A considerable Grade II Listed residence with land, in the picturesque village of Martin Hussingtree
The property This handsome brick-built detached house was built for the Rector of St Michaels and All Angels church which dates from the 12th century. The current owners have lived here for over 40 years, a well loved family home. There is over 4,700 sq. ft. of well-presented, light-filled accommodation, an abundance of character features, including tall, corniced ceilings, picture rails, sash windows and exposed beams along with a 36ft x 18ft heated outdoor swimming pool.
The welcoming reception hall has a cloakroom, steps down to the large cellar and a turned stairway with barley twist balustrade rising to the first-floor level. It is filled with natural light via dual glazed doors flowing into the sizeable conservatory, with stone flooring (underfloor heating) and panoramic views of the mature garden. Further is the multi aspect 29 ft. drawing room, which enjoys a warm south-westerly aspect, far-reaching vistas across open fields and a Stovax Riva Cassette style log burner. There is also a front-facing formal dining room, alongside which is the charming kitchen. A brick arched alcove with a black inset four-oven AGA range cooker and a selection of wooden wall and base cabinetry, worksurfaces and additional appliances offers plenty of space. Completing the floor is the rear lobby opening to a pantry, workshop, laundry room and an office.
The first floor offers five very well-proportioned and elegant bedrooms. There is a dedicated dressing room and a deluxe Jack and Jill shower room with a wealth of fitted cabinets and dual sinks alongside the principal bedroom, with one further bedroom also benefitting from an en suite shower room. A family bathroom well serves the remainder, with a separate cloakroom.
