Description

AN EXCEPTIONAL GRADE II LISTED GEORGIAN COUNTRY HOME – OVER 5,200 SQ FT OF BEAUTIFULLY APPOINTED ACCOMMODATION, SET IN AN ELEVATED RURAL POSITION WITH FAR-REACHING VIEWS. Horton Vicarage is a truly distinguished Grade II Listed Georgian residence, set within the Conservation Area of the village of Horton, combining more than 270 years of history with the space, comfort and versatility demanded of a modern family home. Extending to approximately 5,211 sq ft, this remarkable six-bedroom property occupies an elevated position within the picturesque rural village, enjoying mature gardens, wonderful countryside views and an exceptional degree of peace and privacy.Behind its handsome period façade lies accommodation of impressive scale and character. Elegant reception rooms rich in original detail sit comfortably alongside a superb contemporary breakfast kitchen – the heart of the house and a wonderful space for family life and entertaining – while six generous bedrooms, three en-suite facilities and extensive ancillary accommodation provide considerable flexibility.A particularly unusual feature is the substantial office and boardroom suite positioned above the double garage. With fibre broadband and its own distinct character, it provides an outstanding environment from which to work from home and may also offer scope for alternative uses, subject to any necessary consents.Outside, established gardens wrap around the house, complemented by a large westerly-facing courtyard terrace and lawns adjoining open countryside – creating a setting every bit as impressive as the house itself.Despite its wonderfully rural atmosphere, Horton is conveniently placed for Leek, Macclesfield, Stoke-on-Trent and the wider road network, with the Peak District and Rudyard Lake also readily accessible. Horton Vicarage is not simply a substantial period house; it is a home of genuine individuality – combining architectural character, exceptional proportions, flexible working space and a beautiful Staffordshire Moorlands setting.
