A rare historic farmhouse rebuilt in 1830, Sephton House Farm sits within approximately 3 acres of grounds, including about 1.5 acres of private woodland. The five-bedroom layout spreads over generous rooms and high usable floor area (approx. 3,181 sq ft), offering character features such as exposed beams, a log-burning stove and a conservatory that frames garden views. The property is freehold and retains period charm alongside practical spaces for modern living.
Ground-floor living is versatile: a fitted kitchen/breakfast room with island and Velux, multiple reception rooms including a rear sitting room and conservatory, a study and a downstairs shower room. Upstairs are five well-proportioned bedrooms, the principal with en-suite and a family bathroom. Outbuildings include a powered studio/workshop, summer house, gardener’s shed and a double garage — useful for hobbies, storage or home business use.
The grounds are a standout asset: mature lawns, woodland and original features such as an open well create privacy and rural appeal. The plot suits buyers who value outdoor space — gardeners, small-scale hobby farmers, artists or those seeking a countryside lifestyle within reach of local schools and services.
Buyers should note material practicalities: broadband speeds are very slow, which may affect home-working and streaming; the house is de-listed (previously listed), and as a period property it will require ongoing maintenance and sympathetic repairs. Overall, this is a character-rich home with significant land and outbuilding potential, best suited to buyers who appreciate historic detail and are comfortable managing a large, older property.
