Occupying a large plot in the heart of Drayton Beauchamp, The Old School House is a Grade II listed former schoolroom dating from 1844. The property retains period character and has been extended to provide flexible family accommodation including a generous principal bedroom with dressing area, up to four bedrooms, two bathrooms and multiple reception rooms that take advantage of sweeping countryside views.
The wraparound garden and ornamental pond create a private, peaceful setting, with a gravel drive, ample parking and a single garage. Ultrafast broadband (1,000 Mbps) and low local crime make the house well suited to home working and family life, while nearby good schools and countryside walks suit an active rural lifestyle.
Buyers should note the listed status and existing covenants: any alterations will be subject to restrictions and may cause practical or cost difficulties. Council tax is described as quite expensive. There is a low general flood risk, though reservoirs are recorded as a potential risk in the area.
This is a characterful, detached family home offering scope for sympathetic updating rather than full refurbishment. It will suit purchasers looking for period detail, outdoor space and excellent rural views, and who are prepared to manage listed-building constraints.
