Frith Farm House is a substantial, newly renovated Georgian farmhouse set within approximately 7.5 acres of paddocks, formal gardens and woodland on the North Downs AONB. The main house offers generous reception rooms, a well-appointed kitchen, five bedrooms and five bathrooms across three floors, finished to a high standard while retaining period features such as sash windows, high ceilings and original fireplaces.
The estate includes nine well-equipped cottages and annexes, a detached garage with an annexe above, four stables, outbuildings and a heated indoor swimming pool — a proven, thriving holiday-let operation providing immediate ancillary income. Private, gated access, extensive parking and strong privacy make the property equally suitable as a rural family home with business potential or as an investor-ready country estate.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property is heated by an oil-fired boiler with underfloor heating rather than a mains gas system, the main house EPC rating is E, and council tax for the principal house is high. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow, which may affect long-stay tenants or home-working occupiers. Ongoing maintenance and management are required for multiple cottages, outbuildings, paddocks and the pool.
Overall, Frith Farm House offers rare scale and flexibility — a renovated period home combined with a fully operational lettings portfolio and substantial landholding in an attractive AONB location. It will suit buyers seeking a countryside lifestyle with income potential, or investors able to manage and develop the estate’s holiday-let and equestrian facilities.
