Summary - TROUGH IVY HOUSE, HAY LANE, FARLEY, FARLEY ST10 3BQ
8 bed 6 bath Detached
Large multi-unit detached house with annexe and proven B&B income potential.
8 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms across main house, B&B wing and annexe
Trough Ivy House is an 8-bedroom detached property set on a large plot in a quiet hamlet near Alton. The main house combines character features — exposed beams, parquet floors, cast multi-fuel burner and an Aga — with practical upgrades including solar panels and a recently installed boiler in the utility. The property totals about 3,079 sq ft across multiple storeys and includes a self-contained annexe (Swallows Nest) plus separate B&B accommodation with its own entrance.
This home has an established history as a successful bed & breakfast with many positive online reviews. Layout flexibility is a key strength: retain the B&B business, use the four-bedroom wing for guests or staff, or reconfigure the space for a large single-family residence or multi-generational living. Fast broadband and a large landscaped garden support home working and outdoor family life.
Note the rural setting: the house sits in an agricultural community and benefits from far-reaching countryside views, but it is an isolated hamlet location with average mobile signal and limited immediate local services. The property is offered freehold at £550,000; while described as well-maintained, the size and age of the building mean buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance and potential partial modernisation if converting fully to private family use.
This listing will suit buyers seeking income potential from holiday or B&B use, families needing extensive accommodation, or investors looking for a countryside hospitality opportunity. Flood risk is reported as none and the area is very affluent overall.
