The Old Rectory is a charming, detached period residence in an idyllic rural location with pretty gardens and an adjoining 2.9 acre field. KEY FEATURES The property has undergone some recent modernisation but would benefit from further renovations to restore it’s former glory. Approached via a picturesque country lane, passing the local church, this attractive period property has a charming front garden with mature trees, shrubs and wildflowers. The driveway leads up to the side of the property and provides ample space for parking. A pretty stained-glass window is featured above the front door, which opens into a spacious hallway. A light and generously sized reception room leads off the hallway and enjoys a wealth of character, with high ceilings, dual aspect windows and a large brick fireplace. The dining room is another sizable room, again with high ceilings, shutters and a large brick fireplace with wood burner. The picture window to the front makes the most of the rural outlook.

At the rear of the kitchen is a useful boot room with a door to the rear courtyards and a door to the adjoining storage room. From the inner hallway, the staircase leads to a half landing, providing access to a bathroom and a separate shower room. Natural light floods this space from a large and impressive stained-glass window. The first-floor landing leads to three light and spacious double bedrooms and a fourth single bedroom, all of which enjoy beautiful rural views. Also located on this floor is the charming country style bathroom with exposed beams and a bath located in the centre of the room. There is also a curved corner shower enclosure. The back door opens into a courtyard with a garage, stable and storeroom in need of repair, but could be reinstated if required, or perhaps converted into a garage or workshop.
