Main House - A Blend of Heritage and Tranquillity

The Old Vicarage boasts an impressive six-bedroom, four reception room layout which is spread across two floors. The elegant proportions of this fine example of an early Victorian villa provide an abundance of living space for families and those who enjoy entertaining. Each room is thoughtfully designed with each of the primary rooms arranged to take in the far-reaching views, whilst showcasing the property’s original period features such as high ceilings, fireplaces and large windows which flood the home with natural light.

The ground floor opens with an elegant and spacious entrance hall, thoughtfully designed to connect all of the main reception rooms and to set the tone for the rest of the home. The hallway features an original parquet floor, decorative coving, and a double height picture window over the main staircase. The house has an excellent flow for entertaining with the multiple reception rooms all leading off the main entrance hall, these include:

• A sumptuous drawing room with an open fireplace, perfect for evening entertaining or simply for enjoying the panoramic views.
• A formal dining room, ideal for hosting dinner parties, offering beautiful views of the landscaped gardens.
• A large family room with double doors onto the garden. The room is fitted with a log burner, providing a peaceful space for reflection and relaxation.
• A garden room with direct access to the garden and offering close proximity to the tennis court this room would serve well as a studio or for additional entertaining space.
• Two well-proportioned studies which would be perfect for working from home.
* Garaging to accommodate at least 4 cars.

At the heart of the home is a re-fitted, contemporary kitchen with traditional Aga, ample storage and kitchen island. The adjacent boot room is very spacious and offers side access, making it a perfect addition for those with animals and anyone who enjoys long countryside walks. Alternatively, the kitchen could be extended into the boot room to suit families who are looking for large, eat-in kitchens.

First Floor – Bedrooms with Character and Views

The first floor features the Primary Suite, complete with a large bedroom, en-suite bathroom, and delightful views. The adjacent bedroom offers the potential to add a dressing room without the need for extensive re-configuration. There is a total of 5 double bedrooms, all with the proportions you would expect from a house of this period, each with charming original features such as Victorian fireplaces. These rooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.

Gardens and Grounds – An Oasis of Serenity

Set within approximately 1.5 acres of mature grounds, The Old Vicarage offers an enviable lifestyle. The beautifully maintained formal gardens feature established flower beds, manicured lawns and an abundance of mature trees which provide privacy and a sense of peaceful seclusion. The sun terrace is perfect for outdoor entertaining or simply enjoying the tranquil surroundings. While the hard surface tennis court and ha-ha add additional class to this fabulous country residence.

The property also benefits from several outbuildings, including a garage that can house up to 5 cars with significant accommodation above. This would make an ideal annexe for multi-generational living, or could serve as a large office/workshop space.

Location – Rural Charm with City Access

Hales is a charming village located near Market Drayton which offers quick and easy access to Stafford and Crewe Mainline Stations enabling travel to London Euston in just over 1 hour.
