Three Bedroom Stunning Character Cottage For Sale in Whilton

Dating back to 1750, this beautiful stone cottage is the epitome of an English country home. Sympathetically restored and thoughtfully updated, it blends all the charm of its heritage with the comfort and style of modern living.

From the outside it’s quietly unassuming, but step through the door and it really does take your breath away.

The dining reception room, with its flagstone floor and impressive inglenook fireplace, immediately sets the tone – cosy, welcoming and full of character.

The real heart of the home, though, is the open-plan kitchen and family room. With its large island, exposed stonework, built-in appliances, and bi-fold doors that open out into the garden, this is a space made for both entertaining and everyday life. In the summer months it feels like the garden becomes part of the home.

And then there’s the showpiece – a stunning glass and oak atrium. It’s the perfect spot for morning coffee, with light pouring in and views out to the garden. This leads through to “The Nook,” a versatile room where the current owners enjoy family film nights, entertaining friends, or even working out. With bi-fold doors opening onto the garden, it has a relaxed, airy feel.

For those quieter moments, there’s also a snug at the front of the cottage with a log burner – the perfect place to unwind after a countryside or canal walk.

Downstairs you’ll also find a handy WC and access to the cellar, which offers excellent storage and could easily be converted into something more creative.

Upstairs there are three generous double bedrooms and a boutique-style four-piece family bathroom that feels more like a luxury hotel suite. The principal bedroom is particularly special, with its own dressing area, en-suite shower room, and views over the garden.

This home has been lovingly restored and finished to a high standard throughout. It’s the sort of place you’d expect to see featured in Country Living magazine – and it truly needs to be seen in person to appreciate all the little details that make it so unique.

Now parking is street parking however most properties have their own drives so the street is almost all yours!
