6 bedroom detached house for sale

The Old Vicarage is a beautifully proportioned Edwardian home that effortlessly combines space, character and practicality for modern family life. Set behind gates and surrounded by a private, south-facing garden, it offers both a sense of arrival and a lifestyle to match.

Extending to over 4,800 sq ft and arranged across three floors, the house has been thoughtfully updated to retain its original period features while creating a layout that works for contemporary living. It’s a home that has been designed not just to look impressive, but to be lived in, whether that’s everyday family life, large gatherings, or multi-generational living.

At the heart of the home is a warm, open and sociable living space that truly brings everything together. Flowing from the kitchen, this is where day-to-day life happens, children coming and going, homework at the table, friends dropping by, and evenings that naturally turn into long, relaxed dinners. A striking dual log burner and doors opening directly onto the garden make it a space that works just as well in winter as it does in summer.

The kitchen itself is central to the home, fitted with classic shaker-style units and offering plenty of room for informal dining. It’s a space designed for gathering, from busy weekday mornings to weekend breakfasts and entertaining that easily spills into the rest of the house.

For more formal occasions, the dining room provides an elegant setting, comfortably seating ten and filled with natural light, while the separate lounge to the front offers a quieter place to retreat. A dedicated study provides an ideal space for home working, and additional rooms including a conservatory and cinema room give the flexibility that modern family life demands.

Upstairs, the sense of space continues. The first floor offers four generous double bedrooms, including a well-appointed principal suite with a stylish en-suite bathroom featuring a freestanding bath and walk-in shower. A family bathroom and excellent storage complete this level.

The second floor creates a more private and self-contained space, ideal for older children, guests or extended family. With two further double bedrooms and a contemporary shower room, it lends itself perfectly to multi-generational living.

Outside, the south-facing garden is a standout feature and perfectly reflects how the house is enjoyed. There is ample space for children to run freely, while also offering the ideal setting for summer entertaining, barbecues and gatherings with friends. The heated outdoor swimming pool, complete with changing facilities, adds a further layer of lifestyle appeal.

The property also benefits from a gated driveway and a double garage, currently arranged as a gym but offering excellent potential to be converted into a self-contained annex (subject to the necessary consents), making it particularly appealing for multi-generational living or guest accommodation.

A home designed for bringing people together, whether that’s everyday family moments or hosting on a larger scale, all set within a characterful and substantial period property, and truly is a home for life!
