DESCRIPTION
Holy Trinity Rectory is a handsome substantial, semi-detached house built in the 1800s. Holy Trinity Rectory was originally part of a larger property and subsequently subdivided to form the current configuration. The rooms are bright and airy with elegant ceiling heights and large, sash and case windows throughout. Most of the windows also benefit from shutters (not tested). The accommodation is laid out on two floors and benefits from a partially floored attic which provides scope for developing further with the appropriate permissions.
The property offers flexible accommodation on the ground floor where the rooms are adaptable. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a good range of floor and wall based units and the utility room next doors offers a great space for laundry and outdoor clothing. The pretty drawing room is dual aspect and there is also a useful family room/study. A very fine stair case, possibly the original, leads to the first floor where there are 5 bedrooms and the family bathroom.
Like many older house, there is useful storage throughout the house.
