Moat Farmhouse is a substantial Grade II listed farmhouse dating from the 18th century, offered for the first time in around 70 years. The house combines original period features — exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces and sash windows — with modern conveniences such as an updated kitchen, utility and multiple wood-burning stoves. Set on a large, wrap-around garden with a gated gravel driveway, the property provides generous family-focused living space across two floors and considerable scope for a ground-floor annexe subject to listing constraints and planning.
The ground floor offers multiple reception rooms that flow to a garden room with double doors onto a sunny patio; the utility and adjacent shower room give potential for independent ground-floor accommodation. Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, including a master with a modern ensuite, extensive eaves storage and attractive countryside views. A substantial powered workshop, garden shed and log store add practical value for hobbies, home business or storage.
Important practical points are stated plainly: the house is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and could complicate conversion or extension plans. Council tax is in an expensive band and the property’s age and character mean periodic maintenance is likely. Broadband speeds are average; mobile signal is excellent. Overall, this is a rare opportunity for a family seeking a large, characterful rural home with outbuildings and garden space, or for buyers who value period fabric and are prepared to manage listed-building constraints.
