History Farringdon Court is a Grade II Listed collection of beautifully converted mid-19th century "model farm" buildings, originally forming part of the Home Farm of the Farringdon House Estate. These buildings replaced much earlier agricultural structures and were designed to represent an advanced form of farm architecture for their time. In the early 20th century, the buildings housed a prize-winning Friesian herd, with Nos. 1 to 4 including the main part of No. 4, serving as the cattle house. The current kitchen was once the estate's dairy, and remarkably, some of the original winding mechanisms used for dairy processing have been preserved within the property as charming heritage features. The barns were converted in the late 1990s into just eight exclusive homes. No. 4 was retained by the developer as his own private residence, which explains both the generous proportions of the accommodation and the extensive private gardens and grounds it enjoys today.
No. 4 Farringdon Court presents a rare opportunity to acquire a unique and substantial home that harmoniously combines historical charm with modern living. Its distinctive character, generous proportions, and tranquil setting make it a truly exceptional property. Offered to the market with no onward chain.
