6 bedroom detached house for sale

Believed to date back to 1704, this handsome Grade II listed farmhouse offers over 5,000 sq ft of versatile living space. Steeped in history and full of period charm, the house has evolved over the centuries to become a substantial and adaptable family home. Now in need of some repair and modernization, it presents a rare opportunity for a buyer to restore and enhance a beautiful historic property to their own style and specification.



The main house features generously proportioned reception rooms, many with high ceilings and original features, though some charmingly quirky lower-ceiling areas remain around the hallways and staircases. There are six well-sized bedrooms, two of which are located on the second floor.



Adjoining the main house on the west side is a separate wing, currently configured as a large utility room, children's sitting room, and home office. This space offers excellent potential for reconfiguration, perhaps as a self-contained annex, office suite, or Airbnb accommodation (subject to necessary consents).



Tucked away within the mature gardens and screened by high hedging lies a delightful two story former gardener’s cottage, constructed of traditional flint. This characterful building could equally lend itself to conversion into additional guest or rental accommodation, again subject to listed building and planning consent.



The gardens are a real highlight of the property, combining formal English country planting with areas of natural wildflower reseeding. A variety of specimen trees, such as Weigela, tulip tree, cedar, bay, and walnut add further interest, while winding paths lead to hidden lawns and peaceful seating areas. A triple garage sits at the front of the property, offering ample parking, with three further spaces adjacent to the west wing.



The farmhouse is conveniently located near the heart of the village, which offers a range of amenities including a post office, pharmacy, general store, doctor’s surgery, and local schools, all within walking distance. There are two popular village pubs nearby, along with Ham Manor Golf Course.
