High Street, Stanion, NN14

Nestled in the very heart of the picturesque village of Stanion, and occupying a generous plot close to the historic St Peter’s Church, this exceptional Grade II listed detached stone and thatched cottage dates back to 1732. Extended in the 1960s and thoughtfully refurbished by the current owners, the property beautifully balances period charm with comfortable modern living.

From the outset, the limestone façade and traditional thatched roof set the tone for what lies within. The interior is rich in character, showcasing a wealth of original features including exposed brickwork, impressive exposed beams, original internal doors and an inviting open fire — all combining to create a home of warmth, charm and individuality.

The ground floor offers two delightful reception rooms, each brimming with period detail and ideal for both relaxed family living and entertaining. The breakfast kitchen is fitted with a cottage-style, two-tone Howdens kitchen, thoughtfully designed to complement the age of the property. It includes a range of integrated appliances and an eye-level double oven, blending practicality with traditional aesthetics.

A beautifully appointed ground floor bathroom features a walk-in shower and a classic claw foot bath, perfectly in keeping with the heritage of the home. An additional lobby provides access to both the front and rear elevations and serves as a boot room — an ideal practical space for country living.

To the first floor are four bedrooms, all continuing the theme of character and charm. Bedrooms one and two are particularly impressive, enjoying vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and brickwork. Bedroom two benefits from built-in storage and an adjoining additional room, offering versatile space ideal as a playroom, walk-in wardrobe or study. A further bathroom on this floor features another elegant claw foot bath, completing the accommodation.

Externally, the property enjoys a part-walled rear garden, mainly laid to lawn and thoughtfully planted with a variety of mature trees and shrubs including elderberry, fig, cherry blossom and baby willow. A lower gravelled area leads to a shed, while an extended patio provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. The garden also enjoys views towards the churchyard, enhancing the tranquil and historic setting.

This truly enchanting home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of local history, full of charm, character and timeless appeal, set within one of the area’s most desirable village locations.
