Period character, private walled garden and parking in the heart of Oundle.
Private stone-built cottage in central Oundle
Tucked into an exclusive private development in the heart of Oundle, this stone-built cottage blends period character with modern fittings. The ground-floor reception benefits from a semi-vaulted ceiling, exposed oak timbers, Burgundian stone flooring and a stone fireplace, creating a warm, characterful living space. A bespoke Chalon kitchen with an AGA and integrated appliances sits beyond a stone archway and includes useful under-stair storage.
Upstairs are two well-proportioned bedrooms and a fully tiled bathroom with a shower-over-bath. The house is compact but cleverly arranged across two storeys and a small attic footprint, making efficient use of its 704–713 sq ft. Practical details include mains gas central heating, an EPC rating of C and freehold tenure.
Outside is a private, low-maintenance walled garden with two entertaining areas, mature planting and an allocated off-street parking space. The location is central for Oundle’s independent shops, weekly market, festivals and excellent local schools, including Oundle School and good state primaries.
Considerations: the plot and garden are small and external space is limited; opportunities to extend are likely constrained by the stone construction and neighbouring buildings. Internal room sizes are compact, so the layout suits downsizers, professionals seeking a town-base, or investors rather than those needing large family accommodation. Broadband is listed as ultrafast available, but reported speeds are average locally. Council tax band is not specified.
