Spacious five-bedroom home with private gardens and independent annexe.
Grade II listed farmhouse dating to 1667 with extensive period features
The Friary is a rare Grade II listed farmhouse dating to 1667, set within a private 0.55-acre plot in peaceful Maxey. Extended over centuries, the house blends authentic period features—exposed beams, stonework and carved archways—with generous living space: approximately 3,013 sq ft of main home plus a self-contained 415 sq ft annexe. Practical comforts include underfloor heating to the kitchen, bathroom and annexe, an oil-fired Aga in the farmhouse kitchen, and a detached double garage accessed via electric gates.
Well-suited to families or multigenerational households, the layout offers multiple reception rooms, a formal dining hall, a drawing room, and five bedrooms including an en suite. The annexe provides independent accommodation for guests or rental potential. The wraparound gardens, mature trees and terrace create private outdoor space for children and entertaining, while ample driveway parking and a turning circle serve larger households and visitors.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status and conservation area location: any alterations will require listed-building consents and may complicate renovation plans. Heating is oil-fired and broadband speeds are reported slow — important for those who work from home. Council tax sits in a higher band. Despite these constraints, the home’s character, sizable plot and annexe present strong long-term lifestyle and family potential in an affluent village setting.
