A quintessential Georgian rectory with grounds of approximately 4 acres together with two bedroom guest cottage and large converted 18th Century barn.

The Old Rectory is a fine Grade II listed former rectory. Largely Georgian the house was built around an earlier 17th Century core which reputedly stood on a moated site. Following the trend in archictectural styling, in 1820 the house was extended and remodelled with elegant Georgian styling to reflect the social standing of the incumbent rector. Today the house provides a fabulous family home displaying a host of attractive characteristics one would expect from a country house of this status including 3 reception rooms, large dining kitchen, laundry room, 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.. Standing in grounds 4.37 acres including formal garden, orchard and paddock, the Old Rectory benefits from the ‘Old Dairy’, a recently renovated detached two bedroom guest/staff cottage, and a large 18th Century converted barn which is a wonderful open space with adjoining kitchen and cloakroom facilities, suitable for a wide variety of uses. There is a further range of outbuildings providing garaging and storage.

Standing in well secluded mature grounds, The Old Rectory provides a wonderful degree of privacy and seclusion whilst being in the heart of the village. With the house approached over a long sweeping driveway, the formal gardens are laid partially to lawn, divided by mature hedging into various ‘rooms’ with a paved terrace abutting the south-west side of the house providing an excellent al-fresco dining area. The grounds are interspersed with a wide variety of mature trees and in addition the property offers an orchard, a landscaped vegetable garden and post and railed meadow extending to 1.75 acres

A further range of outbuildings include a double garage of brick construction, timber sheds under pitched and tiled rooflines, storage areas between the main house and The Old Dairy and a large chicken coop.

Hepworth is situated approximately 12 miles north east of the historic Cathedral town of Bury St Edmunds and the nearby villages of Barningham, Stanton and Rickinghall provide a good range of everyday amenities. The market town of Diss (approximately 10 miles distant) provides a further range of facilities together with a mainline rail link to London Liverpool Street.

The next steps...

1
Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

Once you’ve found a property you want to buy, it’s time to make an offer. A bit of negotiation is to be expected, however don't offer so little that you end up in a lengthy negotiation process, as you might lose the property altogether if someone else makes a higher bid.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.
