An exceptional four-bedroom Grade II listed period home, dating back to circa1590, full of charm and original features. This historically significant residence holds a central position in the sought-after village of Stock and even boasts a rare Priest hole, a fascinating feature often found in prominent Catholic homes of the time.
Set within a private, mature plot of approximately 0.8 acres, the property offers a wide frontage, ample driveway parking, and a detached garage. While some areas would benefit from updating and refurbishment, the home presents outstanding potential to create something truly special. Spanning around 2,500 sq. ft., the house offers well-proportioned and balanced accommodation. There are three generous reception rooms and four double bedrooms across three floors. The ground level features a character-filled farmhouse-style kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, shower room, and two separate cloakrooms.
On the first floor, there is a spacious family bathroom and two double bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite complete with a dressing area and fitted wardrobes. The top floor provides two additional attic rooms, perfect as bedrooms, a home office, or flexible living space.
The property is accessed via a side entrance, which leads into a hallway connecting the principal reception areas. To the front of the house, the drawing room is a lovely, spacious room with a beautiful bay window and a striking inglenook fireplace. A study separates the drawing room from the cosy family room, while the dining room is easily reached from both the family room and the main hallway. At the rear, the kitchen/breakfast room exudes rustic charm, with exposed beams, plenty of natural light, and a connection to the utility area, shower room, and a further cloakroom.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a piece of local history, offering a blend of character, space, and enormous scope to personalise and modernise in a prime village location.
