This historic farmhouse for sale is two centuries old and sits on the banks of a stream. 

Nowers Farm, in Wellington, is Grade II listed and dates back to the early 1800s, with period features such as a hipped slate roof, window sashes and a gabled porch. 

The house has been extended over time, and sits in a plot of approximately four acres, including outbuildings. 

The porch leads to a passage with a tiled floor, built-in bookshelves and an under-stairs cupboard. 

The passage leads to a sitting room with a stone fire surround and hearth with a mantle over, and a reception room with shelving and a fireplace. 

On this floor, there is also a dining room with an open fireplace and wooden mantle, and a kitchen with an oil-fired Aga, as well as a larder, a cloakroom and a boot room. 

Upstairs, there are five bedrooms, two of which feature ensuite bathrooms, two with built-in or fitted wardrobes, and one with a dressing room. 

Outside, the grounds include a paddock and arable land with an area of woodland and an orchard, plus a walled garden with flower and vegetable beds.

As well as this, there is a range of outbuildings, a garage and a barn. 

The property is being sold by Stags for a price of £795,000. 

Claire Cressy, manager at Stags Wellington, commented: “It has been with its present owner for several decades (over 70 years) and would make a beautiful family home. 

“Located just outside of the town in its own landscaped grounds bordered by a stream, the property is easily accessible and is very well placed for Wellington school.”
