Property description
A labour of love has led to the conversion of the old school into a civic award winning four bedroom home of charisma and flexible vibrancy. The need to create a spacious family home suited to relaxed entertaining was balanced by "letting the building talk to them" and the use of local craftsmen ensured that the derelict school was transformed into a unique home of the highest standard. The retention of the original window openings and deep skirting boards has been supplemented by a bespoke kitchen, unique staircase and a hand crafted fire surround. Practicality is balanced by drama; all four bedrooms are en suite and the ground floor bedroom is ideal for a dependant relative whilst the full height lounge is best viewed by the mezzanine landing which is supported by cast iron pillars. The undoubted informal heart is the outstanding ash breakfast kitchen which leads to both the study and utility room together with the relaxing courtyard gardens which have become an additional two al fresco rooms. The generous first floor bedrooms all have en suite facilities one of which includes a cast iron roll top bath. This distinctive home is completed by reception parking and a double garage which easily cater for those inevitable guests. The Old School House - a lesson in life.
