About this property
Attractive former School House with sprawling accommodation in popular village location This substantial and highly impressive detached Victorian former school offers a rare opportunity to acquire a home of immense charm, character and a truly special ambience. The accommodation, extending to approximately 3,500 sq ft, is predominantly arranged on one level, with the added drama of a first-floor galleried mezzanine that overlooks the magnificent former school room. This breathtaking space, now transformed into an atmospheric principal reception room, is open to the full height of the building and features a vaulted ceiling, semi-arched windows to both front and rear, and full-height glazed doors opening directly onto a paved terrace and the gardens beyond.
