Overview

Description

Location

Discover the potential of Hoggs Farm, a truly unique property ideal for those seeking a characterful redevelopment project with immense scope. This detached Grade II Listed farmhouse, believed to date back to the 17th century, boasts a wealth of original features and historical charm. While alterations were made during the 20th century, the property now requires significant restoration and is currently unmortgageable due to visible structural issues - making it best suited to cash buyers or seasoned renovators.

Inside, the ground floor offers an open-plan lounge and dining area complete with a striking inglenook fireplace, a kitchen/breakfast room, and downstairs bathroom with boot room. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, all full of period charm. The home is brimming with character details waiting to be brought back to life with a thoughtful and sympathetic renovation.

Set in generous wrap around gardens, the property also includes a variety of outbuildings, stables and a substantial agricultural barn to the rear. This barn offers exciting possibilities - whether for conversion to residential accommodation, continued use as storage, or a business venture (subject to the necessary planning permissions).

With its historic charm, generous plot, and scope for transformation, Hoggs Farm presents a rare opportunity for the right buyer to create something truly special.

A professional survey is strongly advised.

Viewings are strictly by appointment only.

The property has the potential of being adapted to offer commercial business use, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions.

Our clients have recently submitted a pre application for conversion of the barns to residential use and had the following conclusion.

"The pre-application proposal is to convert an existing building on Green Belt land into three residential dwellings. This is likely to be acceptable in principle if it can be demonstrated that the building is of permanent and substantial construction and subject to the other detailed matters discussed in the above report".
