Constructed in a conventional Georgian style, 'Chartham' is a 5 bedroom stone-built former vicarage in the Rutland Village of Ryhall. The property dates back to the 1870s (despite its façade) and boasts generous accommodation brimming with interesting period features all set within a secluded plot with a southerly aspect looking into the 0.5 acre gardens with ample lawned areas as well as mature borders, trees and shrubs.

The house is located in the centre of the village, with amenities on the doorstep which include a post office/village shop, library, two public houses, a primary school, sports facilities (including tennis and bowls clubs) as well as direct road links to Stamford, 2 miles to the south, and Bourne, 8 miles north.
Upon entering the property you cannot help but notice the period features including the impressively high ceilings and stylish deep skirtings. At the core of the property is the beautiful flagstone hallway leading to all the various reception rooms on the ground floor. At the front is a dining room with feature fireplace and a bay window, then facing south onto the private garden is the drawing room and next door, a further family room. Both these rooms are detailed with floor to ceiling sash windows, giving access to the sun terrace, original shutters and one with a log burner and one with a decorative open fireplace. The family room flows through to the re-fitted kitchen with gas-fuelled AGA, integrated dishwasher, wooden shaker units, breakfast bar and space for a small table. The kitchen also leads through to a pantry and utility area with space for further appliances. Finally on the ground floor is a rear lobby, boot room and cloakroom as well as a dual-aspect study room off.
Moving to the first floor, an impressive Victorian sweeping staircase leads to the landing area, with an era-typical stained glass ceiling sky light over and large hanging lantern light fitting centrally. Off the landing are the 4 double bedrooms, all tastefully decorated and boasting similar features to the ground floor with high ceilings and sliding sash windows. 3 of the 4 bedrooms benefit from integrated storage and the master with a Jack-and-Jill 5-piece bathroom with double basins, toilet, roll-top bathtub and shower cubicle. There is a further shower room off the landing with basin and toilet.
Moving up again the stairs to the second floor lead to a small landing area with wardrobe and doorway through to the 5th bedroom and its En-suite shower room. There is ample, easily accessible storage in the eaves of the property.
Externally there is a gravel driveway with 5-bar gate at the entrance and turning circle around an ancient mulberry tree, a double car port and further secure single garage for storage. The enclosed mature gardens wraps around the house to provide south facing patio, two lawned areas with deep beds and a variety of established trees including weeping beech, yew and horse chestnut. Must be viewed to appreciate this unique opportunity to rent a really special home.
