Description:

A beautiful and historic village house dating to the 16th century, presented in immaculate condition with mature gardens, situated in a private position in a sought after village. Description The Old House is believed to date back to around 1575 and be the oldest house within this highly desirable village, which regularly appears in The Sunday Times top 100 locations to live in the UK. Mentioned in Pevsner, the property is Listed Grade II and in the 18th Century was altered externally to give a Georgian appearance, including white stucco. At the beginning of the 20th Century the house underwent an extensive renovation including the removal of the stucco to reveal its original timber frame and attractive infill brickwork. The house, whilst retaining its period features has been adapted to suit modern family living and is presented to an exacting standard, offering a wonderful environment for entertaining on an intimate or large scale. The front door opens into a panelled entrance hall with a cloakroom off. An inner door reveals the stunning tiled floor of the Great Entrance Hall with exposed beams and a marble fireplace housing a wood burner. Double doors lead in to the impressive fully panelled drawing room, with a triple aspect, feature fireplace with decorative stone surround and part glazed French windows opening on to the garden. The sitting room has an attractive bay window enjoying far reaching views across the garden. The double aspect dining room also provides access to the panelled office that overlooks the front drive and has recessed shelving and a living flame gas fire. The traditional style kitchen/ breakfast room has a flagstone floor and a cream gas fired, four oven Aga within an alcove. There is one run of fitted Shaker style units with black granite worksurfaces, inset double bowl enamel sink and an integral Bosch dishwasher. There is a separate island unit with further cupboards. A glazed lantern lights up the breakfast. Still available at ListedBuy!
