The building sat empty for a few years and was converted into a home in the early 1990s. During that renovation a swimming pool was added, although this has not been put into use by the current vendor. A further large room was also turned into a gallery. There are many opportunities to reconfigure the accommodation if required, and even creating annexe accommodation within the current buildings, subject to necessary planning permissions. The front door opens into the entrance porch and through into the hall where some of the original school coat hooks have been retained. The sitting room is part of the original open school room and sits on the south side of the house, this is a lovely light filled L-shaped room with an open fireplace. With west and south aspect, it benefits from wonderful views out over the farmland behind. There is a vaulted dining room on the east end of the building that retains the original school room ceiling hight, this is another wonderfully light room, with southerly views and the tall schoolhouse windows which have been replaced on the east aspect with double glazed units. The kitchen leads off this dining room, in the site of the original school kitchen and beyond this there is a useful utility room and a large sunroom with tiled flooring. This room has French doors that open onto a large walled south facing courtyard garden. This garden has wooden decking which needs replacing; however, it could become a lovely sheltered outside space if it were paved or landscaped. There are two double bedrooms on the ground floor, one with an ensuite shower room, and there is also a family bathroom. Taking the stairs to the first floor, there is a large family room/bedroom with fabulous far reaching countryside views and galleried windows on either end overlooking the dining and sitting rooms. The main bedroom has an ensuite cloakroom and a freestanding claw foot bath in the bedroom. __________ AUXILERY BUILDINGS The covered swimming pool sits adjacent to the sunroom, although it has not been used for some years and the original pool heating and filtration will likely need replacing. There is a small studio and a further extremely large gallery building that lead off this pool area. This is all existing infrastructure and therefore offers many possibilities of use. __________ OUTSIDE The property sits well back from the quiet village road, behind the original iron railings and school gates. The driveway is gravelled and provides plenty of space for parking several cars. To your left is a large garage with up and over doors, this is also where the boiler room is located with the gas fired boiler. The garage is linked to the sunroom. To the front of the house there are areas of lawn with established trees and there is a further bricked outbuilding. Whilst this house is certainly not conventional, it has been a family home for many years, and it offers so many possibilities to put your own stamp on it.
