Grove Farm is a substantial early-Victorian country house set in about 15.5 acres, offering an exceptional renovation opportunity for an owner-occupier or investor who wants land, outbuildings and pronounced period character. The house sits in a secluded, elevated edge-of-village position with far-reaching rural views and generous gardens and meadows, plus a pond and a concrete yard area for easy parking and vehicle access.
Interior spaces are light-filled and well-proportioned with high ceilings, sash windows with shutters, original fireplaces, panelled doors and broad circulation including a gallery landing. The house totals about 4,886 sq ft across multi-storey accommodation and includes a farmhouse kitchen with pantry, several reception rooms, and seven bedrooms — although there is currently only one bathroom, so modern reconfiguration would be required.
This is a complete renovation project: services will need full replacement, there is no working central heating system as supplied and the property has an EPC rating of F. Broadband speeds are very slow, and the track access has shared rights and is the responsibility of the owner to maintain. Positive extras include modern farm outbuildings, stabling and kennels, a ground-mounted PV array (small income), mains electricity and water, private drainage and a large development/landholding footprint suitable for equestrian, small-holding or substantial garden projects.
