Spacious five-bedroom farmhouse with six acres, studio, barn and peaceful privacy.
Late-19th-century farmhouse with Victorian character and high ceilings
Friths Farm House is a substantial late-19th-century farmhouse set in approximately six acres on the edge of Chiddingly, offering a rare blend of period character and contemporary living. The house has been sympathetically extended with abundant chestnut and glass, creating bright open reception spaces with high ceilings and generous room proportions. Floor-to-ceiling glazing in the main living area brings garden and parkland views into the heart of the home.
The property includes five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a studio with kitchenette and shower, a barn currently used as a gym/games room, and further outbuildings suitable for agricultural or equestrian use. Around 2.5 acres are landscaped gardens, orchard and parkland, with the remaining land used as grazing. A long private drive, off-street parking and a garage add to the seclusion and convenience.
Practical considerations include oil-fired central heating, solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, and slow broadband speeds — all factors to consider for running costs and modern living needs. The EPC rating is D and council tax is in the higher band, reflecting the house’s size and age. The setting in a hamlet delivers peace and privacy but means amenities and rail links require short drives.
This property will suit buyers seeking a substantial family home or a buyer wanting land and flexible outbuildings — someone who values privacy, period charm and space and is comfortable with the ongoing maintenance typical of older solid-wall houses and rural services.
