The Old Vicarage is believed to date from 1856 and is constructed with attractive red brick elevations under tiled roofs. The property is a fine example of Victorian architecture with well-proportioned rooms, high ceilings and a wealth of original period features, including deep glazed windows, cornicing, picture rails, deep skirting boards, open fireplaces, solid wood floors and panelled doors.
The present owners have carried out a comprehensive programme of alterations and improvements to include the installation of a brand-new pressurised heating and hot water system with underfloor heating, new flooring to the reception hall, re-plastering and redecoration to the majority of the accommodation, renovation of the shutters to the sitting room and the re-arrangement of the principal bedroom suite with new en-suite bathroom.
The works have been carried out to an exceptionally high standard, and the result is a stunning family home, flooded with natural light providing a classical, warm family home, suitable for a variety of family needs.
