This stunning home is located in a semi-rural location just outside the village of Whiston, which was the former site of the historic Castle Ashby & Earls Barton Railway Station. This bespoke home was built in 2017 and was named ‘Rocket’ in honour of Stephenson’s Rocket, the first modern steam locomotive built in the early 1800s. This hamlet has a total of 10 properties and is surrounded by beautiful countryside, offering the peace and privacy that comes with country living.

This home boasts a main bedroom with dressing room and en-suite, two further double bedrooms and a jack-and-jill family bathroom. Downstairs there is a lovely entrance porch, a spacious sitting room with bifold doors to the south-east facing garden, a study, a WC and a superb German style Häcker kitchen with top of the range appliances. This north-west facing kitchen/diner also offers access to a raised terrace overlooking the countryside which is perfect for alfresco dining, especially with the incredible sunsets.

This property runs on an air source heat pump and offers underfloor heating throughout. There is fantastic extension potential and enough space for a loft conversion as well (subject to planning). The property benefits from a carport and off road parking for two cars.

The nearby village of Cogenhoe (2.6 miles away) offers a range of amenities including a Londis shop with post office, a pub, a church and a primary school.
