A striking Grade II listed Victorian former school house set in the picturesque village of Blymhill. The house combines original period features — exposed beams, gothic doorway, stonework — with contemporary finishes, offering flexible family living across well-proportioned rooms and versatile ground-floor space that can double as a snug or guest bedroom.
The heart of the home is a large cottage-style entertainment kitchen with granite surfaces, a central island and a log burner, alongside a formal dining room and useful butler’s pantry/study. Three generous first-floor bedrooms and a master with vaulted ceiling provide calm family accommodation; there is a single family bathroom on the first floor and a ground-floor guest WC.
Outside are meticulously landscaped, private gardens with mature planting and several seating areas, plus a large gated off-street parking area with scope for a detached garage subject to planning. Practical details: freehold tenure, oil-fired boiler, Grade II listing (works and alterations will be restricted), and one main family bathroom.
This property suits a buyer looking for a characterful family home in a quiet village setting who is comfortable with the constraints and maintenance responsibilities of a listed period property. Fast broadband, low local crime, nearby schools and straightforward road links make this an appealing rural family choice.
