A detached period farmhouse with a collection of barns totalling some 12,000 sq. Ft., with past planning consent for development, set in just over three acres.
Description
Set on the edge of a well-regarded village that lies just a few miles to the west of Bedford, and within a plot measuring in excess of three acres, this substantial property comprises a farmhouse in need of significant refurbishment and a range of barns and outbuildings which previously benefited from approved planning consent for residential development.
Set well back from the road, the main house is a three bedroom, three reception room, Victorian farmhouse that offers in excess of 2,000 sq. Ft. Of accommodation, with a private garden and a further period outbuilding measuring roughly 600 sq. Ft. To one side is a fenced paddock with a long road frontage, and to the other side of the farmhouse lies a collection of traditional barns, outbuildings, and former dairy, totalling approximately 3,000 sq. Ft. These are centred around a courtyard, and they benefited from planning consent for residential development that was granted in 2018 and again in 2019 to convert into two dwellings. Further to the rear is a large portal frame granary barn with sheet metal and asbestos cladding, measuring approximately 9,000 sq. Ft. A previous planning application for the development of this building was withdrawn in 2020.
Accommodation
Ground Floor: Entrance porch, hallway, kitchen, scullery, and three reception rooms.
First Floor: Landing, three bedrooms, and family bathroom.
Exterior
An agricultural setting, with a driveway of some 250 ft, splitting off to the main farmhouse, collection of outbuildings and barns, and a substantial granary barn to the rear. The rest of the property comprises approximately 2 acres of overgrown ground to the west side of the property which extends up to the main road.
