Description
A rare opportunity to acquire the historic Old Farmhouse in Fordingbridge, offering excellent potential for conversion into an individual four-bedroom detached family home. The proposed development would provide approximately 150 sq m of accommodation arranged across two floors, combining the character and proportions of the existing farmhouse with a thoughtfully designed contemporary layout.
The proposed ground-floor accommodation includes a spacious living room, dining hall, kitchen and additional reception space, together with a bathroom and useful ancillary areas. The first floor is designed to provide four bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with an adjoining en-suite shower room, alongside a further family bathroom. Externally, the property occupies an established plot extending to approximately 759.3 sq m.
The proposed scheme incorporates a private garden, off-road parking and carefully planned landscaping, creating an attractive and secluded setting around the completed dwelling. The accompanying plans and elevations illustrate a sympathetic conversion that retains the traditional appearance of the farmhouse while creating a practical home suitable for modern family life.
The varied rooflines, traditional windows and existing architectural character would give the finished property a distinctive appearance that sets it apart from a conventional new-build home.
The site is offered freehold at a guide price of £400,000. Prospective purchasers should note that responsibility for any applicable Community Infrastructure Levy and Section 106 contributions will pass to the purchaser.
All proposed layouts, measurements, boundaries and development details should be independently verified by the purchaser and their professional advisers before committing to the purchase.
