The Old Rectory itself offers almost 7,500 sq ft of outstanding accommodation and has been sympathetically extended to provide superb leisure facilities in addition to the extensive living accommodation. There is a wealth of period features, none less than in the imposing Hall, with its moulded plaster arch and impressive large open well moulded string staircase, with twisted balusters and panelled newels with ogee finials and pendants. Much of the original joinery within the property survives, including panelled doors, along with several fabulous marble chimneypieces.
The living accommodation itself is set around two ranges, with the symmetrical three bay, centre gabled main range to the eastern elevation comprising a Hall, Study, Drawing Room, Dining Room and Kitchen to the ground floor, with three Bedrooms, Family Bathroom and Master with Ensuite and Dressing Room to the first floor. The main range has two striking Oriel windows at first floor level to both front and rear elevations.
The former service wing, located to the western elevation, is similarly centre gabled and has been sympathetically repurposed to provide a Games Room (complete with fitted bar area), Office, Utility Room and Cloakroom to the ground floor. To the first floor there is a one-bedroom Annex comprising a Living Room, Kitchen, Bedroom and Bathroom.
The modern Leisure Wing, which comprises an opulent Swimming Pool area (with superb tiled swimming pool and separate freestanding hot tub, set under a magnificent moulded plaster ceiling), Changing Room, Sauna and separate WC. Additionally, within this wing there is a Garage with double doors to the front elevation, Plant Room and further WC.
