A MOST HANDSOME FORMER VICARAGE LOCATED CLOSE TO THE CENTRE OF THIS POPULAR TOWN HAVING LANDSCAPED GARDENS AND DETACHED ANNEXE/HOME OFFICE

This handsome former Victorian vicarage occupies a delightful setting within mature, predominantly lawned gardens extending to approximately 0.38 acres, approached through gated access. The property retains a wealth of attractive period features, thoughtfully complemented by contemporary touches such as air conditioning throughtout to create a spacious and comfortable family home. A particular feature is the detached two storey annexe, offering excellent versatility for use as a gym, home office or additional accommodation.

The original solid entrance door opens into an impressive reception hall, featuring timber flooring and an elegant staircase rising to the first floor. Double Crittall style glazed doors lead through to a beautifully proportioned reception room, currently arranged as a dining area, with a tall bay window overlooking the side gardens and attractive corniced ceilings. An open archway connects to the adjoining sitting room, which enjoys a further bay window, high corniced ceilings and timber flooring, creating a wonderful sense of space and continuity between the two rooms.

Also accessed from the reception hall is a further reception room, featuring timber flooring, a bay window overlooking the rear gardens and glazed sliding doors providing direct access outside. To the rear of the house, the generously proportioned kitchen is fitted with a range of timber fronted wall and base units, complemented by attractive work surfaces and an inset Belfast sink. Beyond the kitchen is a conservatory with a pitched roof and doors opening to both the rear and side gardens. A useful additional room, suitable for use as a cloakroom or home office, provides access to a spacious utility and boot room.

On the first floor, a generous landing leads to the principal bedroom suite, comprising a spacious bedroom, separate dressing room and an ensuite shower room with a large double shower. A further double bedroom and separate cloakroom complete the accommodation on this floor.

The staircase continues to the second floor, where there are two further bedrooms, a family bathroom and useful storage within the eaves.

OUTSIDE

The property occupies a delightful setting within beautifully landscaped gardens extending to approximately 0.38 acres, which wrap around the house and provide a wonderful sense of space and privacy. Double entrance gates open onto a generous driveway, providing ample parking and turning space for several vehicles, together with access to a covered double carport with a concrete hard standing.

The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with established flower and shrub borders and a variety of mature trees, creating an attractive and peaceful setting. There are raised vegetable beds, wildlife pond and former air raid shelter all giving the garden interest throughout the seasons.

A particular feature of the property is the detached two storey annexe, thoughtfully converted from former garaging and offering considerable versatility. Currently arranged as a gymnasium on the ground floor, with an office or private retreat and useful cloakroom above, the building lends itself to a variety of alternative uses, including working from home, leisure pursuits or ancillary accommodation, subject to any necessary consents.
