London Apprentice Farm is a substantial 17th‑century farmhouse offering generous, characterful living spaces across two floors. Large reception rooms, exposed beams and a breakfast kitchen with Rayburn preserve the building’s historic charm while providing comfortable family accommodation. The property is sold with no upward chain.
Set on just under 4 acres, the holding includes sizeable gardens, paddocks and a range of outbuildings: a brick two‑storey barn divided into units, a large shippon and cattle shed, plus a wide yard and open car port. The barns and road‑side frontage present realistic conversion or commercial opportunities (subject to planning) — holiday lets, ancillary accommodation or small farm‑enterprise uses are all possible.
Practical considerations are clear: drainage is via septic tank, heating from an oil‑fired Rayburn, and broadband speeds are very slow. The top paddock is currently overgrown and will need clearance and ongoing maintenance. Council Tax is in a higher band and the location sits within a very deprived area classification despite low crime and good road links to Whitchurch, Chester and Wrexham.
This property suits purchasers looking for a large rural project with development potential — investors seeking conversion opportunities or families wanting long‑term space and privacy. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, the outbuildings and the extensive grounds, and to scope any refurbishment work required.
