TOWN HOUSE is a substantial Grade II listed Tudor farmhouse in Madley, offering historic character across an exceptionally large footprint. The main house provides five bedrooms, three bathrooms and five reception rooms — generous proportions that suit a growing family or someone seeking flexible living and entertaining space. Period features such as exposed timbers, inglenook fireplaces and high vaulted ceilings give the property strong kerb appeal and authentic charm.
The grounds and outbuildings are a major asset. The property sits on a very large plot with mature gardens, a cobbled courtyard, three-bay carport and extensive parking. A substantial detached barn (two floors) presents clear scope for conversion or adaptation subject to necessary consents — attractive for buyers wanting extra accommodation, an annexe, studio or hobby space.
Buyers should be aware of material constraints. Listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or conversion of the barn; specialist consents and higher repair costs are likely. The house has solid brick walls with no modern insulation (assumed), secondary glazing and oil-fired heating — energy performance will be weaker than modern homes and running costs higher. Private drainage and an oil boiler are in place.
This property suits buyers who value history, space and rural privacy and who are prepared for the responsibilities of a listed, pre-1900 farmhouse. It offers a rare combination of character, plot size and development potential but requires a buyer comfortable with conservation-led repairs, potential renovation works and the higher ongoing costs that come with an older rural home.
