5 bedroom detached house for sale in Abenhall, Nr Flaxley, Impressive Former Rectory, GL17

Summary - OLD RECTORY, CHURCH LANE GL17 0DX

5 bed 3 bath Detached

Secluded family home with vast gardens and far-reaching views.
Grade II listed Gothic Revival rectory circa 1840
A rare Gothic Revival rectory dating from c.1840, set in about an acre of established gardens with panoramic countryside views. The Old Rectory offers generously proportioned period rooms, high ceilings, three principal receptions and two interlinked conservatories that create an exceptional family entertaining space. Principal living rooms retain original shutters and open fireplaces, and the five first-floor bedrooms all enjoy extensive outlooks.

Practical outbuildings include detached double garaging/workshop with loft, stone stores and former dairy; several of these have potential for conversion subject to listed-building consents. The house is presented with a modern, classically styled kitchen and useful utility space, but there is scope to personalise and adapt rooms for multi‑generational living or modern family layouts.

Important considerations: the property is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and may complicate works and consents. Services are traditional – oil central heating, mains water/electricity, and a cess pit; broadband speeds are very slow. Council tax sits at the upper band for the area, and some updating or maintenance may be required in places.

Chain free and privately sited next to the historic church in a quiet hamlet, this imposing rectory will suit buyers seeking character, space and seclusion who accept the responsibilities of a listed country home and the practicalities of rural living.
