A substantial and highly versatile smallholding extending to approximately 4.8 acres, Compton Cottage and Compton Barns offer an exceptional opportunity to acquire a beautifully renovated Victorian country property with extensive outbuildings, land and enormous future potential.

Situated in a private rural setting on the edge of the highly regarded village of Staverton, adjacent to the Staverton-Daventry Road, this charming mid Victorian residence enjoys far reaching countryside views across its own pasture land and gardens. The property has undergone significant renovation and improvement works in recent years, including a new roof, new kitchen, new bathrooms, extensive painting and decorating, and landscaped gardens, while retaining many original character features throughout.

The estate includes a substantial steel framed workshop, stable facilities, a large traditional brick built barn and a variety of additional outbuildings, making it ideally suited for residential, equestrian, agricultural or recreational use, subject to any necessary planning permissions.

The accommodation is both spacious and characterful, with well proportioned rooms and attractive countryside views from most aspects. The welcoming entrance hallway boasts a staircase rising to the first floor with storage beneath, pantry space and direct access to the gardens.

The recently updated kitchen/breakfast room enjoys dual aspects to the side and rear and is fitted with a range of wall and base units, work surfaces, integrated oven and hob, together with ample space for appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is a separate utility room providing additional practical storage and laundry space. The kitchen provides excellent entertaining space and connects directly to the conservatory via French doors. The conservatory enjoys panoramic garden views and further access to the outside areas.

The property benefits from several versatile reception rooms, including a charming dining room with exposed beams and bay window, which opens through to the lounge. The spacious lounge features multiple windows overlooking the surrounding grounds, exposed ceiling beams and a multi fuel inset burner with timber mantel surround, creating an ideal family living space.

A cloakroom/WC completes the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor continues to offer generous and flexible accommodation with four well sized bedrooms, all enjoying pleasant rural outlooks.

The principal bedroom is particularly spacious with windows to multiple elevations and ample natural light. Bedroom two is another generous double room with countryside views, while bedrooms three and four provide comfortable additional accommodation suitable for family, guests or home working.

The property benefits from two recently updated bathroom facilities, including a family bathroom and separate shower room, both fitted with modern sanitary ware and finished to an excellent standard.

Compton Cottage occupies an impressive plot extending to approximately 4.8 acres overall, offering tremendous scope and flexibility for a variety of uses.

The mature gardens surrounding the cottage have been significantly improved and landscaped, featuring established trees, shrubs and hedging which create a peaceful and private setting.

The property is approached via two separate driveways, providing extensive parking and excellent accessibility across the site. One driveway serves the residential parking and garage areas, while the second provides direct access to the barns, workshop buildings and pasture land.

The external buildings are a major feature of the property and include a substantial traditional brick built barn, stable facilities, a large steel framed workshop, storage buildings and additional agricultural style outbuildings.
