Description
The Old Rectory is an outstanding Grade II listed house which has been sympathetically modernised by our clients to create a beautiful, yet practical, family home. Throughout the house there is a wonderful feeling of space with all the proportions of high ceilings and large sash windows that one would expect from a house of this era.
On the ground floor there are two large and impressive formal entertaining rooms which are currently used as a dining room and sitting room, both rooms benefit from ample natural light and views across the garden and beyond. The ground floor is also home to a well fitted kitchen breakfast room, a study, boot room, utility room and a snug/playroom. The basement rooms are currently used as a wine store and billiards room.
On the first floor there are five double bedrooms and four bathrooms. The principal bedroom is of particular merit and has wonderful views over the garden and on towards the Ridgeway. The 2nd floor has a large, well-lit area which is currently used as a playroom but could also be a sixth bedroom.
Externally there is the original courtyard and coach house, incorporating stables and large storage areas on the ground floor. Above is the Coach House flat, which is well proportioned with a large, open-plan sitting/dining room, kitchen, bathroom and a spacious double bedroom. In addition there is a log store, and what was the original village hall, which would lend itself to a variety of uses including a garage, workshop, gym or office.
The gardens and grounds are as spectacular as you would expect. In total The Old Rectory has approximately 14 acres including formal gardens, woodland, paddocks and a tennis court.
Square Footage: 9411 sq ft
Acreage: 14 Acres
