A distinguished Georgian farmhouse with land and outbuildings – a rare restoration opportunity.

Lea End House is a substantial and elegant three-storey Georgian residence, offering a rare opportunity to restore and revitalise a home of true architectural distinction. Set within approximately two acres of mature and private grounds, this generously proportioned property combines rich historic character with exceptional scope for modern refinement.

Constructed of classic red brick under a traditional tiled roof, the Grade II Listed farmhouse boasts a striking façade and a wealth of period features throughout. Complementing the main house is a comprehensive range of outbuildings, including a separate self-contained bungalow, a traditional barn, stables, workshops, and extensive garaging - offering superb potential for a variety of lifestyle, equestrian, or ancillary uses (subject to the necessary consents).

Dating back to the Georgian era, the property retains many original features that reflect its heritage and charm. These include exposed timber beams, a magnificent inglenook fireplace, and a traditional cellar - each detail a testament to the craftsmanship of its time. In more recent years, the property has undergone elements of modernisation, blending period authenticity with contemporary comfort.

The spacious and versatile accommodation extends across three floors, comprising three elegant reception rooms, six generously proportioned bedrooms, and three bathrooms. The layout offers excellent flexibility, with ample opportunity to create a bespoke family home tailored to modern living while honouring its historic roots.

Lea End House represents a truly exceptional offering - ideal for discerning buyers seeking a country home project of scale, substance, and timeless appeal.

Outside

Beyond the main residence, Lea End House is complemented by an attractive collection of traditional outbuildings that add both charm and versatility to the estate. These include a detached self-contained bungalow offering separate accommodation, a characterful stone barn, a stable block, a workshop, and a series of additional storage spaces - ideal for a variety of lifestyle or equestrian uses.

The grounds are equally impressive. Expansive lawns sweep gracefully around two sides of the property, framed by mature trees and established hedging, creating a sense of privacy and seclusion. A gated entrance opens into a picturesque paddock, home to a large dew pond - a tranquil and scenic setting that offers a peaceful retreat or space for grazing.

Across Ash Lane, a further parcel of land extends the estate’s appeal. This more natural, overgrown area is steeped in rustic charm, featuring the atmospheric remains of a historic cart-hovel, quietly echoing the rich agricultural heritage of the property.
