A distinctive and beautifully appointed semi-detached former school house, originally built in 1874 and converted into a residence in 2003, offering approximately 3,250 sq ft (302 sq m) of spacious and highly versatile accommodation.
Set in a picturesque rural location, it enjoys sweeping panoramic countryside views and direct access to over 20 miles of scenic footpaths across surrounding National Trust land, all within walking distance of the historic Arlington Court.
This exceptional home has undergone significant recent improvements (2022–2023), including a full re-roof, rewiring, replumbing, installation of bespoke stone-mullioned double-glazed windows, new kitchen, carpets, and a stylish new ensuite bathroom.
A newly fitted log burner enhances its period character and creates a wonderful focal point to the lounge, while solar panels provide energy and generate approximately £1,500 in annual income.
Internally, the property features two reception rooms, an impressive open-plan kitchen/dining/family area with glass atrium and countryside views, a utility/boot room, and a ground-floor shower room.
There are four bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms across the upper floors, with the principal suite benefitting from vaulted ceilings, a walk-in wardrobe, and a luxurious ensuite.
The house sits within landscaped grounds of approximately one-third of an acre, with lawns, a large terrace and mature borders that fully embrace the surrounding views.
A detached double garage with loft space (offering excellent conversion potential, subject to planning) is complemented by a newly constructed three bay oak framed garage and woodstore. Ample off-road parking is available via a gated driveway.
