6 bedroom detached house

The Old Vicarage is an exceptional Grade II* Listed residence that effortlessly blends rich historical charm with refined modern living.

Dating back to 1590 and recognised in the 1960s for its significant architectural and historical value & located within Astley Conservation Area, this landmark property has been meticulously restored and enhanced by the current owners to an impeccable standard. Nestled behind private electric gates, the home sits within mature, beautifully landscaped gardens offering peace, privacy, and grandeur rarely found.

Arranged over three elegant floors, the accommodation includes a grand reception hall, multiple reception rooms full of character and versatility—including a stunning principal lounge, formal dining room, study, and cosy sitting room—and a spectacular bespoke dining kitchen that forms the true heart of the home. A spacious boot room and separate utility room provide essential practicality, while a convenient ground floor cloakroom/WC completes the lower level.

The upper floors host up to seven generously proportioned double bedrooms, each full of charm and individual character. The master suite includes a bespoke dressing room, and the home is served by two luxurious bathrooms, thoughtfully positioned on each floor.

Externally, the property’s gardens are a true sanctuary—lush lawns, mature trees, and colourful herbaceous borders frame expansive stone patios designed for relaxation and alfresco entertaining. The gated courtyard offers secure parking for several vehicles alongside a detached double garage, further enhancing the home's appeal.
