Old Farm is a substantial renovated thatched farmhouse in peaceful South Barrow, arranged as a large five‑bedroom main house with a separate one‑bedroom annexe. Recent refurbishment preserves period character—exposed beams, Hamstone walls and inglenook fireplaces—while adding modern kitchens, bathrooms and services. The property sits in approximately an acre of well‑established, south‑facing gardens with mature specimen trees, terraces and an easy‑maintain vegetable garden.
The converted stables (Stable Cottage) provide a spacious independent one‑bed annexe with vaulted ceilings, wood burner and private terrace. Currently used as a short‑let, the annexe offers immediate income potential or flexible space for extended family. There are multiple outbuildings, a garage and gravel driveway providing ample parking and storage.
Planning permission has been granted for a kitchen/dining extension to the main house, presenting a clear opportunity to enlarge the ground‑floor living space. The property also benefits from approval in principle for separation into two dwellings, though final Land Registry notification and formal completion of that process will be required on purchase.
Buyers should note material considerations: the thatched roof and traditional construction require specialist maintenance and insurance; the buildings’ age and character may carry listed/heritage constraints or additional consent requirements. The village location is peaceful and well connected by road and rail links, but services are rural (average mobile signal).
