Set on the edge of Golden Green, this large Georgian farmhouse combines authentic period character with generous, flexible space for a growing family. Original brick chimneys, exposed beams and inglenook fireplaces give the house strong historic charm, while three floors of accommodation include five double bedrooms and multiple reception rooms for everyday family life and entertaining.
The property sits in an extensive, mainly lawned garden that backs onto farmland, accessed via a private driveway and five-bar gate. A double garage and a substantial outbuilding offer practical storage and clear potential to create an annex or additional living space subject to obtaining planning permission.
This is a renovation project: the house needs updating throughout, which presents an opportunity to personalise the interiors and improve energy efficiency. Practical considerations include slow broadband, average mobile signal and relatively high council tax. Local schools rated Good are nearby, though a local secondary has a Requires Improvement rating.
For buyers seeking country living with space and historic detail, this farmhouse offers scope to create a tailored family home or multi-generational setup. The low crime rate, no flooding risk and affluent area add reassurance for long-term ownership, while the renovation requirement means this will suit someone prepared to invest time and budget to realise the property’s potential.
