Summary - Easthorpe Road, Easthorpe CO5 9HD
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Large garden, garage and countryside views for families seeking character.
Grade II Listed farmhouse dating to 1350 with original timbers
A rare Grade II Listed farmhouse dating to 1350, this three-bedroom home retains original exposed beams, reconstructed inglenook fireplaces and panoramic countryside views. The sitting room’s rebuilt inglenook houses a log burner, while a formal dining room and galley kitchen keep the period layout intact. A 1960s extension adds a bright garden room and a dedicated office, useful for home working.
Set on a very large plot with a sweeping driveway to the rear, the property includes a garage and substantial external storage. The beautifully landscaped walled cottage garden provides a private outdoor sanctuary for family life, entertaining and gardening. Transport links are good for a rural location, with the A12 nearby and direct rail services from local stations to London.
Important practical points: the house’s listed status offers exceptional historic character but will restrict alterations and can complicate maintenance, permissions and specialist repairs. Parts of the house have low ceilings and period construction that may require ongoing upkeep; council tax is noted as expensive. The home is best suited to buyers who value historic character and have appetite for sensitive conservation rather than those seeking a low-maintenance modern property.
