Set in about 1.25 acres on the edge of Whaplode, this detached four-bedroom farmhouse comes with substantial outbuildings, extensive glasshouses, stables and a large brick barn. The main house offers flexible living across two floors — open-plan kitchen/dining/living, separate sitting room with wood burner, ground-floor utility and shower room, plus four first-floor bedrooms including an en-suite. The property totals around 1,805 sq ft and sits on a generous plot that suits horticulture, small-scale livestock or storage/workshop uses (subject to relevant permissions).
Practical positives include a large gravel driveway with off-street parking, double glazing installed post-2002, oil-fired boiler with underfloor heating in parts, low flood risk and low local crime. The site’s buildings — a timber barn with electric shutter, a brick warehouse with sliding doors and former cold store, multiple implement sheds and greenhouses — are the main value drivers for anyone seeking an income stream, hobby farming or significant storage/ workshop space.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal only average, the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, the property uses oil heating (non-community) and the EPC is rated D. The house and outbuildings will suit purchasers prepared to maintain and possibly upgrade services and insulation; some uses for the larger barns will require planning consent. Council Tax band is low which helps running costs.
Overall this is a rural, versatile holding where the land and buildings create long-term potential for horticulture, equestrian use, workshops or refurbishment-driven value. It’s best suited to buyers seeking space and flexibility rather than those wanting urban convenience or immediate high-speed connectivity.
