Summary - Skirmore Farm, Skirmore Road, Friskney PE22 8PH
2 bed 1 bath Detached
Spacious rural plot with redevelopment potential for cash buyers.
3.5 acres (sts) of land — large lawned field and pasture potential
Multiple detached outbuildings offering storage or redevelopment potential
Detached cottage in secluded rural setting with no near neighbours
Requires comprehensive renovation — cash buyers only
EPC rating G; electric storage heaters and likely no wall insulation
Very slow broadband despite excellent mobile phone signal
Off-street parking and generous gardens; no onward chain
Solid brick construction (c.1900–1929) with restricted first-floor head height
Set within about 3.5 acres (sts) and surrounded by open fields, this detached two-bedroom cottage is a rare rural parcel with significant redevelopment potential. The plot includes multiple outbuildings, generous gardens and a large lawned field suitable for equestrian or agricultural uses, and there are no near neighbours.
The cottage is in need of comprehensive renovation and improvement throughout; it currently has electric storage heating, double glazing installed post-2002, solid brick walls likely without insulation and an EPC rating of G. Because of the scale of works required the sale is restricted to cash buyers only. There is no onward chain which can speed an exchange for an investor or developer prepared to carry out structural and energy-efficiency upgrades.
Internally the layout is simple: porch, dining room, lounge, kitchen, pantry and shower room on the ground floor, with one large first-floor bedroom and a smaller bedroom with restricted head height. The plot and existing footprint present scope for extension or redevelopment subject to planning and consents — a canvass for someone seeking a countryside project.
Practical considerations: broadband speeds are very slow despite excellent mobile signal, the property sits in a remote hamlet setting so services and amenities are some distance away, and the building will need modernisation including insulation and heating upgrades. For buyers looking for privacy, space and a substantial rural plot, this offers a clear opportunity; for those needing immediate move-in condition it will not be suitable.
