3 bed 1 bath Detached
Character farmhouse on over 2 acres with substantial outbuildings — renovation needed.
- Detached three-bedroom farmhouse with character features
A traditional three-bedroom detached farmhouse set in a substantial rural holding, Orchard House offers strong potential for someone seeking a character-rich family home with equestrian or smallholding capability. The main house retains exposed beams, stone features and generous room sizes across about 2,531 sq ft, complemented by a large cluster of traditional outbuildings and enclosed paddocks extending to roughly 2.02 acres.
The property is offered for renovation and will suit purchasers aiming to refurbish and personalise — there are single-glazed windows in parts, an E EPC rating, and the accommodation requires updating throughout. Significant outbuilding floor area (barns, byres, garage, former dairy and stores) presents options for workshop space, storage or conversion subject to consents. The site fronts a minor road and benefits from a quiet village setting with very low crime and fast broadband.
Practical details to note: the house is sold as seen, parts of the lofts and some upper floors are not safe to access, and services/appliances have not been tested. Council Tax Band C, freehold tenure and no flood risk. This is a good fit for buyers wanting a countryside project with immediate land and hardstanding for livestock, vehicles or rural enterprise.
