Believed to date back to the 1800s, this truly unique property stands proudly in the heart of Ripley Village.

This quintessentially English residence, in need of full modernisation, occupies a private south facing setting while enjoying all the charm and convenience of village life.

The accommodation has been arranged to maximise views across the rear garden, with an abundance of sash windows and characterful period features throughout.

The five generous reception rooms are brimming with charm and offer exceptional versatility for both family living and formal entertaining.

Beyond the kitchen is additional ground-floor accommodation, currently utilised as a utility room. A rear door from the family area connects the indoor and outdoor spaces.

From the sitting room, a staircase rises to the first floor, where there is a large bathroom and a principal bedroom which enjoys views across the substantial rear garden.

A second staircase is inaccessible, but provides access to four further bedrooms, creating a potentially flexible and characterful layout.
