The Property
Owles Farm House offers an exciting opportunity to refurbish a distinctive family home in a unique rural setting. Finished in a white render with brick quoins under a tiled roof the house stands proudly square in its own
gardens.
Internally there is a selection of reception rooms with 3 bedrooms at first floor level. To the north is an extensive range of stables, a large feed and tack room and a further storage barn. Owles Farm has previously been a livery
yard. Standing to the east of the house is a range of traditional and modern farm buildings largely constructed of steel frame and clad in corrugated iron.
Planning
Planning consent was granted on 17th February 2020 under Class Q for the conversion and change of use of two agricultural buildings to 5 dwellings with alterations by East Herts Council.
Reference 3/19/223/ARPN dated 17th February 2020.
The consent allows for the conversion of ‘Barn 1’ to create four terraced houses each of about 1,000 sq ft with three bedrooms. The consent for ‘Barn 2’ grants the conversion to create a substantial single dwelling of about 5,000 sq ft, the house being single storey with five bedrooms.
The Land
Lying predominantly to the south and west of the farm house and buildings there is about 18.7 acres arable. Due south of the buildings are the paddocks and the site of an old manege. To the west is further well drained paddock land and part of a field that is currently in arable use.
Owles Farm occupies an elevated position with fine views over the surrounding well maintained agricultural land. The market town of Buntingford is just 1.3 miles away providing a good selection of local shops whilst more comprehensive facilities are available in Bishop’s Stortford 12 miles distant.
Communications are excellent by both road and rail. Fast and frequent trains leave Stevenage reaching London Kings Cross in 23 minutes. The A10 is within 1.5 miles connecting with the M25 and the national motorway network There is an excellent selection of schools in the district including Heathmount, St Edmunds, Bishops Stortford College, The Purse, The Leys and Haileybury College.
