Charming 3-bed cottage with new kitchen, large garden and far-reaching countryside views.
Substantially extended 19th-century cottage with large overall size
A substantially extended 19th-century cottage offering generous living space and a large garden with far-reaching countryside views. The newly fitted kitchen with roof lantern and integrated appliances provides a bright, family-friendly heart, while the sitting room’s oak flooring and log-burning stove add period charm. The master bedroom has a vaulted ceiling, twin skylights and an ensuite, complemented by two further double bedrooms and a well-kept family bathroom.
Practical upgrades include solar panels and double glazing (fitted during/after 2002); the property is described as newly renovated overall. Its plot is notably large with a patio, lawn, established planting, shed and greenhouse — ideal for outdoor family life and entertaining. Broadband is fast and mobile signal excellent, and the cottage is within walking distance of Clipston village centre and the well-regarded primary school.
Important considerations: heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators, which can mean higher running costs and regular maintenance compared with mains gas. The house is built with solid brick and is assumed to have no cavity insulation, so there may be scope (and cost) for improving thermal efficiency. The property sits in a conservation area, so any tree works are subject to a TCA and external alterations may face restrictions.
Overall this semi-detached cottage suits families seeking village life with countryside views, a generous garden and a recently refreshed interior, while buyers should be aware of the conservation-area constraints and potential costs to upgrade heating and insulation.
