Nestled on Church Road in Undy, Arch Farm stands as a charming testament to historical character, with parish records tracing its origins back to a pre-1842 era. This picturesque, detached cottage is enveloped by approximately one-third of an acre of lush land, offering unobstructed, south-easterly vistas that stretch across open countryside. The property's rich history is accentuated by the fact that the current vendors have lovingly cared for Arch Farm for over five decades.
Originally a farm, this idyllic residence underwent a transformation in the 1960s, transitioning from its agricultural roots into a warm and inviting domestic dwelling. In the capable hands of the present owners, Arch Farm has seen extensive renovations, reconfigurations, and refurbishment, resulting in a truly spacious home brimming with character. With half a century of stewardship, the property's legacy is etched into every nook and cranny, making it a delightful blend of heritage and modern comfort.
