This six-bedroom character home has been transformed over time into one spacious and charming property of over 4800 sq ft.
Description
The Property
The property is situated directly on the Main Street in the delightful village of Aldwincle, and despite its central setting it has a very generous garden to the rear offering a wealth of space. The house has many well-preserved character features throughout, including stone fireplaces, exposed timber beams and roof trusses, solid wood doors and stone elements, and is generally well presented throughout, however would benefit from further modernisation and improvement to bring it up to its full potential. A highlight of the home is its availability of storage, with much of the space unused providing a great opportunity for redevelopment (subject to obtaining the necessary permissions).
Accommodation
The house has two separate entrances from the street, providing both a formal entrance hall and a separate entry to the family accommodation. On one side there is a main reception hall leading to a sitting room, study area/utility room and the storage space at the rear comprising a bathroom, a store and three separate store/workshops accessed from the garden. From the main sitting room there is a door to the dining room and kitchen, which has access to a pantry, boiler room and lean-to conservatory. From the additional front door there is access to a large reception room currently used as a play room, a study and the rest of the ground floor. Stairs from the study lead up to the first floor where there are six bedrooms two bath/shower rooms and a separate w.c.
Outside
The house is situated directly on Main Street where there is parking available. To the rear there is a very generous garden, with two separate paved courtyard spaces for outdoor entertaining, an expansive lawn dotted with mature trees and shrubs and access to a number of workshops and outbuildings used for storage and gated rear vehicular access. Directly opposite the property, St Peter’s Cottage has a quarter ownership share, and direct access into, the one acre paddock of former Glebe Land.
Location
Aldwincle is a charming village with a mix of largely period stone houses at its core, which supports a village shop, the Trinity Church of England Primary School (Ofsted Good rated 2016) and a pair of churches.
The village lies alongside the river Nene, 5.1 miles south of Oundle, whose schools, Oundle School (Tatler Public School of the Year - 2018) and Laxton Preparatory, are well thought of. Kimbolton School is also 15 miles south. The Georgian market town of Oundle has a Waitrose, a mix of independent shops, both weekly and farmers’ markets and was featured within the 2017 list of The Sunday Times Best Places to Live. Mainline commuter rail services to London St Pancras are available from Kettering and Wellingborough (both 13 miles), or from Huntingdon (19 miles) to London Kings Cross.
There is excellent access to open countryside from the village, with walks around the Aldwincle Lakes and on public footpaths along the river Nene, which link to walking and cycling trails through woodlands towards Lyveden New Bield.
