A WARM WELCOME .
Dreaming of country living, viaduct views and a separate home office? Make the dream reality, at Maple Cottage in Harringworth. A characterful home lovingly extended over time to accommodate the ultimate in family living.
A SENSE OF ARRIVAL .
Pull up through the electric gates onto the gravel driveway alongside a large, detached timber garage, dappled in mature trees.
A home steeped in local history, Maple Cottage formerly served as stables to the adjacent School House. Follow the path to the front door and step inside. Freshen up in the handy cloakroom, before emerging onto the oak floor of the welcoming entrance hallway and make your way into the hub of the home.
CULINARY HUB .
The country-style kitchen diner features a central island at its heart, topped in Quartz providing plenty of preparation space, contrasting with the fresh tones of the comforting newly-installed electric Aga.
Soak up views through the large window, framing vistas over the garden and out to the nearby paddock. A must-have for all busy homes, the separate scullery offers further handy storage space for all your essentials. A door from the kitchen tempts you outside to dine on the Indian Stone paved terrace where you can bask in these blissful views watching the sun set behind the iconic viaduct.
RELAX AND UNWIND .
The family-friendly flow of the home continues into the characterful sitting room. Setting the welcoming scene is a grandly-sized stone inglenook fireplace with log burner inset upon a stone hearth, imbuing the room with warmth. A reclaimed railway sleeper lintel harmonises with the sturdy beam overhead.
FORMAL FEASTING .
Wood panelled walls add a sense of formality to the large dining room. Supremely spacious and ideal for summer entertaining, slide open the doors and dine al fresco beneath the wisteria festooned pergola.
WORK-HOME BALANCE .
Outside, following the terrace around, a separate door opens to a bright and spacious home office. Perfectly private and distinct from the main home enabling you to separate work and home life. The possibilities for this adaptable space are endless; could it be your much longed-for home-gym, family games room, artist studio or even an annexe?
BALCONY BLISS .
From the entrance hallway, ascend the split-level staircase, arriving at the first-floor landing. Seek sanctuary in the first spacious double bedroom directly ahead, the highlight of which is a rear balcony, accessed by French double doors, whose unbroken views above the secure and stylish iron balustrades frame sunsets over the neighbouring paddock and countryside.
FULL STEAM AHEAD .
A spa-style sanctuary can be found in the shower room with the added luxury of a sauna room coated in marble tones.
SWEET DREAMS .
From the landing, step down into a further double bedroom passing the handy built-in wardrobes. Throw open the doors of the Juliet balcony and breathe in the invigorating morning air before freshening up in the modern en suite bathroom. Arrive next at a double en suite bedroom overlooking the pretty front garden. A home with one final surprise in store, take a second set of stairs up to the converted loft currently hosting two further bedrooms, one with an en suite bathroom. Why not seclude yourself from the hubbub of the home and dedicate this entire floor to a sumptuous principal suite with countryside views?
SHELTER & SHADE .
Time now to discover the gardens stepping out from the dining room onto the Indian Stone paved patio to the front. Breathe in the fragrant blooms of the climbing wisteria, wending its way overhead, perfect for relaxed summer dining you can sit back and admire your lush lawn, bordered by mature trees and shrubs. Take the side path to the rear garden, where the views open up over the fields beyond and out to the viaduct. Beneath the elevated patio, the enclosed emerald lawn stretches out before you; secure and flat making this the ideal spot for croquet, ball games and cartwheels!
ON YOUR DOORSTEP .
Positioned on the edge of the village of Harringworth, you are only moments from the famous Welland Viaduct. Explore the pathways and bridleways which branch out across the surrounding countryside of the village. Why not join the local walking group and enjoy one of the many pleasant routes around the area? A gentle walk after an initial ascent is 'Percy's Path', taking in the stunning views of countryside, village and viaduct from the ridge above Harringworth.
Within the village itself, the church and village hall are a focal point for the community with the much anticipated village pub due to reopen soon, there are also a variety of local clubs offering yoga, gardening and table tennis, plus the renowned riding stables for regular hacks around the countryside.
A short drive from Harringworth will take you to the picturesque market towns of Uppingham, Oakham and Stamford with their treasure trove of pubs, restaurants, shops and amenities. Commuters are ably served by the nearby mainline railway station of Corby, less than seven miles away.

About this agent
What makes a unique home sell in Stamford and Rutland? We know it’s about understanding you and your property, listening and caring about your reasons and motives for selling and it’s about getting your project right, and right from the start. Here at Pelham James, we create beautiful marketing for unique homes. To boost the attractiveness of your home and its asking price, we believe your property’s description should be enticing, creative, descriptive and inviting yet written in the style we read in our day-to-day lives. We will tell your home’s story and share its rich history. We will capture the buyers' imagination and describe the wonderful lifestyle your home offers; that is, a loved and cherished home waiting for new memories to be made. With our lifestyle directed professional photography we capture the rope-swing swaying off the Willow Tree with the picnic rug stretched out beneath, the fire pit glowing as the sun sets and the cosy sitting room tempting you back inside again to relax and unwind. We are the only agent locally to take beautiful, imaginative and highly evocative twilight photographs that truly capture the imagination and set your property ahead of its competition. We will design an aspirational 'magazine style' brochure that's completely unique to your home and compliments the lifestyle it offers. The marketing we provide is bespoke to each individual home. We would love the opportunity to talk to you about our ideas in more detail. Please call us, we’d love to hear about your plans.
