The Old Hall is a rare, Grade II listed country house combining authentic historic character with generous modern living spaces. Set in about 4.27 acres in a quiet village, the property offers six bedrooms, three bathrooms and more than 4,700 sq ft of versatile accommodation across three reception rooms and extensive ancillary space. Period features — exposed beams, sash windows and stone mullions — sit alongside a large open-plan kitchen, garden room and useful cellar.
Outdoor amenities are a major draw: formal lawns, private paddock, sheltered wooded areas, a private swimming pool, and a tennis court provide excellent leisure options and privacy. The gated in-and-out driveway, pond, double garage and parking courts serve both the main house and the five commercial units (Lucas Court) that front the site — creating clear potential for mixed residential and business use or additional income, subject to planning.
Practical points are straightforward but important. The house is listed, which will restrict changes and can complicate maintenance and development. The side lawn plot has residential development potential only if necessary planning permission is obtained. Services include mains electricity and water, private drainage, oil-fired central heating and an electric car charging point. Council Tax Band G reflects the property’s scale and running costs.
This home will suit buyers seeking a substantial family residence with room for home business or rental income, and those who value historic charm with generous grounds. It will also appeal to purchasers prepared for listed-property ownership responsibilities and any restoration or upgrading that comes with an older house.
