LOT 2 - THE DOWER HOUSE - ABOUT 6.57 ACRES - GUIDE PRICE £1,500,000
Approached over the main drive, and set in over 6.5 acres of gardens overlooking the Devil's Brook, the Grade II listed Dower House, formally the Old Rectory for the Church next door, is a wonderful house in its own right. Of stone and flint under a tile roof with stone mullion windows and leaded lights, the house comprises on the ground floor 3 reception rooms, a cloakroom WC, kitchen and boiler room; on the first floor 3 bedrooms and the second floor a further bedroom, bathroom and attic storage. The Dower House is currently used as offices and will require modernisation and the relevant planning consents to be returned to a private residence. Linked to the house is a charming Coach House with garage bay and former stables, and provide enormous potential for incorporation into the ground floor living area subject to the usual planning and listed consents. Nearby is a Old School Building.
