Oatridge Farm is a Grade II listed farmhouse standing in 15 acres in a secluded position between Eastcourt and Oaksey on the Wiltshire/Gloucestershire border.
Believed to have been built in the mid-17th century with later additions, the property is in need of some general modernisation, yet it retains an abundance of character and charm with original features including beams, inglenooks, stone floors and passageways.
Accommodation is over two floors and includes hall, drawing room, sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, five bedrooms and bathroom and a large attic allowing for further scope to create more bedrooms, subject to the necessary consents.
The attached former farm buildings, the cheese room and dairy at one end and the garage and hayloft at the other, also offer scope for further development.
