Description

Street Farm is a former working farm in the delightful village of Hawkesbury Upton, surrounded by the magnificent countryside of the Cotswold Hills AONB. The farm has been handed down through the same family for the last 100 years and has been a much-loved family home and an intrinsic part of this thriving rural community. The property is believed to date back to at least 1750, though it is not listed and as such presents a fantastic opportunity to renovate or redevelop. There is great potential for use as a smallholding or equestrian property, or to convert the outbuildings into additional dwellings (subject to obtaining the necessary consents). The property is somewhat dated and would require some general improvements, updating and redecoration. There are many character features throughout, including impressive stone inglenook fireplaces with wood-burning stoves, and exposed beams.

The accommodation comprises a sitting room, family room, kitchen and cloakroom on the ground floor, with a separate store accessed from outside. Upstairs there are three good-size double bedrooms and a shower room.

Outside
Street Farm is situated at the centre of the village and is on the doorstep of all the village's many amenities. The house sits side on to the High Street, with abundant flowerbeds to the front, a tarmac driveway and a parcel of lawn bordered by a Cotswold stone wall. Double five-bar gates separate the house and front garden from the rest of the land, which is formerly agricultural buildings comprising stores, workshops and tractor sheds of both stone and steel-framed construction. Together with its additional grassed areas and a large paddock to the rear, the property presents excellent potential for equestrian use or redevelopment.
