Steeped in history and full of character, The Old Nunnery is a truly special property offering a rare combination of period elegance, flexible space, and future potential. Dating back over 400 years and Grade II listed, this magnificent home has been beautifully restored by its current owner, with support from English Heritage to preserve its original charm.
Spread over three spacious floors and measuring approximately 6,932 sq ft, the property includes nine bedrooms, four bathrooms, and four reception rooms, with a further kitchen on the second floor. Every corner of this home tells a story—from the ornate coving, to the fabulous fireplaces and stunning original staircase.
The ground floor alone offers more than 2,000 sq ft, providing plenty of space for family life or entertaining. Downstairs, the vast brick-arched cellars span the footprint of the house and offer incredible storage—or potential for creative use.
Outside, you’ll find mature gardens to both the front and rear, along with a grand gated driveway and generous off-road parking.
Whether you’re a growing family, a buyer looking to run a business from home, or someone with an eye for development (subject to planning), this is a unique opportunity to own a landmark property with real substance and style.
