Description
A versatile family home with 1.53 acres of garden and paddock, along with garaging and stabling, set in an enviable, position, on the edge of a desirable village, close to Oundle. No onward chain.
\rThis beautifully constructed, modern family house, was designed by a local architect, for his own occupation. The property was built in 1989, and laid out to maximise enjoyment of its plot, position and wonderful outlook. Quality materials were used in the build process and these have stood the test of time. Though over thirty years old, the configuration and design is very much in line with today's way of open-plan living, with large, light rooms and hallways, tall ceilings, and sociable, inclusive spaces. On the practical side, there is excellent storage on each floor, including wardrobes in most of the bedrooms. The house has oil-fired central heating and recently installed, aluminium-framed double-glazed windows.
The chestnut front door opens to the hall with quarry tiled floor, which runs around the to the inner hall, where there is a useful storage cupboard. The main rooms are at the back of the house and enjoy views over the garden.
The living room is a great size and enjoys a dual aspect with French doors opening to the front, courtyard garden and to the rear patio. The focal point is the Jetmaster, inset, open fire, with shelving to either side.
The sitting room has been a formal dining room in the past, and also has direct access to the patio. It is open to the kitchen / breakfast room, creating a sociable space for family life and for entertaining.
The kitchen / Breakfast room is superbly proportioned, with ample space for food preparation and daily dining. The kitchen area is fitted with an extensive range of hand-built pine furniture, with work-surfaces and inset double sink. The range cooker, with LPG hob, has an extractor hood above. There is space for a farmhouse table and chairs, set beside the patio doors.
Down the hall, there is a guest cloak room and a useful utility room, which offers ample space for the usual appliances, good storage and space for the clobber and pets associated with family life. A stable door opens to the outside. The study is well-proportioned and could easily serve as a snug, playroom or further bedroom. It has windows to the front and doors allowing access to the front, courtyard garden.
The first floor is approached via stairs from the hall. The long landing enjoys westerly light and views across the front garden to the wooded Manor grounds opposite. The principal bedroom has a pitched ceiling and a Juliet balcony with views over the rear garden, paddock and countryside beyond. The spacious en suite offers a bath, separate shower, WC and wash basin.
The second and third bedrooms enjoy the garden and paddock views, and each has a built-in wardrobe. The fourth and fifth bedrooms have views to the west, over the front garden. The well-appointed family bathroom, with shower, bath, WC and wash basin, completes the accommodation.
Courtyard House is set behind a high stone wall. The gravelled drive provides parking and leads on to the double garage, which is accessed via a pair of up and over doors. The front garden is private and sheltered, creating a haven that enjoys the southerly and westerly sunshine. The rear garden has a patio spanning the back of the house, accessible from the kitchen, sitting room and living room. To one side is a raised herb bed. A path runs to the side of the good-sized lawn, before leading through to the kitchen garden area where there are raised beds, greenhouse and the chicken run. A gate leads through to the paddock, which has beautifully mature trees set upon it. To one side is the stable and field shelter. Power and water are connected. There is horse and vehicle access to the paddock via a private right of way.
