This beautifully presented three-bedroom, stone cottage in the sought after village of Staverton is full of character with exposed stone walls, wooden beams and an impressive inglenook fireplace, it also offers a stylish modern kitchen, updated bathroom, a landscaped low-maintenance garden, blending period charm with modern contemporary living.

This is one of those homes that strikes a fantastic balance between character and modern living. From the outside, it has all the charm you would hope for from a character stone cottage, while inside it has been thoughtfully updated to create a home that's ready to move straight into.

Staverton remains one of the area's most desirable villages, appreciated for its peaceful surroundings, attractive stone properties and strong sense of community. Surrounded by beautiful Northamptonshire countryside, it offers a slower pace of life whilst remaining conveniently placed for Daventry and the wider road network.

Offering approximately 1,173 Sq. ft of accommodation, this deceptively spacious cottage has been extended over the years to create a layout that works exceptionally well for modern family life whilst retaining many of the original features that give the property its character.

The Lounge is undoubtedly a standout space. Exposed stonework, original beams and an impressive Inglenook fireplace housing a wood burning stove immediately draws your attention, creating a room that feels warm, and welcoming. A window seat overlooking the front adds another lovely period touch.

Across the hall is a separate dining room, providing flexibility depending on how you choose to live - whether it's a snug, playroom or home office, it's a useful additional reception room.

The dining room links beautifully with the rest of the ground floor and features another wood burning stove, exposed beams and bespoke window seating, making it an ideal space for family meals or entertaining friends.

To the rear, the extension has transformed the kitchen into a stylish and practical space. Fitted with a modern shaker-style kitchen, a traditional Belfast sink, a quality range cooker, integrated appliances, and generous worktop space, it beautifully combines the character and charm of the cottage with everything expected for modern-day living.

A couple of steps in the rear lobby lead you to bi-folding doors which open directly onto the garden patio area, allowing plenty of natural light to flood in and creating an easy connection between inside and out.

One of the most practical improvements is the addition of a separate utility room and recently installed ground-floor cloakroom - features that make everyday family life that little bit easier.

Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms, with the spacious main bedroom featuring Sharps fitted wardrobes and attractive exposed ceiling beams that continue the cottage's character and charm. Bedroom two also benefits from fitted Sharps wardrobes, providing excellent storage. The recently refitted family bathroom has been finished to a high standard and features a contemporary suite comprising a walk-in wet room-style shower and a luxurious Jacuzzi bath.

Throughout the property, the current owners have modernised the home whilst carefully preserving the character that makes period cottages so appealing. From exposed beams and stonework to contemporary finishes, it feels both stylish and comfortable.

Further practical benefits include double glazing and gas central heating, providing improved energy efficiency and comfort while the ornate steel radiators complement the property's period character.

Outside, the rear low maintenance garden has been designed to be attractive whilst remaining easy to maintain. Stone retaining walls and established planting help the garden feel mature and private, with a generous fake lawn providing space for children to play or for summer entertaining. A substantial timber shed offers useful storage or workshop potential.

As you would expect with a character cottage of this era, the property does not have allocated parking. On street parking is available immediately outside the house, which is typical for many of the older cottages within the village. There is also a right of access to the rear of the property which is through one of the neighbouring properties which the sellers have used on a number of occasions.

Staverton is one of Northamptonshire's most desirable villages, offering a peaceful setting surrounded by open countryside while remaining just a few minutes from Daventry.
