Valley Farm is a substantial Cotswold-stone farmhouse and courtyard complex set in just over 20 acres of Warwickshire countryside. The main house, ancillary one-bedroom cottage and a range of barns and former agricultural buildings provide immediate family living alongside extensive scope for conversion or extension, subject to planning. Light, characterful reception rooms, mature formal and informal gardens, a large pond and established grazing fields create a private rural home with genuine equestrian potential.
The property is best suited to a buyer wanting a working or leisure smallholding: two principal fields (one stock-fenced permanent pasture), woodland and a three-bay agricultural building support horses or livestock. Practical outbuildings include a vaulted barn, open-fronted cattle sheds, stables and tack room; a timber building and large portal frame provide additional storage or workshop uses. An indoor swimming pool and separate gallery/ancillary building add versatility for family recreation or conversion schemes.
Buyers should note the property’s age and construction: the farmhouse dates from around 1760 with stone walls likely uninsulated and double glazing of unknown age. Heating is oil-fired boiler and radiators. Broadband is very slow in this rural location and council tax is described as quite expensive. The courtyard buildings and some former agricultural structures will need significant work or formal planning before residential conversion. There is no notable flood risk.
Overall, Valley Farm offers a rare combination of period charm, land and useful outbuildings for an equestrian family or smallholding purchaser prepared to manage maintenance and retrofit improvements. Its size, privacy and location in Warwickshire hunt country make it a compelling country estate with long-term potential.
