Perched high on Holcombe Hill, this substantial stone farmhouse sits within 26 acres and delivers panoramic countryside views, private gated access and abundant parking. The main house offers four double bedrooms including a principal suite with luxury en-suite and fitted wardrobes, plus extensive living space: two conservatories, formal lounge, games room and a bespoke kitchen with central island and high-end integrated appliances.
A fully self-contained three-bedroom cottage with separate services provides genuine flexibility — ideal for multi-generational living, long-stay guests or holiday letting. The grounds include a tennis court, eight stables with a tack room (one stable currently used for fuel storage), greenhouse and broad paddocks that suit equestrian use, smallholding or recreational pursuits.
Practical matters are straightforward: the property is freehold with oil-fired central heating and double glazing, but the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated and broadband speeds are very slow. Council tax is high (Band H) and parts of the estate will need ongoing maintenance and updating in places.
This home will suit buyers seeking privacy, outdoor lifestyle and strong rental or ancillary-income potential from the cottage. It is less appropriate for those reliant on fast internet, low running costs, or buyers seeking a turnkey, low-maintenance urban home.
