Description
Saddlers Cottage – A Refined Blend of Country Charm and Contemporary Living
Presenting Saddlers Cottage—an exceptional 18th-century country residence, originally constructed circa 1797 and thoughtfully extended to balance historic charm with modern practicality. Tucked away on a generous 0.75-acre plot, this substantial home offers over 4,440 sq ft of beautifully arranged living space, including a tandem garage, greenhouse and a versatile outbuilding, all set against a backdrop of mature, private gardens with uninterrupted countryside views.
Arriving at the property, a wide stone-chipped driveway and inner courtyard guide you to the elegant outer porchway. Beyond, the inner porch offers a cloakroom area and a delightful illuminated well shaft—said to bring good fortune. From here, the original oak door opens into the heart of the home.
The remodelled central hallway connects the home beautifully and provides access to practical storage, a guest W.C., and a walk-in pantry. To one side sits the cosy snug, ideal for quiet evenings, and a bright breakfast room with views over the garden. Adjacent is the vaulted breakfast kitchen, fitted with an Aga and leading to a utility room, which flows effortlessly into the summer room—a light-filled garden lounge perfect for unwinding in style.
At the opposite end of the house lies a large open-plan lounge/dining room, complete with a central fireplace and exposed chimney breast. There is also a spacious study/home office, ideal for remote working, and an expansive second sitting room (22'4" x 17'5") offering yet another generous, flexible space for family life or entertaining.
The first floor is cleverly arranged via two staircases, separating the bedroom wings....
The main bedroom suite—accessed via its own private staircase—features built-in wardrobes, a balcony with serene views over the gardens, and a luxurious en-suite with a full-size bath and walk-in double shower.
The original first floor wing, accessed from the central hallway or family room staircase, includes four further double bedrooms, two of which benefit from their own fitted wardrobes. These are served by two well-appointed bathrooms, both featuring full-size baths and walk-in showers—ideal for family and guest use.
The outside space is equally impressive. A detached tandem garage (31’9” x 10’9”) provides secure parking and storage, while a greenhouse & generous outbuilding offers superb potential for a home gym, office, or hobby room.
To the rear, the landscaped garden features a large patio with gazebo, perfect for al fresco dining, and a sprawling lawn framed by established borders and trees. The setting is wonderfully private, with sweeping countryside views that evolve beautifully with the seasons.
Saddlers Cottage is more than a home—it's a piece of Austrey's history, lovingly restored and tailored for modern family life. For those seeking character, space, and tranquillity without compromise, this outstanding residence delivers on every front.
