Description
This charming Grade II Listed property is a wing of a former 19th Century rectory and seminary, boasting mellow hamstone construction and a clay tiled roof. The house has been divided into two separate homes, with the Old Rectory Back featuring a substantial garden and enjoying stunning views towards St Michael's Church tower. The property has been lovingly restored and updated, retaining many original period features such as mullion windows, window seats, and working local stone fireplaces. The interior boasts a sensible layout with well-proportioned, light-filled rooms, many with exposed timber floors and lovely views over the gardens and towards the church tower. The property's highlights include a former chapel with a vaulted timber arch braced roof, stained-glass and lancet-shaped windows, and a stair turret with turned newels and spindles. The property is approached via a glazed porch and features beautifully presented accommodation, decorated with style and flair, and all modern conveniences. The garden is a tranquil oasis, with a hard tennis court, mixed beds and borders, and a substantial area of sweeping lawn.
