House For Sale £450,000
A rare opportunity has arisen to acquire this unique property that is situated within the idyllic village of Islip, with the recreational ground and the Parish Church positioned to the front. This stone built cottage offers a wealth of period features, a detached two-storey barn, a rear courtyard, gated front garden and has been stylishly decorated and improved throughout by the current owners. Showcasing a combination of both character, with its timber beams and exposed stone, and modern features, the versatile layout comprises an open plan dining room/ reception hall, living room with a beautiful open fireplace, kitchen/ breakfast room, guest w/c, three good sized bedrooms, an en-suite shower room, a family bathroom and plenty of built- in storage throughout.
Externally, the sizeable front garden has been made private by tall and attractive stone walling and timber gates, and is mostly laid to lawn with a generous patio area. Accessed via a side gate, the walled and fully enclosed rear courtyard also showcases stable block paving, providing plenty of space for outdoor furniture. You will also find a wood chip area and access into the barn, which is functional with power, light and offers double gates out to the parking, as well as a ladder staircase leading to the first floor. The barn is of brick construction and could easily be converted into an annexe, home office or salon space.
Situated close to the bank of River Nene, the village of Islip enjoys surrounding countryside and riverside walks, a local village pub/ restaurant and benefits from good road links close by. The property is also within walking distance of Thrapston’s bustling high street with its boutique shops, post office, pharmacy and other additional amenities.
