The sale of Ferney Home Farm, Onibury near Ludlow offers a rare opportunity to restore a farmhouse with many original features to a fine country property.
Ferney Home Farm is on the market with Berrys for £595,000 which includes a four bedroomed completely original house, a courtyard range of traditional buildings and land extending to approximately 1.5 acres. Further land is available by separate negotiation.
The property is nestled amongst peaceful South Shropshire countryside and is approached through Grade II Listed parkland. It was formerly part of Ferney Hall, which lies below the property and was part of the Hopton Estate.
“This is a rare restoration project for someone looking to live in an idyllic rural location. It is an extremely flexible property and would make a fine family home with a paddock to keep a pony or other pets. Alternatively, it could suit someone looking to work from home or wanting to run a business as the accompanying buildings have great potential to be developed, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents,” said Chris Jones who is handling the sale for Berrys.
Ferney Home Farm is situated approximately two miles from the village of Onibury and six miles north west of the popular market town of Ludlow with its many excellent restaurants and food retailers.
The original features within the four-bedroom farmhouse include flagstone floors, oak paneling, exposed beams and a cellar. The house offers immense potential for extension and modernisation.
The accommodation briefly comprises: porch; entrance hall with flagstone floor; living room with flagstone floor and marble fireplace; breakfast room with flagstone floor, former bread oven set into wall and Rayburn; kitchen; pantry with tiled floor; bathroom; cloakroom and cellar on the ground floor.
On the first floor, a split level landing leads to a master bedroom overlooking the courtyard and three further bedrooms.
The house has a large south facing garden and orchard with mature fruit trees and a small brick outbuilding used for storage.
The large courtyard traditional buildings are constructed of stone under a slate roof extending to approximately 4,000sqft which are suitable for stabling and have potential for other uses such as storage or holiday lets, subject to obtaining planning consent.
