Description
Puddington Old Hall is a charming Grade II* listed semi- detached property, thought to date back to the 13th century. The property sits on a former moated site within the village and offers versatile accommodation and an abundance of impressive period features. The total plot is approximately 1.7 acres.
The house is timber-framed, with roughcast brick cladding on the outer walls and a Welsh slate roof. Internally, some of the 13th-century timber framing is still visible, a perfect nod to the property’s history and character.
The accommodation opens in to a welcoming entrance hall which is flanked by an impressive drawing room and a sitting room, both of which have very attractive bay windows. The sitting room adjoins an impressive kitchen/ breakfast room which has a range of built in appliances and a central island. The remaining downstairs accommodation consists of a snug, utility room, cloakroom and a cellar (at lower ground level).
On the first floor there is an excellent principal bedroom which has its own dressing room and an en suite shower room. Bedroom 2 is of excellent proportion and has a large en suite bathroom.
There are four further bedrooms (Bedroom 3 has a Jack & Jill door to the en suite shared by the principal bedroom), a large family bathroom and a separate cloakroom.
The grounds are a wonderful feature of Puddington Old Hall. There are extensive lawns, a delightful courtyard area, herbaceous borders, a tennis court and a path which leads to an area of additional land.
There is a large outbuilding (in three bays) suitable for storage, and a detached double garage as well as plenty of space for parking.
