Steeped in history and bursting at the seams with period character and charm, this Grade II listed residence, dating back to circa 1700, lies in the very heart of the picturesque village of Dilhorne. Believed to have once been the local Girls School, and has been lovingly restored over the past decade by the current owners, the property has been thoughtfully revived from its historic bones into a beautiful home perfectly suited to modern-day living. Arranged over three floors and cleverly divided into two parts — the main house and an adjoining annex — it offers wonderfully flexible accommodation ideal for multi-generational living.

The main house exudes period charm and individuality throughout. You’re welcomed into a spacious Sitting Room with wood block flooring, exposed beams, and an exposed brick fireplace housing a multi-fuel stove.

Completing the ground floor is an internal home Office/Games Room with an original brick workbench and a Downstairs WC.

The First Floor continues the home’s period charm with exposed brickwork, original fireplaces, and wooden floorboards. The Principal Bedroom, positioned to the front aspect, enjoys built-in wardrobes and a luxurious En-Suite Bathroom complete with a freestanding roll-top bath and separate shower. A second Double Bedroom also benefits from its own En-Suite Shower Room.

Stairs ascend to the Second Floor, where two further Double Bedrooms boast stunning vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and brick walls, alongside a generous Family Bathroom with a freestanding slipper bath and double shower.

Let's move on the the Annex! Having its own private entrance, creating the perfect independent living space. An Entrance Porch/Utility welcomes you to the property and leads into an Inner Hallway, with access to a ground floor Bathroom and a well-appointed Kitchen fitted with painted wooden units, stainless steel work surfaces, and wood block flooring. A feature wooden-panelled wall opens into a cosy Lounge complete with a multi-fuel stove set on a raised brick hearth, from which stairs rise to the First Floor. The First Floor provides a spacious landing area, ideal for a home office, and a comfortable Double Bedroom, with a further room located on the second floor ideal for a Dressing Room, Hobby Room or additional Home Office space.

Outside, the property enjoys a good-sized plot accessed via a shared driveway, leading to a private parking area for up to four vehicles. To the rear lies an enclosed, low-maintenance garden featuring a paved patio seating area and an Astroturf lawn — perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
