A well-presented detached house, within just over 4 acres of landscaped gardens and post and rail fenced paddocks, with stable yard, in an accessible rural setting a mile north of Thorney
Description
This versatile house is entered through a wide oak floored entrance hallway. From here the dining room adjoins and accesses both the kitchen and the 31’ long sitting room, from which there are French doors to the garden, with a large inglenook with wood burning stove, which also offers access to the kitchen. Overall making fabulous entertaining space.
The kitchen/breakfast room is well-appointed, with a shaker style suite with wall and base units under oak wood worktops, incorporating an integrated dishwasher and double oven Rangemaster. The kitchen is supplemented by an adjoining utility room, with plumbing for white goods, and an inner lobby that accesses a cloakroom/W.C.
From the hallway, or utility, the triple aspect 18’ garden room makes a fabulous third reception room with views and French doors to the garden, whilst returning towards the front door along the hallway, a boot room, with shower room, is ideal for dogs and returning from muddy walks. Two ground floor bedrooms, one of which is currently furnished and used as an office complete the ground floor.
The staircase rises from the dining room to the first floor accommodation, where there are three further double bedrooms, served by a full-suite family bathroom and a second family shower room.
Outside:
The property is approached from English Drove to an extensive gravelled driveway and turning sweep, which also provides access to the paddocks, stable yard, and garages, offering ample space for parking.
The formal garden lies to the south (rear) of the house, accessed from the garden room and sitting room. With a wide brick paved terrace adjoining the house, partially covered by a large pergola with fragrant climbers for alfresco dining, or reading with dappled summer shade. The gardens are lawned with deep flowering borders, mixed species deciduous and fruit trees, and a picket fenced kitchen garden with poly tunnel. The Ferryman polytunnel, situated in an enclosed fruit and vegetable garden, measures approximately 30'x18' Ferryman.
Garages: Accessed from the driveway, the double garage has been used by previous owners for a cottage industry and workshops, with exposed oak beams, lined walls, power and lighting, together with a painted concrete floor.
Stables: The adjacent Scotts of Thrapston stable block incorporates a tack room and four stables (including one foaling box), with front and rear access to the yard and to the fields.
Paddocks: The land adjoins the garden and stable yard in a single ring-fenced block to the south and east. Sub-divided by post and rail fences, into five paddocks, all have access to water troughs, with mature hawthorn hedgerow boundaries, in the main.
The property extends to 4.2 acres, or thereabouts, in total.
