Property description

A detached former vicarage with six - seven bedrooms, four reception rooms, a two/three bedroom annexe, two garages and a double garage on a 2.26 acre plot in a village location.

The property has a combined 8,331 sq. ft of accommodation arranged over three floors. On the ground floor there is a reception hall, a kitchen/breakfast room, a scullery, a utility room, and cloakroom. The four reception rooms comprise an open plan sitting/dining room, a drawing room, a study, and a conservatory. On the first floor there are six double bedrooms, one currently used as a dressing room, and two family bathrooms. The second floor has another double bedroom, a shower room, and a further study. The annexe has two/three bedrooms, a bathroom, two cloakrooms, a utility room and a kitchen/dining room with two garages and a storage room below. The property is approached via a gravelled and gated driveway with off street parking for numerous vehicles leading to a detached double garage. (The property requires renovation and refurbishment, and further funds will be required to fulfil this project.)

Ground Floor

The property has an imposing entrance hall with a spindle balustrade wooden staircase rising to the first floor. The principal reception room is a triple aspect, open plan sitting and dining room with authentic sash windows, wooden flooring and two 19th-century open fireplaces. The dual aspect drawing room has similar features and there is a study and conservatory. Additionally, there is a farmhouse style kitchen, a scullery, and a utility room.

Bedrooms

There are five/six first floor double bedrooms. The dual aspect principal bedroom has a feature fireplace and currently uses bedroom two as a dressing room. Bedrooms five and six also have fireplaces. There are two three piece family bathrooms and the second floor has a double bedroom, a study and a shower room in the roof space.

Outside

The property sits within 2.26 acres of mature wooded grounds planted with established trees and shrubs. The rear and side gardens are mainly laid to lawn with patio areas, and there are flower beds at the side. Access is gained from the garden to the annexe with two garages and a storage room below. Additionally there is a detached double garage.

Situation and Schooling

The village of Padbury has a church, two public houses, a butcher, a playing field and a Church of England primary school. It is in the catchment area for the Royal Latin School in Buckingham. The nearby town of Buckingham (3 miles away), also has a range of shopping and leisure facilities, a library, and GP and dental surgeries.

Agents Note

The property is in need of renovation and refurbishment including suspected subsidence. It is not a listed building but is located within a conservation area. There is a path from the Rectory next door to the churchyard through the grounds of The Old Vicarage. This path does not belong to this property and The Rectory has a right of way.
