Delightful character cottage with lovely garden.
Description
Set in the heart of the picturesque village of Weedon Lois, Laundry Cottage is an enchanting character home dating back to 1825, filled with history and charm. Owned by the same vendors for over 20 years, the property has been sympathetically maintained and improved to preserve its traditional cottage aesthetic while offering modern comforts. This delightful cottage features a wealth of period features and detail, all contributing to its inviting and comfortable ambiance.
The ground floor comprises a welcoming sitting room featuring exposed brick fireplace and a log burner as a focal point, and exposed wooden beams. Adjacent, the dining room is a great entertaining space, which also benefits from a log burner and wonderful countryside views. The garden room is another great addition, a tranquil retreat flooded in natural light while being able to enjoy the garden views. The kitchen is a great space with pantry and ample surface space and potential to upgrade, while the utility room providing further practicality and functionality.
Upstairs are two generously sized bedrooms, one with built in storage, and both with stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Both bedrooms are facilitated by a well-appointed and spacious bathroom.
Outside, the garden is a highlight, arranged over different levels to create a variety of charming pockets to explore. With an abundance of lawn and patio areas, raised flower beds, hedges and mature trees, this haven is the perfect area to be enjoyed in the summer months. In addition the property also benefits from stabling/ workshops, wood shed, garage and gravelled driveway with ample off road parking.
Location
Weedon Lois (sometimes also referred to as Lois Weedon) is a rural village situated in the countryside of ‘The Golden Triangle’ in South Northamptonshire.
Mentioned in the Doomsday Book, its name came from the Anglo-Saxon “Wedone” meaning “a hill with a temple” and to this day there remains a prominent mound above the village green which is known as Castle Mound. It is believed that a Norman priory was founded in c1100. Situated in Church Close field, all traces seem to of it have sadly disappeared. Recorded on a tablet in the church, the village history is also linked to the Civil War, by its then vicar, a loyalist who was apprehended by Parliamentary troops in July 1643.
Amenities include a well-regarded Church of England Primary school, church, village hall, playing field and The Crown Inn pub/restaurant in the neighbouring village of Weston. The thriving village community of Weston & Weedon also offers everything from amateur dramatics, to WI, horticultural society, playgroup and yoga. The nearby market town of Towcester provides for more extensive requirements including banks, boutiques and supermarkets.
State schools in the village St Loys (primary) Chenderit Comprehensive (Middleton Cheney) and Sponne school (Towcester). Preparatory schools include Carrdus (Overthorpe), Winchester House (Brackley), St. John’s Priory (Banbury) and Beachborough (Westbury). Public schools include Northampton High for Girls, Bloxham Public School and Tudor Hall, (Bloxham, girls) and Stowe.
Communication links include M1 (J15a) about 13 miles and M40 (J11) about 10 miles. The A 43 dual carriage way links M1 and M40 (J10). Mainline train services from Milton Keynes, about 18 miles (London/Euston from 35 minutes) and Banbury (London/Marylebone from 56 minutes).
