House For Sale £750,000
Truly unique 5 bedroom family home and a suite of 3 offices, situated a stones’ throw from this historic village centre. An impressive Queen Anne staircase rises to the principle rooms; large windows with window seats and impressive tall ceilings in the back of the building.
Spacious accommodation provides plenty of space for an extended family, in summary comprising:- entrance hall, sitting room, and 3 offices. On the first floor is landing, kitchen, dining room, bathroom, and on the second floor 2 bedrooms and reception. 3 bedrooms in the older front part of the building are closer, with 2 ensuite shower rooms. The rear garden is accessed via the offices or the side corridor, laid to artificial grass and patio, and privately enclosed by brick walls, perfect as an evening entertainment space.

Over the centuries, the property has fulfilled an active part of village community since records began in the 1640s. In 1757 Edward Jenner is reported to have tested his new vaccine on two young children living at the property. Uses have included a brewery, joinery, grocer, and a pharmacist for about 116 years, and the character of the property preserved well… including a wig cupboard in the upstairs bathroom! Now beautifully decorated in warm pastilles, the property is ready to move in and enjoy.
