Bursting with charm, this stone cottage has been restored and improved by the current owners to an exacting standard and is located just a short walk from the centre of the historic market town of Oundle. There are features such as exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace, meticulous stonework, bespoke cabinetry and an impressive garden with excellent entertaining and lounging areas. We truly believe this is a very rare find within the town.
THE PROPERTY
As soon as you enter the property, you are met by a charming feel and an abundance of character.
As with the entirety of the property, the kitchen has been completely remodelled with bespoke cabinetry and considered fittings and appliances. There is a surprising amount of unit space which is topped with woodblock work surfaces and a cleverly incorporated breakfast bar.
Beside the kitchen, the dual aspect living room is bursting with period features such as exposed beams, and a spectacular inglenook fireplace complete with a functional woodburning stove.
The first floor is a particularly versatile space. The principal bedroom is a generous double which has plenty of character and benefits from bespoke fitted wardrobes and views over the rear garden, with the second being another good-sized single bedroom with continued features. Formerly used as a bedroom, the third room is currently conveniently arranged as a home office. Also on the first floor is a remodelled and tastefully specified shower room with an oversized shower enclosure.
OUTSIDE
A showpiece cottage garden that wouldn’t look out of place at The Chelsea Flower Show, measuring roughly 70ft in length. With a notable level of privacy and positioned at the furthermost point of the garden is an area which has been created for alfresco dining, entertaining and lounging, with a summerhouse and a covered outdoor kitchen.
LOCATION
The property forms part of a quaint run of cottages, all of which being of limestone construction under Collyweston slate, making for a quintessentially English country feel. At either end of the road are The River Nene and it’s neighbouring countryside and the thriving town centre of Oundle.
Oundle has a vibrant community feel and is well equipped with schools, services, independent shops and restaurants and one of the finest churches in the region. The home of a weekly market and monthly farmers’ market, it is the setting for many festivals throughout the year. Oundle School traces its history to its foundation in 1556 by the Lord Mayor of London. Today, many facilities are shared with the town - including a sports centre with a 50-metre swimming pool, an art gallery and the Stahl theatre/cinema/concert venue.
