We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

General Description Smiths Property Experts offer to the market this fine Grade II listed former farmhouse.
The property offers a wealth of character and period features throughout the generous living accommodation.
Set in south-facing grounds extending to approximately half an acre, there is a gated driveway and a useful collection of outbuildings, including a large Victorian brick barn with excellent potential to convert into further accommodation STP.
The property has been in the same ownership for 30 years and offers a rare opportunity for the purchaser to acquire a beautiful, well-maintained, and generous period family home.
Main House Top Farm occupies an elevated and prominent position in the heart of the village and boasts a wonderful period brick facade. To the right-hand side is a gated sweeping driveway.
Lovingly cared for and maintained by the current owners for around 30 years, this Grade II listed period home features an impressive 2,696 square feet of living space with larger-sized rooms and head height across three floors than is normal for a house of this period.
We understand that the property was subject to a full schedule of refurbishment and modernisation 50 years ago.

There is a useful collection of service rooms, including an entrance hall, a utility room/pantry, a WC, and a boiler room. A cellar is easily accessible from the kitchen/central hall.
Upstairs to the first floor are three large double bedrooms and an updated family bathroom. The principal bedroom suite boasts fitted wardrobes and a separate upgraded en-suite.

On the second floor are three further bedrooms, and eaves storage, ideal for use as offices or as a separate suite of rooms for children.
