A handsome grade II listed Georgian home with annexe and outbuildings

Description

Dating from the late 18 century with later additions, The Old Vicarage is a nicely situated Grade II listed village house which over the years has undergone a significant period of modernisation and upgrades. Offering substantial accommodation totalling just under 6000 square feet, the property also includes a sizeable annex (Garden Cottage) with three bedrooms and several outbuildings, all finished to an equally high standard.

Entering via the classic Georgian front door, a large hallway with open arches, high ceilings and beautiful York stone flooring leads through the centre of the home. Off it are a nicely proportioned snug offering the perfect space and versatility for several uses, whether it be a reading room, TV room or even home office. On the opposite side of the hallway is a large, open sitting and dining room, beautifully decorated and offering space for the whole family to enjoy, featuring multiple shuttered sash windows bathing the room with natural light throughout the course of the day.

Continuing along the hallway is a drawing room with eye catching feature fireplace and large sash windows over looking the gardens, with glazed double doors leading through to the bright and spacious kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with an array of shaker style wall and base units and an Aga. Leading off this via French Doors, is a very inviting orangery which provides a lovely all year round venue to sit and admire the garden.

The first-floor of the main house provides five of the property's eight bedrooms, alongside a separate family shower room. The principal bedroom suite is the largest and most impressive but each of the bedrooms are nicely proportioned doubles with built in storage; bedrooms two and three have the luxury of their own en suite shower rooms and built in storage, the other bedrooms having windows overlooking the leafy gardens.

Connected to the rear of the house, at right angles, is the annex, known as Garden Cottage. A self contained space which has severed a number of uses since it's conversion from a former outbuilding, housing relatives and visitors, more recently rented out. Providing a large open plan living room and fully fitted kitchen, with adjoining conservatory and three bedrooms served by two bathrooms. The cottage enjoys use of a separate garden from the main house, which is beautifully maintained and very private, and space for parking several cars.

The main house garden extends to the west, accessed via the orangery, a large stone flagged patio with modern pergola creating the perfect sitting out space to enjoy time with friends or family, overlooking the immaculate gardens beyond. The space offers plenty of privacy with a beautiful mix of shaped evergreen and deciduous trees surrounding a manicured lawn. On the eastern side of the house a gravelled entrance drive separates a sizeable outbuilding, recently rebuilt and insulated to a high standard, containing a gym and an adjacent store/workshop.
