Georgian splendour, wonderful views AND an all-weather tennis court.
Just three reasons to recommend this period country house.
Of course, there's many more, such as the three acres of gardens and paddocks, which include a stable block, the aforementioned tennis court and a former coach house and stable block.
The building, which has been updated and improved in recent years, can befound at the end of a small private lane on the fringes of the village.
With the accommodation spread over three floors, this Georgian rectory has four first-floor bedrooms, the master bedroom with an en suite shower room and wc, and another four bedrooms on the second floor.
The substantial kitchen/breakfast room has an two-oven Aga and includes the original black-leaded "Herald" kitchen range.
Attached is a walk-in pantry and, via another door, a boot/utility room.
Other rooms include a drawing room, sitting room, dining room, study and family bathroom and WC. A further bathroom and WC is on the second floor.
Beneath the two principal reception rooms are cellars, incorporating a wine store.
