Stoneleigh is a characterful and substantial family home, constructed around 1930, using traditional materials. The accommodation, which is set over two floors, plus an attic, is fairly classical in design and proportion, with wonderfully light reception rooms with high ceilings and large windows, overlooking the garden.

The heavy, oak front door opens to the hall which offers plenty of space to receive guests. The cloakroom is to one end. There are three reception rooms. The drawing room is a great size and offers a degree of style and elegance, with a large fireplace to one end, with alcoves to either side. The cornicing and picture rails are in situ. A semi-circular bay projects into the garden and glazed door opens to the terrace.

The dining room is adjacent and is an atmospheric room for formal occasions. A sun lounge is set to one end and has doors opening to the garden.

The study is at the far end of the hall, and is plenty large enough to be a second sitting room or decent playroom.

The kitchen has been beautifully fitted with bespoke furniture by Willowbrook. The granite worksurfaces and drainer are complimented by the large island, with storage beneath. There is ample room for family mealtimes around a farmhouse table.
The utility cum boot room is beyond and offers space for the usual appliances, as well as plenty of storage. There is access direct to the garden.

The handsome staircase rises to the galleried landing. There are five double bedrooms, each with a pleasing outlook. The principal bedroom has a window seat overlooking the garden. There is a range of fitted furniture and adjacent is a well-appointed ensuite shower room / WC. The remaining bedrooms have use of the family bathroom.

The fifth bedroom, a large double room, is an excellent teenager's domain, having stairs rising to a superb attic sitting room or playroom. Beyond, is a walk-in store room, with conversion potential, with scope to create a further bedroom and bathroom.

The house sits back from Cotterstock Road, with a tarmac drive to the front, providing ample parking and turning space. A double garage is set to the side and has an additional door, allowing vehicle access to the rear garden.

The mature gardens surround the house and allow one to follow the sun throughout the day.
There are terraces adjacent to the house, accessible from the principal rooms, almost extending the accommodation on a fine day. The southerly terrace has an attractive Scotts of Thrapston summer house set upon it and opposite is a small pond. Steps lead down to the lawn from the East Terrace, which offers plenty of space for games. Mature trees and shrubs to the borders, provide good privacy. The plot measures 0.42 acre.
