Property Description
The Old Vicarage has most handsome mellow brick and tile hung elevations under a part slate, part clay tiled roof with mainly large sliding sash windows allowing much light in and fine views out. Although dating in part to the Tudor period, the house is mainly late Georgian and early Victorian with the typical characteristics of the era. These include elegant proportions, good ceiling heights, panelled doors and decorative cornicing, and there are period fireplace surrounds in many rooms.
The house is approached from the front drive to the hall. This leads to the study to right, the cloakroom and cellar. The 3 main reception rooms all face south overlooking the gardens, each with its own individual character. The sitting room opens to a triple aspect sun room. The spacious kitchen breakfast room is traditionally fitted with painted cabinets, and has a Stanley range cooker. The utility room next door opens to the rear drive.
The staircase with, with mahogany handrail and decorative wrought iron balusters rises to the first floor, the 3 principle bedrooms face south, East and west. With the remaining 4 bedrooms all still a good size. Every room has a good view over the gardens or surrounding countryside.
Bathrooms complete the accommodation.
