This Grade II listed three-double-bedroom cottage sits on The Green in Chelveston, combining original charm with a later modern kitchen extension. Exposed beams, a cast-iron log burner and sandstone details give genuine period character, while a bespoke kitchen, fast broadband and gas central heating offer everyday comfort. The property is well configured with separate lounge and dining rooms, loft storage and off-street parking beside a large, mature front garden.
The home will suit buyers seeking village life with good commuting links—Wellingborough station and the A45/A14 corridors are within easy reach, and Rushden Lakes is a short drive for shopping and leisure. Local primary schools rated Good are close by; one nearby secondary is currently rated Inadequate. The cottage’s compact room sizes and low ceilings in the thatched section create a cosy atmosphere but limit open-plan possibilities.
Important practical points: the Grade II listing and thatched character mean alterations will be restricted and specialist maintenance may be required, which could add cost and delay for any refurbishment. There is one shower room only, and the property layout reflects its historic origins rather than modern spacious planning. Council tax is described as low and there is no flood risk.
Overall this is an attractive, characterful freehold cottage for buyers who value village charm, period detail and a mature garden, and who are prepared for the constraints and upkeep that come with listed, thatched properties.
