Description
Parsonage House was apparently originally built as a two storey Rectory for the Parish of Begelly during the 19th Century (c.1842). However, we understand that a few years later an additional floor was added following complaints from the Vicar that he could not see the Church from the Rectory!
The house has about 20 rooms and has been gracefully restored in recent years retaining beautiful features including the staircase, fireplaces and ornamental ceilings etc.
Parsonage House would be ideal as a family home, perhaps one of say three or more generations. However, subject to consent, it has possibilities as a Country Hotel, a Residential Care Home or conversion into Apartments - indeed the Top Floor was previously a self-contained Flat. Furthermore, there may be future potential in respect of development of at least part of the Grounds (stp - subject to planning). Parsonage House is not a Listed Building.
