Summary - BRIDGE FARM FARINGDON SN7 8JY
6 bed 5 bath Detached
Renovated 17th‑century farmhouse with pool, tennis court and 6.9 acres.
Six bedrooms across main house plus self-contained annexe
A much-loved, newly renovated 17th‑century farmhouse set in about 6.9 acres, Bridge Farm blends period charm with extensive modern living spaces. The principal house (about 8,837 sq ft) offers multiple reception rooms, a large Neptune-fitted kitchen/breakfast family room with an island and electric Aga, and a triple-aspect principal bedroom suite with vaulted ceilings and garden views. The property includes a self-contained annexe, a large pool house with party kitchen and gym, and outbuildings including a barn, workshop/machine store and two stables.
The gardens and leisure facilities are standout features: mature formal parterres, sweeping lawns, a heated swimming pool with changing rooms, sauna and disguised facilities, a tucked-away tennis court and a paddock — ideal for a growing family, entertaining or multi-generational living. Ample gravel parking and a long tree-lined drive provide strong kerb appeal and privacy in an attractive village setting with good access to road and rail links.
Practical points are clear and factual. The house is heated by an oil‑fired boiler and uses oil as the main fuel; double glazing was installed prior to 2002 and external walls are original solid brick/stone (assumed uninsulated). There is a medium flood risk in the area and council tax is described as quite expensive. The thatched section and period construction, while characterful, require ongoing specialist maintenance and insurance considerations.
This home will suit an established family seeking space, character and leisure facilities, or buyers wanting flexible ancillary accommodation and significant outdoor land. It will also appeal to purchasers who value historic fabric but accept the running costs and maintenance responsibilities that come with an older, partly thatched estate property.
