Corner Farm House is an exceptionally restored Grade II listed Elizabethan home offering four bedrooms, two bathrooms and generous reception space across two wings. The property has been painstakingly renovated using traditional materials and methods, retaining original timbers, exposed beams, leaded-light windows and oak fittings while providing modern comforts. Its history and character are major attractions for buyers who value authenticity.
Set on a large plot, the house benefits from a double garage, extensive off-street parking and a mature, well-landscaped garden with patios and herbaceous borders—ideal for family life and entertaining. The layout is flexible, with three ground-floor reception rooms, a kitchen breakfast room, study and utility/cloak room that adapt well to home working and children’s activities.
Important practical points: the building’s listed status means any future alterations will be restricted and potentially costly; the vendor notes this will cause difficulties. Local factors to consider include a very high crime rate in the area and relatively high council tax. Transport links are strong for commuters, with easy access to the M1/M25 and a direct rail service to London Euston.
This home will suit buyers who appreciate historic character, careful restoration and a substantial private garden, and who are comfortable managing the responsibilities and restrictions that accompany a listed building.
