The Old Vicarage

Occupying a magnificent plot on the edge of the village, The Old Vicarage is an impressive detached period home offering almost 6,000 sq ft of accommodation, including a substantial detached coach house, all set within substantial and mature grounds. Approached via metal entrance gates and a sweeping driveway, the property enjoys an exceptional level of privacy, surrounded by established trees and open countryside beyond.

Believed to date back many years, this handsome former Vicarage is rich in period charm and architectural character. High ceilings, elegant shuttered windows, original fireplaces, generous room proportions and a wealth of traditional features combine to create a home of considerable presence and distinction. Whilst requiring modernisation throughout, it presents an exciting opportunity for a buyer to sympathetically restore and enhance one of the area's most impressive homes.

The main house provides extensive and versatile accommodation arranged over three floors. The welcoming entrance hall gives access to a selection of beautifully proportioned reception rooms, including a formal sitting room, elegant library, family room and spacious dining room, ideal for both everyday family living and entertaining. The kitchen is complemented by an adjoining orangery, utility room and workshop, whilst the upper floors offer generous bedrooms, family bathroom facilities and a substantial loft room with further potential, subject to the necessary consents.

The detached coach house is a superb addition to the property, offering excellent flexibility for multi-generational living, independent accommodation, guest suites, holiday letting or those working from home. Providing its own sitting room, kitchen/dining room, garden room, bedroom and ancillary accommodation, it is an increasingly sought-after feature that significantly enhances the property's appeal.

Outside, the grounds are a true highlight. The gardens and surrounding land offer an exceptional degree of privacy, with sweeping lawns, mature trees, established planting and numerous areas to enjoy the peaceful setting. The generous plot provides endless possibilities for landscaping, recreation or simply enjoying the idyllic countryside surroundings.

The Old Vicarage represents a rare opportunity to acquire a landmark period home in a sought-after edge of village location. Combining substantial accommodation, outstanding grounds, an impressive detached annexe and enormous scope for refurbishment, this is a property with immense potential to become a truly magnificent family residence.

Situated on the edge of a well-regarded village, the property enjoys a peaceful rural setting whilst remaining conveniently positioned for access to nearby market towns, local amenities, reputable schools and excellent transport links.
