    About this property

    • The accommodation is particularly appealing, with well-proportioned rooms, high ceilings, sash windows with shutters, and a wealth of period fireplaces throughout. The layout flows beautifully from the entrance hall and conservatory, which provide access to five elegant reception rooms and the kitchen/breakfast room. The Aga kitchen is fitted with bespoke base and wall units, an island, and French doors opening onto a delightful walled courtyard. Beyond lie the service areas, including two utility rooms, a larder, cloakroom, and boot room, as well as access to extensive cellars below.

      The drawing room, sitting room, and dining room each feature open fireplaces, sash windows, and views across the south-facing gardens. The sitting room’s bay window opens directly onto the terrace—perfect for al fresco entertaining.

      An impressive staircase rises to a generous first-floor landing. The principal bedroom suite enjoys garden views to the south and includes air conditioning, a large en suite bathroom and dressing room. There are five further bedrooms and three additional bath/shower rooms, two of which are en suite.

      Outside
      The Old Rectory is approached through electric gates and along a private drive that culminates in a sweeping parking area beside the detached double garage and carport with a wood store to one side and a machinery store to the other.

      The beautifully landscaped gardens surround the house, with sweeping lawns, mature trees, and a terrace off the sitting room framed by parterre box hedging.

      A kitchen garden features raised beds, a greenhouse, and fruit cages, while the orchard is planted with apple, damson, and plum trees and includes a charming summer house as well as an old chapel folly.

      Along the eastern boundary, a walled courtyard provides a sheltered entertaining space with a swimming pool (heated via an air source heat pump), a pool house, and a superbly appointed separate studio/office.

      A covered bbq area has been created alongside the studio.
