Description:

Stunning Georgian former Rectory with elegant, versatile accommodation, detached cottage and private, mature gardens. Description The Old Rectory is a wonderful period country house providing 5520 sq ft of versatile accommodation over two floors (plus cellar). Of brick elevations beneath a slate roof, the handsome Georgian property was extended by previous owners in the 1990s to provide a really spacious and versatile seven bedroom family home. This fantastic unlisted period property incorporates many period features including deep sash windows and shutters, a large bay window in the drawing room, high ceilings, open fireplaces, cornicing and skirting boards and a wonderfully elegant principal staircase. Entering the panelled front door via the symmetrical tiled porch with diamond trellising, the side hall leads to the central staircase hall in the older part of the house. To the far end is the elegant triple aspect drawing room with an open fireplace, marble surround and a wide bay window enjoying wonderful garden views. The library/snug is adjacent with an open fireplace and there is a guest cloakroom opposite. Beside the staircase is the impressive double aspect formal dining room with a marble fireplace (not used). The inner hall incorporates the back staircase and gives access to the study, formerly the Rector’s room which overlooks the drive at the front of the house. Beyond is the re-fitted kitchen/breakfast room with views over the rear lawns to the adjoining pond and fields beyond and also to the side courtyard. Re-fitted in more recent years with an extensive range of floor and wall cupboards and drawers, the kitchen also incorporates an electric Aga, four ring hob, tall fridge and freezer and wine fridge together with a large central island with breakfast bar, wine and further storage there is also access from here to the cellar and rear hall. The breakfast room adjoins with a woodburner and further storage beside the brick. Still available at ListedBuy!
