Set on Malting Lane in picturesque Geddington, this stone-built cottage combines period character with functional family living. The house offers a warm living room with a wood burner, a kitchen/dining area with granite worksurfaces, and a useful utility/entrance hall. Its location provides direct views towards the village church and the Queen Eleanor Cross, placing you at the heart of an historic, very low-crime community with good local amenities and fast broadband.
Arranged over three levels, the layout delivers four bedrooms and a single principal bathroom — the top-floor space includes a flexible room suitable as a study, hobby room or occasional bedroom. The property is freehold and benefits from mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators. For buyers seeking character, the exposed stonework, high ceilings and traditional fireplace are attractive original features that are already in daily use.
Practical constraints are clear and should be considered: the overall footprint is compact, external amenity is a small enclosed courtyard rather than a large garden, and there is only one bathroom. The EPC is rated D and the stone external walls may need targeted repointing or maintenance. Parking appears limited to on-street provision; any major extensions could be restricted by planning or conservation rules.
This cottage will suit buyers wanting a move-ready character home in a prosperous village setting, or investors/first-time buyers looking for a rental/holiday-let with scope for modest modernisation. The property’s charm, central village location and utility spaces provide immediate livability, while sympathetic updates could enhance comfort and value over time.
