Property description
A rare chance to purchase a fine stone built detached period house in the centre of the village. The Old School dates back to its origins in 1865 when it was built as a local school but was converted for residential use in the 1970s. It really is a most attractive building with very tall windows and a charming exterior plus a quirky unique internal layout. The current owner has enjoyed The Old School for over twenty years and has made many quality improvements such as re roofing, sympathetic double glazing, new oil boiler, wood burning stove, fitted kitchen and utility, and new bathrooms to name a few. The result is a bright and modern light filled home whilst retaining the character and special features.
The ground floor has a large study, a dining hall, a pretty double aspect feature living room with exposed stone fireplace, semi vaulted ceiling and lovely tall windows.
Fitted kitchen with some integrated appliances, adjacent utility/breakfast area both with Karndean flooring, both overlooking the rear gardens. There is also a wet room shower with a state of the art automated Sharck Duravit WC.
On the first floor the split level open stairs divide off in four directions to three bedrooms and family bathroom. The rooms have been carefully planned to utilise maximal natural light.
Outside the frontage provides an enclosed private lawn with mature flowering shrubs and specimen trees with the large drive to one side bordering the house. To the rear there is a detached double garage with side door. The wide landscaped easterly facing rear garden is enclosed by low stone walling allowing wide rural panoramic views. Large paved patio and a summerhouse. Plenty of space for al fresco entertaining.
