The Old Rectory is an imposing, detached, Grade II Listed, Georgian house which retains many of its original features including sash windows, working shutters, impressive fireplaces and cornicing.

To the rear of the property there is an attractive stone built, detached, coach house which is currently a garden bar/micro pub and offers the potential for a variety of uses.
The rear garden is a large and predominately lawned with a variety of seating areas, ornamental bushes and mature trees. The large trees and established boundaries provide the gardens with a great deal of privacy and seclusion.
A large driveway to the front and side of the house and double garage provide all the parking and more that a family would require.
Situation - The highly desirable Hardenhuish Lane offers excellent motor commuting to the major centres of Bath, Bristol, Swindon and London via the A4, A420 and the M4. Two of the town's highly reputable senior schools are within easy access together with a Morrisons supermarket.
