Description
Seven-bedroom Rectory PACKED with character
• A secluded oasis of tranquillity in over an acre of landscaped gardens and woodland, close to the Norman St James’ church (decommissioned), yet only a 5-minute drive from the centre of Telford – or a 30-minute walk through Town Park
• Solid Edwardian and Victorian walls keep the interior cool in summer and cosy in winter whilst the kitchen, bathrooms and utility room are all modernised.
• Walking through a glazed porch, you enter the bright and airy Victorian hallway with original Jackfield floor tiles. The four reception rooms all have high ceilings and large windows, adorned with features such as two 18th century marble fireplaces, an imposing Inglenook, two multi-fuel stoves, parquet flooring and original exposed beams
• The kitchen accommodates a breakfast table, and benefits from ample storage and an adjacent pantry. Triple-glazed doors lead onto a private south-facing patio
• Downstairs double bedroom is designed accessible (currently used as a games room), with accessible shower room. Also a boiler room, cloakroom and stairs down to the cellar
Upstairs
• Off the landing are two spacious en-suite bedrooms, the master bedroom with a Victorian fireplace, plus space for a super-king bed and a sofa. Two further garden-facing double bedrooms have exposed beams, and the third has a dual aspect. One with an en-suite. Additionally, there are two family bathrooms, study, linen cupboard and cloakroom.
• There are two further double bedrooms on the second floor
Outside
• The property is approached through an impressive brick-built gateway, along a sweeping gravel drive to parking for several cars. Both the detached brick-built double garage and workshop have power. There is a also a log store, and an EV charger installed
• The gardens boast over 50 mature trees, shrubs, flowerbeds, raspberries, currants, fruit trees, a playhouse, swing, and shed
