Croydon Old Farm is a substantial period residence set in around two acres with over 5,400 sq ft of adaptable family space. The main house offers generous reception rooms, a recently refitted kitchen/breakfast room, conservatory, study and a principal suite with dressing room and bathroom. A detached annexe provides flexible accommodation for guests, multi-generational living or rental income. Equestrian facilities include a stable block, paddock and ample outbuildings including a double garage and workshop. The location is rural and peaceful, with clear open-field views and good links to Royston, Cambridge and London for commuting.
Practical considerations are set out plainly. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the walls are recorded as cavity construction with no insulation assumed, which may affect running costs and future improvement works. Council Tax is high (Band G). The property has been maintained and recently renovated in parts (kitchen refitted, bathrooms modernised, stables converted), but its age and mixed construction mean buyers should allow budget for ongoing conservation and energy upgrades.
This house will suit a growing or extended family seeking space, character and rural lifestyle — particularly owners who value equestrian or smallholding potential. It also offers clear investment appeal through the annexe and versatile outbuildings. Viewings are recommended for those wanting a character-filled home with scope for sympathetic improvements to energy performance and modern living.
