4 bedroom property with land for sale

Farmyard Development Site
This is an exciting opportunity for a developer
to create a boutique collection of high quality
detached rural dwellings in a well-located setting
with excellent access & delightful surrounding
countryside views. Full planning consent has been granted for 5 new dwellings on one side of the driveway and a positive pre-app was received from the local authority in June 2024 for 2 further detached dwellings on the other side (using the fallback position from a positive Class Q determination).

The new dwellings have been designed to
provide an exciting selection of high quality
accommodation offering an attractive choice of
sizes and styles. Most of the planning consents were granted before the new BNG requirements, meaning that only 2 of the new build dwellings will generate a requirement for BNG. Further significant benefits of this site include a nil liability for CIL (Community Infrastructure Levy) and being
outside of the phosphate offsetting zone, all
reducing costs and increasing viability.

A summary of the existing accommodation and
planning consents is provided below. The areas
(sq.ft.) provided are indicative only and cannot
be verified by Strutt & Parker.
Access into the property is via an existing single
track tarmac driveway off the quiet local road and
sufficient land will be included to enable widening

Farmhouse
The Grade II Listed farmhouse sits in a peaceful
rural setting and offers significant potential for
improvement to create an idyllic family home.
The farmhouse dates originally from the 17th
century with more recent additions and provides
up to 3,277 square feet of accommodation with
four bedrooms and plenty of original character.
The farmhouse has well-proportioned reception
rooms, high ceilings and several elegant period
features, including ornate ceiling mouldings
and tiled flooring. The ground floor has a
comfortable drawing room and sitting room,
a formal dining room and a useful study. The
kitchen has fitted storage units and integrated
appliances, while there is also an Aga in the
kitchen/dining area within a large (but currently
bricked over) inglenook fireplace. Upstairs
there are four double bedrooms, one of which
has an adjoining room which could be used as
a dressing room or converted into an en suite
bathroom. The generous principal bedroom
has extensive fitted storage and intricate ceiling
plasterwork, while the first floor also includes
a large, recently updated family bathroom with
a freestanding bathtub, dual washbasins and
a separate walk-in shower. The farmhouse has
been almost entirely re-roofed in 2022.
Farmhouse grounds
The farmhouse site features a traditional
barn immediately adjacent to the house, with
residential planning consent for a one bedroom
annexe (planning ref: 13/20/00029).
To the rear of the farmhouse is an expansive
garden of around 3.5 acres with an orchard,
tennis court, red brick garden walls and a pond
(all in need of restoration). At the front of the
house is a private driveway and parking area,
partly screened from the farmyard by a row of
tall trees. Together this all presents a fantastic
opportunity to create an impressive countryside
dwelling when restored, with acres of space.
