A distinguished Grade II listed Georgian house set in about 1.1 acres of private walled gardens, offering five bedrooms and four reception rooms across c.4,531 sq ft. The Old Vicarage combines original period features — high ceilings, sash windows, shutters and multiple feature fireplaces — with carefully chosen, elegant décor and contemporary comforts including a ground-source heat pump and underfloor heating.
The layout suits a family seeking formal and informal living: double-aspect drawing room with French doors to a west-facing terrace, formal dining room, bespoke oak kitchen with breakfast room, plus a study with fitted cabinetry and direct access to the driveway. The principal bedroom has built-in wardrobes and an ensuite; another bedroom benefits from an ensuite and sauna, giving flexible sleeping and hobby spaces.
Externally the grounds are a major asset: double gated gravel driveway, two double garages, outbuilding and extensive, mature gardens with clipped hedging, fruit trees, traditional rose beds, a hidden kitchen garden and an all‑weather tennis court. The property’s village setting between the parish church and open countryside provides seclusion, excellent mobile signal and very low crime — attractive for families and those seeking rural privacy.
Notable considerations: the listed status protects the building’s character but will restrict alterations and can complicate maintenance and permissions. Council tax is described as quite expensive and tenure is unspecified, which should be clarified. Broadband speeds are average in the village; while heating is efficient, servicing listed fabric and large grounds will require ongoing upkeep.
