A handsome Grade II listed village house in a highly regarded village.

Description

Dating back to the 1770s, Old Farm House is a handsome Grade II listed property built in classic Cotswold stone, showcasing an impressive traditional façade, stone slate roof, tall chimney stacks and elegant mullioned windows. Having been in the same family for nearly forty years, the house is brimming with character and charm. Now in need of modernisation, it presents a wonderful opportunity for a new owner to unlock its full potential.

Set along a traditional village street, Old Farm House sits comfortably among a row of characterful period homes, enjoying an attractive outlook and an authentic Cotswold setting.

Upon entering, the property opens into a generous and welcoming entrance hall, enriched with exposed beams, stonework and a wood burning stove set within a feature fireplace. Filled with natural light and offering access to the garden, this spacious and versatile room creates an impressive first impression and provides access to all principal rooms.

The sitting room is equally inviting, offering excellent proportions and an abundance of character. Centred around a striking inglenook fireplace and enhanced by exposed beams and timber details, it enjoys a charming outlook to the front of the house. Its size and layout allow for flexible seating arrangements and an easy flow into the adjoining rooms. The dining room continues the theme of period charm, featuring exposed stonework, timber beams and a deep stone window seat - an ideal setting for family meals or entertaining guests.

The traditional kitchen, now ready for modernisation, offers fitted units, generous worktop space and room for a breakfast table. Beyond this, the utility room provides further storage, work surfaces and appliance space. A practical ground floor shower room completes the accommodation on this level.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts three well proportioned bedrooms, each offering excellent scope for sympathetic renovation. A family bathroom, also requiring modernisation, serves this floor. The top floor features a further generous bedroom with its own en suite shower room, offering flexibility as a guest room or potential principal suite.

The property benefits from a mature, well screened garden that offers both privacy and wonderful potential. The main garden comprises an expanse of lawn bordered by established shrubs, evergreens and natural planting, creating a sheltered and leafy setting. Mature hedges and trees form natural boundaries, giving the garden a secluded feel and providing an ideal backdrop for landscaping or future enhancement.

From the upper floors, the garden opens out to attractive views offering a lovely sense of depth and greenery. The property also includes a carport and two garden sheds, providing ample storage and scope for improvement. A side gate gives useful access out to the lane.
