Description
A historical Grade II-listed former vicarage set within 2.5 acres on the northern edge of sought-after Bussage.
In a lofty position within the large village of Old Bussage, this characterful former vicarage dates back to the early 18th century and offers masses of original features. The semi-detached home is Grade II listed and was extended substantially in 1854 by G F Bodley perhaps the first domestic work of the Gothic Revival era's most influential architect before being separated into two dwellings. Now updated for the modern day, the charming property offers light, airy and generously proportioned accommodation over four floors, with the added benefit of a detached outbuilding which is currently mid-renovation and offers great potential for a number of different uses. The refurbishment of the main house has included asbestos removal, rewiring and replumbing and adding a new kitchen and bathrooms.
The interiors are elegantly appointed and sympathetic to the age and original character features of the main home, which include an arched oak front door, stone fireplaces, wood and tiled floors and exposed beams.
The accommodation comprises an attractive vestibule leading to an internal hallway with doors to a large sitting room and dining room, a kitchen, coats area and cloakroom with WC, as well as a staircase leading down to the cellar. On the first floor there are three bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms (one en suite), with a further two bedrooms in the attic conversion.
Outside
Old Glebe House is set within mature gardens of about 2.5 acres, including paddocks, lawns, woodland, a vegetable plot with raised planters and formal landscaped areas that are the ideal place for alfresco entertaining, particularly the newly-installed terrace which is a sun trap in the warmer months. Within the garden there is a converted coach house which would make a great playroom or home office, with an adjoining lean-to wood store or covered seating area, and a separate brick-built storage shed. The driveway leading to the house is shared by the adjoining property, The Old Vicarage, with each house having its own private parking area.
