Home Farm is a substantial Grade II listed Georgian farmhouse set in around 41.93 acres of parkland, specimen trees and historic tree-lined avenues. The principal house (approximately 4,750 sq ft) was refurbished in 2016 and offers grand reception rooms, high ceilings, a principal suite and usable formal gardens with a south-easterly outlook. A swimming pool with pool house and terraced lawns add private leisure space.
The estate includes two recently refurbished cottages, a timber granary, and several outbuildings including a former village hall and engine shed. These ancillary buildings previously had planning consent (2019) for conversion to holiday accommodation, but those consents have now lapsed — presenting opportunity subject to fresh applications. There is existing income potential from the cottages alongside scope for further holiday or ancillary residential uses, subject to permissions.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the property has listed status which restricts alterations and will complicate works, and the earlier planning consents have expired. Broadband is very slow and mobile signal is only average — factors to weigh for home-working or short-term lets. Tenure details are not provided. Overall this is a rare country estate offering significant scope for an owner-occupier or investor who values character, scale and development potential within planning and listing constraints.
