House For Sale £650,000
A charming stone house with versatile living space and delightful gardens, set along a tranquil lane and overlooking the Nene valley. Last sold in 1947. No chain.
This attractive stone house is a former pub that probably dates from the late 1700s . It is built of local limestone and originally had a thatched roof but now sits under clay tiles. The accommodation is set over two floors and boasts many period features including an inglenook, beams, window seats and even the parquet flooring. The house has been a family home since 1947 and now offers scope for a discerning purchaser to put their own stamp upon it.
The front door opens to the porch. A shower room / WC stands to one side. Beyond is a dining hall, with fire place and lovely views across the fields. A door leads through to the sitting room, which also has lovely views from the window with seat beneath. The inglenook with open fire makes a cosy focal point. A door leads through to a small lobby and then on to what may have been the pub cellar. It now a useful boiler cum utility room. The boiler is not currently in commission.
The snug also has an open fire and has a view over the front garden. The inner hall has good storage built along one wall. This leads down to the kitchen, which is fitted with a range of wall and base units, with worksurfaces and inset sink. There is an electric hob and a pair of electric ovens. A hatch opens to the breakfast room, which is set adjacent, and enjoys a view over the front garden.
Stairs rise, from the hall to the first floor landing, where there are five double bedrooms. Each has a lovely view over the fields or the garden. There is family bathroom and a separate WC. There is plumbing to several of the bedrooms, offering scope for the creation of ensuite facilities, or a second, full bathroom.
The drive to Taven Cottage, sweeps past the front lawn and on to the gravelled forecourt in front of the house. There is space for garaging, subject to planning permission. A large timber store stands at one end of the house. The main area of garden is approached via a path, past a pave patio. The lawn is slightly elevated and captures the sunshine throughout the day. Mature shrubs and trees provide colour, height and interest, as well as superb privacy.
