Grade II listed thatched farmhouse with period features
Set at the end of a long private drive, Newhouse Farm is a Grade II thatched farmhouse offering a secluded rural retreat with 29.28 acres of ring-fenced pasture and direct frontage to the Blackwater River. The principal house retains period features—flagstone floors, fireplaces and shuttered windows—and sits within mature gardens and a kitchen garden with a pond.
The estate includes a detached three‑bedroom annexe, flexible stone and timber outbuildings (one recently fitted with power and concrete floor), and good parking. The land is well fenced, sheltered by hedgerows and mature trees, and offers genuine small‑holding or equestrian potential with local outriding from the bridleway.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status, which will limit alterations and may complicate conversions of buildings. There is a pending application to divert a public footpath nearby; a public bridleway runs along the farm track. Services are primarily private (water and drainage) with oil central heating and ultrafast broadband available.
This home will suit buyers seeking privacy, countryside character and land for livestock or horses rather than those wanting a turnkey modern farmhouse. The separate annexe adds flexibility for family use, guests or income, but the house has only one main bathroom and listed‑building constraints that will affect refurbishment scope and costs.
