About this property
Three Bedrooms
Period Cottage
Fully Renovated
Off-Road Parking
Village Location
Two Reception Rooms
Nestled in the highly sought-after village of Cottingham, this beautifully presented three-bedroom stone-built cottage has been fully refurbished to an exceptional standard, seamlessly blending character features with modern living.
The property is approached via a gravel driveway, providing off-road parking for multiple vehicles and setting the tone for the quality found throughout. The central entrance hallway offers access to all ground floor accommodation. To the right, the main reception room is an inviting lounge, accessed via elegant double doors. This spacious room features a charming fireplace with a gas log burner and benefits from large sliding glass doors that open out onto the garden, allowing for an abundance of natural light and delightful views over the surrounding village and church. Directly ahead from the hallway is a practical and well-designed cloakroom/ utility, complete with a hand wash basin, low-level WC, boiler housing, and useful counter top space with plumbing for white goods below. To the left of the hallway is the second reception room, currently utilised as a dining room. This characterful space boasts its own feature fireplace and stairs rising to the first floor. A door from here leads into the recently remodelled kitchen, now a stylish and contemporary hub of the home. The kitchen offers ample worktop space, a range of base and wall-mounted units, an integrated dishwasher, and a pantry-style cupboard with power for small appliances. A useful porch/boot room adjoins the kitchen, featuring a traditional stable door that provides a secondary entrance to the property.
Upstairs, the generous principal bedroom enjoys dual-aspect windows, flooding the room with natural light. The second bedroom is also a spacious double, while the third is a comfortable small double. The landing benefits from fitted storage, and the accommodation is completed by a stunning four-piece family bathroom, comprising a hand wash basin, low-level WC, separate shower unit, and a striking roll-top bath as the centrepiece.
Externally, the property continues to impress. A patio area extends from the lounge, ideal for outdoor seating and entertaining, leading down to a beautifully landscaped lawn. The garden has been thoughtfully designed and prepared to accommodate a substantial log cabin, which is already in place. This versatile outbuilding is split into two sections: One providing practical garden storage, and the other currently used as a home office- perfect for remote working, but equally suited as a gym, studio, or bar area. The property has undergone extensive improvements, including new windows and doors throughout, comprehensive damp proofing, full redecoration, new flooring, a refitted cloakroom, installation of a feature fireplace in the lounge, and complete landscaping of the garden.
Cottingham itself is a charming rural village, known for its peaceful setting and strong sense of community. Surrounded by rolling countryside, it offers an ideal lifestyle for those seeking a quieter pace of life while still remaining well connected. The village benefits from nearby market towns such as Market Harborough and Uppingham, both of which provide a wide range of amenities including shops, cafés, restaurants, and schooling. With excellent access to road and rail links, the area is well suited for commuters while retaining its quintessential English village charm.
