The Priory is on the market with Jackson Stops with a guide price of £1.995m. Let’s take a look around…
The Priory is approached through timber gates with a gravel driveway leading to parking and turning for several vehicles.
There are several post and rail paddocks, plus six stables, a lunge pen, and a five bay horsewalker. Planning permission has been granted for a 60x30m all-weather arena.
The extensive outbuildings formally used for garaging within a courtyard setting offer 4,450 sq. ft currently used as workshops, storage, with rubber matted horse wash bay and space previously used as a solarium, feed room, tack room and further storage. The outbuildings would be suitable for conversion (subject to planning) to form further accommodation or an indoor swimming pool/office.
The landscaped grounds are private and have good views, while the garden has well-maintained lawns, well-stocked flower and shrub beds and a pond.
The Priory dates to the mid-16th Century with subsequent extensions over the years. The property is part-timber framed, brick and rendered under a thatch and pantile roof, which has been significantly improved by the current owners.
The property retains many of its original features including exposed beams, open fireplaces, moulded Mullion window and arched roll-moulded hand and leaf carved spandrels.
This property has an open plan kitchen/dining/family room and three further reception rooms.
There are six bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms, plus a study/gym/family room.
In addition, there is a self-contained two-bedroom annexe.
