Brook Farm Farmhouse and attached Carne Cottage hold Grade II listings under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, recognized for their special architectural and historic interest. Both striking properties have undergone full refurbishment and now include substantial, fully fitted kitchens, bathrooms and shower rooms. The refurbishment has ensured a sympathetic marriage of old and new by way of a harmonious integration of the bespoke character of each property together with a modern and contemporary style and decor, to produce the feeling of living in a brand new home.
The Farmhouse features four reception rooms, including a substantial, fully fitted kitchen/breakfast room, and four double bedrooms. The brand new kitchen boasts integrated appliances, including an electric range cooker, separate integrated electric cooker, separate microwave/grill, dishwasher, integrated tall freezer and stand alone fridge. It also features a convenient corner Carousel Storage Rack and a separate pull-out larder system. The master bedroom is notably spacious at 30', showcasing impressive exposed oak beams, with a private bathroom situated across the second-floor landing in a 'top floor suite' style arrangement. Additionally, there are three more double bedrooms on the first floor, with the second bedroom enjoying an ensuite bathroom, the remaining two bedrooms are complemented by a well-appointed shower room.
Carne Cottage offers a grand entrance dining room that opens up to its modern, contemporary kitchen. Together they form the heart of the cottage. The dining room is spacious and can potentially double as a family day room. The chic kitchen boasts integrated appliances, including an electric range cooker, dishwasher, and a standalone fridge-freezer. It also features a convenient corner Carousel Storage Rack and a separate pull-out larder system. The first-floor staircase and the expansive lounge are accessed through a door from the kitchen, with the latter offering a relaxing space with views of the rear garden through an impressive glazed stone window mullion, adding elegance and enhancing the property's external aesthetics. At the other end of the cottage, accessible from the dining room, is a ground-floor double bedroom, shower room, and utility room, providing the option for complete ground-floor living. This could also serve as an independent area for a family member or guest, complete with its own shower room. Upstairs, two sizeable bedrooms, a modern bathroom, and a versatile room—perfect for an office or walk-in dressing room—await. The corridor landing is lined with cupboards, offering ample storage.
Externally, the properties both have secluded rear gardens laid to lawn, two designated parking spaces. Behind the rear gardens lies an additional plot of land, ample enough for a double, triple, or possibly even quadruple garage, with extensive space for additional parking. Planning approval already exists for a double garage measuring 6 metres x 6 metres (19.6' x 19.6'). This plot also has the potential for the construction of a separate dwelling, pending the necessary planning permissions and subject to conditions.
The area is undergoing significant development, with industrial units nearby slated for redevelopment into eight detached residences in the upcoming years. Subsequent development is also anticipated beyond the current industrial units, which is expected to positively impact the value of the potential building plot included with Brook Farm Farmhouse.
