Woodhams Farm is a substantial Grade II listed farmhouse set at the end of a long drive within about 1.4 acres of mature grounds. The house retains many period features — exposed timbers, inglenook fireplaces and wide plank floors — and offers expansive views over adjoining farmland. Generous reception rooms, a fitted kitchen with an Aga, a pool house and a three-bay garage add practical family conveniences.
The plot includes a large pond, mature trees and several useful outbuildings including a timber-framed barn that offers scope for conversion (subject to approvals). The property is offered chain free and presents clear potential for a buyer seeking character, space and privacy in a well-established rural community.
There are several important constraints to note. The Grade II listing will restrict alterations and may complicate refurbishment. The vendor notes possible asbestos in a small part of the roof, a private septic tank, and a potential breach of Listed Buildings consent relating to the pool enclosure. Broadband is currently very slow locally despite FTTP availability and council tax is described as quite expensive.
This house will suit a family or buyer seeking a characterful rural home with versatile outbuildings and land. It rewards careful inspection and planning—expect listed-building consent requirements and potential remedial costs alongside the benefits of privacy, size and period charm.
