Believed to be named after John Badger, who, Warwickshire Records show, lived in the property in 1680, Badgers Farmhouse is a traditional south Warwickshire farmhouse with features dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries. These include an inglenook with a bread oven and another with stone seating, stone mullions to some windows, and exposed timbers.

The property, which is Grade II listed, has been sympathetically restored by the present owners, with a new roof, new heating system, kitchen and bathrooms, plumbing and electricity, all without damaging the architectural heritage and integrity of the property.

An oak front porch with a lead roof opens to a large, bright entrance hall with an oak floor. To the left is a study with a flagstone floor and a very early cross-boarded elm door, believed to date from the 16th century. The dual-aspect sitting room has an impressive inglenook fireplace, a wood-burning stove, and original stone seating. There is an oak floor, stone mullion windows, exposed beams, and window seat.

The drawing room, which has an oak floor and exposed beams, has an inglenook with a wood burner and bread oven. The light and airy kitchen, which was renewed in 2022, has an oak floor, attractive floor and wall units, and an island with a Quooker tap and quartz worktops. There is an Everhot 120i electric range cooker with an induction hob. Off the kitchen is a large walk-in pantry with a Belfast sink, granite worktops and a wine chiller. Also off the kitchen is a utility room with quartz worktops, a range of shelves and cupboards, and plumbing for a washing machine, leading to a cloakroom with a shower. Bi-fold doors lead the garden.

The spacious first-floor landing has built-in storage, bookshelves, and an airing cupboard. The principal bedroom suite is entered through a dressing room with en suite wet room off. This large double bedroom has a 19th-century fireplace, a part vaulted ceiling with original beams, and an enclosed mezzanine currently used for storage. There are two further large double bedrooms and a bathroom on this floor.

The staircase continues to a second-floor landing and studio, which could be divided into a fifth bedroom or bathroom. A door leads to a further large double bedroom with roof lights to two sides and a store beyond.

Badgers Farmhouse is approached through a stone wall to a large gravel parking area with shrubs and borders and a close-boarded fence, giving privacy to the main garden. This is principally lawned and is south-facing. Views over traditional pastureland to Tysoe Church and beyond provide a peaceful aspect. The main garden has a summerhouse, mature trees, rockeries, a secure workshop with power and lighting and a covered log store beyond. The bifold doors from the kitchen open to a secluded flagstone patio and raised beds for vegetables, herbs and flowers. The boiler house allows easy access to the biomass boiler with a hopper and plenty of space for pellet storage.

This farmhouse enjoys all the benefits of a tranquil rural landscape and friendly community within walking distance of the facilities of the main village of Tysoe.
