Description

Located in the heart of Anstey is this fabulous home which forms part of the old schoolhouse. The old schoolhouse was originally constructed in 1874 and was sympathetically converted into residential accommodation in the 1980's. This fabulous property demands an internal viewing to fully appreciate the uniqueness of accommodation and abundance of character features. Ideal for both family living and entertaining, a most impressive original entrance door leads through to a large hallway where there is a private entrance door through to main house accommodation. On the ground floor there are three or four bedrooms, depending on how you wish to use the property, with the fourth room currently used as a home office but has the benefit of an adjoining refitted room. In addition, there is a family bathroom which has also been refitted by the present owner. On the first floor the accommodation is most impressive with a fabulous lounger diner with high vaulted ceiling and all the original arched glazing. Within this space there is a wealth of character with exposed stonework, brick work and beams. Situated off the lounge is a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and space for informal dining or breakfast table and the underside of the original bell tower is visible. Outside the property has a fully enclosed and private garden located both at the rear and side of the property. There are three timber buildings including a workshop and rear gated access to a driveway with parking for up to three vehicles. Early viewing is strongly advised to fully appreciate the individual nature of accommodation and its fabulous position in the heart of Anstey and it's proximity to the amenities virtually on the doorstep.
