalow and lake near Kirdford.
Grade II listed 17th-century farmhouse with many original period features
A charming Grade II listed farmhouse set in around 6.72 acres of picturesque West Sussex countryside. Costrong Farmhouse retains many period features — exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces, leaded casement windows and original oak doors — and sits within mature gardens that include a heated swimming pool and a large irrigation lake with boathouse.
The estate includes a substantial 7-bay timber-framed Sussex barn, a detached one-bedroom bungalow, garaging and a range of outbuildings giving immediate ancillary accommodation and obvious potential for conversion or diversified uses (subject to consents). The property is well located between Kirdford and Plaistow with local amenities, country walks and good access to Petworth and rail links nearby.
Important practical points: the house is listed which will restrict alterations and will complicate upgrading. The farmhouse currently needs significant modernisation throughout, the broadband speed is very slow and heating is by an LPG boiler. Council tax is high and private drainage is installed. These are factual factors to weigh against the exceptional plot, heritage character and outbuilding opportunities.
For a buyer seeking an historic family home, smallholding or a country retreat with scope to personalise and invest, Costrong offers rare scale and setting. Serious purchasers should budget for sympathetic renovation, listed-building consent processes and service upgrades where required.
