A substantial former schoolhouse, The Old School has been sensitively renovated to combine original 1870s character with a large contemporary extension. The L-shaped open-plan kitchen, dining and living space features floor-to-ceiling glazing and sliding/French doors that frame private gardens and open field views — ideal for family entertaining and everyday life. The property extends to about 0.28 acre and offers more than 4,000 sqft of flexible accommodation.
Accommodation is arranged over multiple levels to suit family living and working from home. The principal suite enjoys a dressing room, four-piece ensuite and picture windows overlooking the countryside; a guest bedroom has its own ensuite and there are three further bedrooms, a games room, study and separate sitting room with open fire. The newly created lounge (currently used as a gym) benefits from underfloor heating and direct patio access.
Practical strengths include a large utility, cloakroom, substantial driveway parking for several cars, an oversized single garage and concealed oil tank. Major services and infrastructure were renewed during the renovation: new heating systems, electrics and water provisions have been installed, with pipework positioned to allow straightforward conversion of another landing bedroom into an ensuite if required.
Points to note: Council Tax is Band G, reflecting the size and running costs of the house. The property sits on the village edge in a semi‑rural location with average mobile reception; broadband is fast via full‑fibre. Prospective buyers should review the specifics of the heating and fuel mix (air source heat pump, underfloor heating, oil backup) to understand operating costs and arrangements.
