Set within an impressive Grade II* Jacobean house, this unusually spacious two-bedroom apartment combines substantial living space with period detail. Recently refurbished to a high standard, the home sits on the third floor and is reachable by private lift or staircase, making the large 1,655 sq ft layout genuinely practical for modern living while retaining exposed beams, original chimneys and character features.
The dual-aspect kitchen/dining room and generous living room provide flexible entertaining and day-to-day family space, while two double bedrooms (principal with period character) and two contemporary bathrooms meet both comfort and convenience needs. Residents have access to extensive communal gardens, a private garden a short stroll away, communal storage and two allocated off-street parking spaces. The village location offers local shops, pubs and a nearby rail link with services towards London.
Important practical points are clear: the building’s Grade II* listed status restricts external and certain internal alterations, and the property is leasehold with a long-term lease (circa 975–999 years from 1977) and an annual service charge of about £3,600. The construction includes traditional timber framing (likely without modern insulation) which will influence running costs and any future works. Overall, this is a rare, large-period apartment for someone seeking character, space and village life, but buyers should expect listed-building constraints and communal service costs.
