2 bedroom semi-detached house

A delightful stone, semi-detached cottage with two bedrooms, garden and parking, set in a small, rural village, with public house, and with easy access to Oundle and Thrapston.

This charming stone cottage probably dates from the late 1700's and offers a good degree of character as a result. Some useful, sympathetic modernisation has taken place, creating a comfortable and efficient home. The well-appointed accommodation is beautifully presented and is set over two floors. It has recently installed double-glazed windows and doors, and is heated by the latest, thermostatically and timer controlled, electric heating.

The property can be entered from the front, but as with most country cottages the door most frequently in use, leads into the boot room / utility, where there is space for coats, a sink and work-surface and plumbing for the washing machine. A door leads through to the bright kitchen, which has two south-facing windows . There is ample space for cooking and daily dining. The bespoke units have hardwood work-surfaces and an inset sink. The cooker is set into the chimney breast. The exposed stone walls add to the atmosphere.

The sitting room is at the front of the house and has windows and French doors to the garden. The focal point is the brick fireplace with inset wood burning stove. Original pine cupboards are fitted to either side. There are two heavy beams to the ceiling.

The first floor is approached via stairs from the sitting room. The landing gives access, via pine, latched doors to the two double bedrooms and the well-appointed bathroom , which has a bath, wash basin, Wc and tiled shower cubicle.

The cottage has a gated, gravelled drive, priding parking. Beside the drive is the lawn, which runs from the patio, right up to the front boundary, where there is a pedestrian gate to the lane.

A path leads around the house, past a useful store, and in to the courtyard area, before approaching the back door.
