A rare Grade II listed farmhouse set on a very large plot on the edge of Ombersley, offering a characterful family home with a versatile layout. Parts of the building date back around 300 years and retain period timber-framed detail and traditional features. The spacious traditional kitchen and generous reception rooms suit family living and entertaining.
The house sits in a prospering countryside community with good village amenities and reasonable road links to Worcester and the M5. Gardens are substantial and private, ideal for children, pets and hobby gardening. Mobile signal is excellent, but broadband speeds are very slow — important for home working and streaming.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status. Any alterations will be subject to listed-building constraints and may complicate or increase the cost of renovations. There is also an expensive council tax band to factor into ongoing costs. Early inspection is recommended for those who value historic character and who are prepared to manage conservation requirements and potential maintenance.
This home will suit families or buyers seeking a countryside retreat with scope to enhance and personalise, rather than someone wanting a modern turnkey property. It offers charm, space and seclusion, but requires acceptance of listed-building responsibilities and some practical compromises such as slow broadband.
