The Old School
The Old School stands handsomely in a substantial plot of 0.76 acres and is now in need of complete refurbishment throughout. Full of potential to renovate and bring back to its former glory, this impressive family home offers excellently-sized accommodation and is located on the edge of the village, overlooking open countryside.
Externally, the double garage and workshop, along with the two stables, offer further flexibility.
Accommodation
The entrance vestibule has windows to the front and side with plenty of space to store coats and shoes. A step up from the entrance hall take you through to the sitting room: a large, welcoming area with exposed floorboards, a fireplace with stove and three windows overlooking the gardens.
From the sitting room, a door takes you through to a wonderful living or dining room which is flooded with light from dual aspect windows and has exposed floorboards, access to both the conservatory and the kitchen and a staircase to the first floor with a storage cupboard underneath.
The family kitchen is again an impressive size but is now in need of some attention. It overlooks the front gardens and features a range of units and a central island with granite worktops. A doorway from here takes you through to the rear lobby, with onward access to the utility room and out to the driveway and gardens.
The substantial conservatory has double doors out to the gardens.
The first-floor landing provides access to four double bedrooms with both the front and rear having potential as master bedrooms, dependant on your preference. The two family bathrooms are accessed from opposite ends of the landing with the rear bathroom offering potential to be incorporated into a luxurious master suite.
Externally
Access to the property is via double gates which open up to a large, gravelled driveway providing plenty of parking and a turning space.
The substantial gardens back onto open farmland and include a raised patio area. Currently overgrown, they offer those with green fingers the opportunity to create a gardener s dream, wrapping around the whole property as a complete blank canvas.
Stables
A detached timber stable block provides two stables with power.
Garage and Parking
Incorporated within the double garage, there is a workshop with a courtesy door.
