The four-bedroom home, which is situated in more than half an acre of gardens on the edge of the village of Bulmer, is believed to have been designed by the ecclesiastical architect Ronald Sims with timber-panelled, vaulted ceilings, exposed stone walls and stone and parquet floors.
The property, which is on the market for the first time in more than 30 years, requires some modernisation. It includes an entrance vestibule opening on to a dramatic, double height reception hall, an inner hallway, sitting room, a study/snug with domed ceiling, a semi-open-plan kitchen, day room and dining room, a guest cloakroom and utility.
There are two bedrooms on ground floor level and two on the first floor. A door on the galleried landing allows access on to the roof.
It is on the market with Cundalls for £750,000. Visit cundalls.co.uk.
