House For Sale £475,000
A fantastic opportunity to purchase a unique three storey wing of a 17th century hall set overlooking delightful far reaching countryside within the highly desirable and conveniently positioned North Northamptonshire village of Great Oxendon, which lies just 2 miles south of the popular town of Market Harborough and mainline railway links to London in less than an hour.
Great Oxendon Hall, whilst dating back to the 1600's, is unlisted and was sympathetically reformed into 11 bespoke residences in 2007. These homes retain much of the hall's original charm and character but offer a sense of luxury with high ceilings, sash windows with shutters and an impressive contemporary finish throughout.
The entrance door to East Wing is approached from the rear of the main building and opens into an impressive hallway which instantly gives the viewer a sense of the quality and space to expect throughout the property. There is a range of built in storage cupboards, one housing the gas fired boiler, another with plumbing and space for both washing machine and tumble dryer. There is a large cloakroom / wc and tall opening through to the main ground floor accommodation. The kitchen is split in to two levels and enjoys tall French doors which open directly out on to the sun terrace. There are an impressive range of matching high quality timber units to base & eye levels, with granite worktop surfaces, inset 1½ sink, integrated neff appliances including double electric oven, gas hob, extractor hood and fridge, freezer. A second tall opening allows access through to the separate living area, also split in to two levels with raised dining area and steps down to a tremendous lounge enjoying three vast windows of great height forming a bay. This incredible space to the ground floor offers such versatility to the vendor.
Rising to the first floor you arrive on to a long landing with built in airing cupboard and useful storage or seating space, currently housing a dressing table. The principal bedroom forms a most attractive feature of the property, very spacious with beautiful sash window behind shutters overlooking the grounds, range of built in wardrobes and en-suite shower room. Both the second and third bedrooms again enjoy high ceilings and the second itself also has a range of built in wardrobes. The family bathroom is the last remaining room on this floor and offers a bath separate to a shower.
A second staircase rises to the upper floor which really sets the property aside from others within the development, where there lies a fantastic and very versatile space currently used half as a sitting room and the other side as a large home office. Also accessed from this floor is a great amount of loft space via two access points, offering excellent storage space.
Externally, East Wing enjoys an appealing sun terrace offering a fantastic space for al fresco dining and Great Oxendon Hall stands beautifully overlooking the North Northamptonshire countryside on the edge of the village. A private gravel driveway provides access from Main
Street on to a car park with dedicated parking spaces. East Wing also benefits from a single garage. The grounds are excellently maintained with well kept lawns, mature trees and well stocked boundaries.
Vendor Comment:
"It has been a privilege for us to live in a house that has such history having witnessed the soldiers that fought in a major battle of the English civil war.The battle of Naseby.
This beautiful house overlooks tranquil countryside, but at the same time is close to all the amenities in the small market town of Market Harborough.
Whilst our property is among 11 in the community which gives us a sense of security it still maintains its privacy.
Since we spend so little time in the property we have reluctantly decided to sell it."
