St Margaret’s House is an imposing Grade II listed converted church offering over 4,000 sq ft of distinctive living space set within about one acre. The house retains authentic stone archways, original arched windows and beamed, double‑height interiors including a dramatic chancel living room — features that will appeal to buyers seeking strong character and rural seclusion.
Accommodation comprises five double bedrooms (one ensuite), a spacious kitchen/breakfast room, large dining room, study and extensive galleried landing. The property sits at the end of a quiet lane with a sweeping gravel driveway, generous off‑street parking and landscaped wrap‑around gardens with far‑reaching countryside views and useful outbuildings including a workshop and large log store.
Important practical points are clear: the house is Grade II listed, which may restrict alterations and can complicate works or approvals. Drainage is via a private system, heating is oil‑fired and the property is EPC exempt. Broadband speeds are slow and the site is in a location with a high flooding risk — buyers should commission specialist surveys and check insurance and planning implications.
Offered freehold and chain free, this is a rare rural home for someone wanting a character property with substantial living and entertaining space. It will suit a family or buyers seeking a distinctive countryside residence; however, expect ongoing maintenance, listed‑building responsibilities and potential resilience measures for flooding and services.
