Tucked away in the heart of the charming and sought after village of Grafton Underwood in Northamptonshire, this exceptional 17th century stone built cottage offers a rare opportunity to own a home that seamlessly blends historic charm with modern living. Set well back from the road behind private gated access, the property sits on an impressive, wraparound plot with a gravel driveway offering parking for multiple vehicles.

Full of character throughout, the cottage showcases original features including exposed beams, stone flooring, and an impressive inglenook fireplace. The accommodation is spacious and versatile, with three well proportioned reception rooms. One is a cosy snug, perfect for quiet evenings, complete with a wood burning stove, while the main lounge is filled with natural light and opens onto the beautifully landscaped garden through French doors. The dining room adds to the home’s period charm with its elegant stone floor and pantry cupboard.

The heart of the home is a stunning country style kitchen, complete with high end Neff appliances, ample storage, a breakfast bar, and a barn-style door leading out to the garden, where countryside views can be enjoyed. A convenient utility room, downstairs shower room, and toilet add to the practical layout. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms and a large family bathroom, offering space for families or those looking for a relaxed village lifestyle. The bedrooms are accessed via two staircases, one offering access to two large bedrooms and the family bathroom and the other offering the two further bedrooms, perfect for children given the reduced head height.

The outdoor space is equally impressive. The expansive garden wraps around the house and has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a wonderful entertaining area, with a tiered porcelain patio and a charming pagoda garden room, ideal for hosting family and friends. A large lawned area and rear access to open countryside make this home perfect for enjoying peaceful walks and taking in the stunning rural surroundings.

Grafton Underwood is a quintessential Northamptonshire village, known for its beauty, history, and community spirit. Nearby Kettering offers excellent shopping, dining, and leisure facilities, as well as a mainline train station with fast links to London St Pancras in under an hour, ideal for commuters. The area boasts a range of excellent schooling options, both state and independent, and there are several highly regarded local pubs and restaurants in the surrounding villages.

This is a truly unique and characterful home in a desirable village setting, offering space, privacy, charm, and connectivity, a rare find that must be viewed to be fully appreciated
