For the first time in 40 years, Bengrove Farm has come to the market, a of tranquil, Grade II-listed home with five acres of land near the Gloucestershire village of Teddington, which sits roughly 6 miles east of Tewkesbury and 8 1/2 miles north of Cheltenham, and just within the Cotswolds AONB.
On offer at a guide price of £1.75m via Rupert Wakley of Jackson-Stops in Chipping Campden, the working smallholding has at its heart an 18th-century, five-bedroom main house built of Cotswold stone and rendered brick under a tile-and-slate roof.
The house positively drips with age-old charm, with exposed stone walls, flagstone floors and ceiling beams much in evidence.
The house is wide rather than deep, and with only one small hallway that links to the study and sitting room, while the remainder of the rooms connect directly to each other: there is a drawing room and boot room, as well as a kitchen-diner and a utility area and a cellar.
There are several outbuildings, the pick of which is a Cotswold-stone barn that has been converted and is currently used as a staff room and office.
There are also 14,095sq ft of steel-framed outbuildings and yards, beyond which the land is ring-fenced and laid to grass.
Bengrove Farm is currently on the market via Jackson-Stops at a guide price of £1.75 million — see more pictures, or enquire with the agent for further details.
