Five-bedroom character home with extensive grounds and strong period features.
Grade II* listed 1605 property with original beams and mullion windows
Dean House Farm is a substantial Grade II* listed property dating from 1605, set on a very large plot with far-reaching views. The house provides flexible family living across multiple reception rooms and five good-sized bedrooms, including a ground-floor room currently used as a home office. Period features — exposed beams, trusses, mullion windows and stone fireplaces — are intact and form the core character of the home.
The accommodation is largely ready to move into with a newly fitted kitchen, two en-suites and a useful utility room. Practical benefits include ample off-street parking, a stone outbuilding useful as storage/workshop/garage and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. There is no flood risk and mobile signal is excellent.
Buyers should be aware this is a Grade II* listed building; listing will restrict changes and may complicate planning, repair and insurance. The property sits in an area with high crime rates and significant local deprivation, and broadband speeds are slow — factors to consider for working-from-home needs despite the good mobile signal. Neighbouring rights of access and a designated parking area for the adjacent property are noted and should be checked further.
Overall this is a character-rich family home for a buyer who values historic detail, generous outdoor space and flexible accommodation, and who is comfortable with the responsibilities and limitations that come with listed status.
