Property Description
The Old Parsonage has been remodelled over the years, providing three floors of elegant and highly versatile accommodation
There are numerous period features such as 12 and 16 pane sash windows, flagstone floors, fireplaces, exposed timbers, window shutters and traditional wooden doors and architraves, with the family kitchen and numerous bathrooms finished to a high standard, with marble and classically style fittings
The highly flexible accommodation offers a good variety of reception rooms and guest bedrooms, particularly given the conversion of the original Coach House, which links to the main house seamlessly, creating an impressive overall space, not only for family living, but also for those with dependant relatives and working from home requirements
The property is approached over a large gravelled driveway
Entering the property via stone steps to the front door with fan light, the hall has a limestone floor with adjacent doors to the drawing room and sitting room, and steps leading down to the cellar
The cosy sitting room enjoys a triple-aspect, with French doors through to the delightful walled gardens, attractive fireplace incorporating a coal effect gas fire with decorative wooden surround, marble inserts and hearth and two oak ceiling beams
The drawing room is exceptionally striking with an imposing inglenook fireplace, part exposed stone walls, oak ceiling beams and a large south-facing bay window
The inner hallway with limestone flooring, also links the original house with the former Coach House, cloakroom and the stunning bespoke shaker-style family kitchen, complete with an inglenook with stone surround incorporating an AGA with two cast-iron ovens, large twin cast-iron hotplates allow you to boil and simmer and an additional integrated module with electric top, non-assisted electric fan oven with grill and fan oven below, walk-in pantry and an excellent selection of wall and base units, with granite work surfaces, built-in dishwasher, built-in fridge, bespoke handcrafted dresser unit, central island with part laminated/granite worktops, twin breakfast bar, and flagstone flooring throughout
At the end of the hallway is the stunning garden room with folding double Gothic-style French doors into the grounds, with exposed stone walls and exposed wooden flooring, which leads through to the open-plan family room with vaulted A-frame ceilings and a feature fireplace with wrought-iron surround
Accessed off the garden room, is a small courtyard, which leads onto Church Street, enabling the house to be split into two independent living spaces, if required
Also connecting to the garden room, is a study area with part-vaulted glazed ceiling, shower room, separate utility room with built-in fridge/freezer, and a fifth reception room/second study
Leading from the hall, the staircase rises to a half landing and the main family bathroom
To the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys a dual-aspect with built-in wardrobe space, an independent dressing room with a good selection of wardrobe cupboards leading through to the en-suite shower room
From the landing there is a connecting staircase to the second floor, with two further double bedrooms, and an additional en-suite
Above the family kitchen, with its own independent staircase leading off the inner hall, is the fifth bedroom with a vaulted ceiling, large en-suite bathroom and a connecting dressing room/additional small bedroom
