Distinguished Grade II Listed Former Vicarage in Half an Acre of Walled Grounds

Nestled in the heart of Moulton village, Church Hill House is an elegant former vicarage of architectural and historical significance, recognised with Grade II listing. Built in 1737 from attractive stone beneath a slate roof, this handsome Georgian home combines period grandeur with well-planned family accommodation.

History & Heritage
Owned by the Church until 1984, the property has since been in the care of the same family for over forty years. Over time, sympathetic extensions have enhanced the original design, while fine period details remain throughout — including tall sash windows, ornate cornicing, decorative archways, dado rails, fireplaces, and the rare feature of two staircases.

Accommodation
A welcoming reception hall with cloakroom sets the tone, leading to a private study. The main reception rooms are light and elegant:

The sitting room enjoys a dual aspect, high ceilings, ornate detailing and a Victorian-style fireplace.
The drawing room is filled with natural light from its tall Georgian sash window overlooking the gardens.
The dining room flows into a traditional country kitchen, fitted with units and centred around a gas-fired twin-plate Aga.
Adjoining the kitchen are a spacious utility room with garden access, a hobby room, cellar, and a practical secondary staircase.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom offers fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom. Four further double bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, separate shower room, and additional cloakroom.

Grounds & Setting
The property stands within beautifully landscaped and walled gardens of around 0.53 acres. Sweeping lawns, mature trees and well-stocked borders provide privacy and a tranquil atmosphere. Timber and glass outbuildings are included, while a gravel driveway gives access to a double garage and ample parking, secured by timber gates.

Location
Moulton is a thriving village with excellent day-to-day amenities, including schools, shops, pubs and a parish church. Northampton (4 miles) and Wellingborough (7 miles) both provide mainline rail services to London in under an hour, while Junction 15 of the M1 lies just 8 miles away. Leisure opportunities are close at hand, with Pitsford Reservoir and Sywell Country Park offering fishing, sailing, and scenic walks.
