A remarkable home with origins in the early 1600s, once welcoming travellers as The Old George coaching inn. Today, it stands as a beautifully restored semi-detached period property, built from warm limestone under a classic stone-slate roof, and filled with character at every turn. High ceilings, original windows with shutters, and a superb 25ft sitting room centred around a wood-burning stove create an immediate sense of charm and grandeur.
The interior has been upgraded with great care and finished in a refined, heritage-inspired palette that complements the building’s age and elegance. The layout has been designed to feel spacious, practical and inviting. The open-plan kitchen and breakfast room offers generous storage and a welcoming everyday hub, accompanied by a cloakroom. Beyond this, a formal dining room and an impressive sitting room provide excellent entertaining spaces, the latter opening into a light-soaked conservatory that frames the garden beautifully. A full-height cellar—complete with underfloor heating, a window and a utility room—offers a versatile home office or studio space.
Upstairs, the first floor hosts two generous double bedrooms, each with its own en suite. The second floor features another double bedroom, a well-sized single and a family bathroom. Both landings include built-in storage, ensuring the home remains clutter-free.
Set discreetly behind tall hedges close to the village centre, the property enjoys a peaceful and private setting. A sweeping driveway leads through the gardens to a wide gravel parking area beside the house. The professionally designed gardens are a standout feature: beautifully arranged with parterre-style box hedging, espaliered fruit trees, vibrant borders, raised kitchen-garden planters and well-tended lawns. Numerous seating areas allow you to enjoy the garden throughout the day. A collection of outbuildings—including a workshop, potting shed and greenhouse—provide excellent practicality, while a charming shepherd’s hut currently serves as a garden office. The greenhouse and shepherd’s hut may be available by separate negotiation.
