For generations, people in Astley have wondered what lies beyond the gates of The Old Vicarage.

Some houses are simply homes. This is part of the village's history.

Dating back to 1590, The Old Vicarage is one of Astley's most iconic and recognisable residences. A remarkable Grade II* Listed home, it has long captured the imagination of local people, standing proudly behind its gates as one of the area's most admired and historically significant properties.

Occupying a beautifully private position within Astley Conservation Area, this exceptional home has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, who have acted as custodians of its rich history whilst ensuring it meets the needs of modern family life.

Extending to approximately 4,333 sq ft including the detached double garage, the accommodation is arranged over three floors and offers an abundance of space, character and versatility. From the moment you step inside, it becomes clear that this is a home unlike any other. Original features, beautiful proportions and centuries of history combine to create a warmth and atmosphere that can only be found in a property of this calibre.

The ground floor offers a collection of elegant and character-filled reception rooms, including a stunning lounge, formal dining room, charming sitting room and home office. The beautifully appointed kitchen is complemented by a boot room, utility room and cloakroom, providing practical spaces for everyday living whilst maintaining the home's timeless charm.

The first and second floors provide six generous double bedrooms, including a principal suite with dressing room, together with two beautifully presented family bathrooms. Each bedroom enjoys its own individual character, reflecting the unique history and personality of this remarkable home.

Outside, the grounds are every bit as impressive as the property itself. Mature trees, sweeping lawns, colourful planting and secluded seating areas create a peaceful and private setting that feels a world away from everyday life. A secure gated courtyard provides ample parking alongside a detached double garage. The property sits on a superb plot of approximately one-third of an acre.

Perfectly positioned within the heart of Astley, the property enjoys convenient access to highly regarded schools, local amenities, countryside walks and excellent transport links.  

Homes of this significance rarely come to market. The Old Vicarage offers a unique opportunity not only to own an extraordinary home, but to become part of the continuing story of one of Astley's most treasured landmarks.
