Redgates Farm is an immaculate Grade II listed farmhouse set in about ten acres of gardens, paddocks and outbuildings. Recently refurbished throughout, the main house combines period features—exposed timbers and inglenook fireplaces—with a fully modernised interior including a superb open-plan kitchen/living hub and a ground-source heating system. The property includes a stylish one-bedroom annexe with mezzanine snug, ideal for guests or multi-generational living.
The estate is arranged for country life: a stable yard with tack room, feed store and floodlit ménage, post-and-rail paddocks, a hard-surface tennis court and generous terraces with an outdoor kitchen, hot tub and fire-pit seating area. The approach is via electric gates and a sweeping gravel drive to a large forecourt and barn-style outbuildings that offer scope for ancillary conversion subject to consent. Five well-proportioned bedrooms in the main house include a luxurious principal suite with dressing area and en-suite bathroom.
Practical considerations are set out clearly. Listed status means alterations will be restricted and will require specialist consent. Heating runs from an oil-fired boiler (not a communal supply) despite the ground-source system, and the historic timber-frame construction likely lacks modern wall insulation. Broadband speeds are very slow, and council tax is described as quite expensive. For buyers seeking a turnkey, high-quality country home with equestrian facilities and strong renovation potential for outbuildings, this is a rare, substantial offering; those needing fast connectivity or unrestricted remodelling should note the constraints.
