- Party Barn with Guest Accommodation known as The Cottage

- Incredible Location, Quiet yet Convenient
- A very rare package
Spectacular location for a Grade II Listed farmhouse with consent to enlarge and improve, a gorgeous cottage, large party barn, garden office, a variety of other purposeful outbuildings (over 4000sqft in total), stables and stores (approx. 3000sqft). All set in grounds of a little over 9 acres.
A remarkable package indeed.
Birchwood Farm is found in the most unbelievable and private setting, surrounded by Hampshire countryside (with no footpaths or rights of way), offering a lifestyle that few are lucky enough to experience. The farmhouse is approx. 1600sqft and has permission to extend and improve (see details below). Today there is scope to improve the property cosmetically.
Huge transformations have occurred in recent years with regards to the outbuildings. The cottage is a real success and could suit independent teenagers, dependant relatives or those seeking income potential. The Barn offers an incredible space and has permission for use incidental to the farmhouse- currently including toilet facilities, bar, wash area and huge fireplace. It is an amazing space with enormous potential depending on your requirements- perhaps hosting events or a party barn! The barn and cottage etc are all attached and account for almost 4000sqft... limitless options and opportunity.
There is an attractive staddle stone barn (included in the approved planning permission for external renovation), another store and then outbuildings that are generally equestrian. The stables (almost 2,500sqft) have now been refurbished in recent years. A separate tack room sits within another large barn which includes two separate rooms and adjoins the rear of the garage and the original coal store. The grounds are equally as impressive being approximately 9.36 acres (3.79 hectares) of level, free-draining (sand and gravel earthy composition), all fully fenced.
Birchwood Farm is a classic Grade II Listed mid 18th Century farmhouse with a variety of excellent, more modern outbuildings the ability to create some wonderful memories there. Viewings are recommended to appreciate all the site has to offer.
