5 Bed Detached - Offers in Region of £925,000 - Under Offer

The Old Village School is a beautiful historic building which was built in 1837 and then extended in 1870. The property closed as a school in the 1970s, was derelict for several years and was converted into this beautiful home in 1995. The fabulous stone building offers the combination of great character with a modern cavity wall conversion providing a good energy rating C. The house is set is an attractive location on the edge of this prime village with open countryside views to the rear and opposite Pendleton All Saints Church.

The property has been lovingly converted by its current owner and offers spacious family-sized accommodation with the original studded front door leading to a large feature entrance hall with stone flag floors and a central handmade ash staircase. Beautiful hardwood double doors with bevelled edged glass lead to both front receptions rooms. At the rear there is a dining kitchen with AGA, double height vaulted ceiling with beams and open countryside views. The ground floor also has a double bedroom which is currently used as a study, 3-piece bathroom, utility room and 2-piece cloakroom. Upstairs the ash staircase leads to a large split-level landing with storage, four bedrooms, one with en-suite and a w.c. off the landing. Outside, there is a stone boundary wall surrounding the lawned front garden, a gravelled driveway providing ample parking and a large detached triple garage with three separate electric up-and-over doors. The garage offers excellent development potential for further accommodation subject to the relevant planning permissions. There is a side stone patio area, greenhouse and the rear boundary adjoins open farmland.

Leave the A59 to Pendleton and proceed through the centre of the village passing the Swan with Two Necks on the left hand side. Proceed straight on up the hill and round the left hand bend and The Old Village School is on the left hand side opposite the church.
