A marvellous Queen Anne period rectory, a classic example of this wonderful period of English architecture, with high ceilings and wide panelled entrance doors. There are large sash windows with original shutters, all fully renovated by the present owners, and an imposing entrance hall with its wide staircase reaching to a galleried landing.
Typical of the period are the excellent proportions of all the rooms; the elegant drawing room has an interesting bow shaped wall to one end and also a practical working fireplace fitted with a wood burning stove. This is the major and earlier part of the original Grade II listed building, which is now divided into two. A wing was added to the Rectory in the Victorian period, which is in separate ownership and entered from a different driveway.
The views are very pretty on all sides; the front of the parish church of St Peter`s, built in 1862 in the 14th century shingled style, no longer in use, and to the right, across pretty unspoilt natural farmland. The accommodation is generous, once again typical of the period and built for large family occupation. The rear hall runs the width of the property and gives entrance to a pretty servant`s staircase to the first floor, and a range of 18th century fitted cupboards. It also gives access to a charming walled courtyard.
Special features:
? The large kitchen/breakfast room comprehensively fitted with a range of handmade polished, pine panelled cupboard and drawer units and draining board with a white porcelain sink unit in keeping with the period of the property. The original fireplace is still in evidence with massive oaken beam across, now housing a modern oil- fired 2-oven Aga, and there are fine examples of original beams to the ceiling. Fittings also include an attractive island/preparation table with granite worktop. Granite and oak work surfaces. 4 ring Neff ceramic hob unit with extractor over. Neff electric oven, microwave and integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer
? The reception hall and inner halls have polished flagstone flooring, flagstones continue into the ground floor cloakroom and utility room
? There are large windows throughout, flooding the property with light
? The interior of the property has recently been redecorated to a high standard
? The family bathroom cloakroom and ensuite bathroom to the master bedroom have all been fully refitted to a high standard with a third modern fitted bathroom to the second floor
? Fine original wide planked flooring within the sitting room
