An amazing Georgian country house which has flexible living areas, landscaped gardens, far reaching views and excellent commuting links has become available on the rental market.

Approached by a long, sweeping driveway, St Pauls House is an impressive sight. Built in the 17th century, the house has an abundance of history and unique features characteristic of its period and later position as a Georgian Vicarage. Improvements in 2010 including sustainable technology and a further modern wing have made St Pauls a characterful and practical home.

A fine entrance hall leads to a well equipped kitchen opens to the dining room and a family area which has French doors to a covered loggia. Each of the formal reception rooms; the drawing room, sitting room and study, has an open fireplace with original surround, and stunning views of the surrounding grounds framed by shuttered sash windows. A stone spiral staircase at the rear connects each floor of the house and provides access to a versatile basement with boiler room and gym.
