Always Wanted The Quiet Village Life? This Superb, Modernised Cottage May Be Just What You Are Looking For. This tastefully updated period property would be perfect if you’re looking to put down roots in this sleepy little village.

There’s no easy way of saying this, six-footers may want to look elsewhere for their rural cottage fix. Upstairs in this secluded small cottage is fine, with lofty ceilings. But the ground floor lounge and kitchen have low ceilings with exposed beams that means taller folk risk a bonk on their head…

This could be perfect if you’re looking for a quiet life. It’s located in a small village and surrounded by the finest Northamptonshire countryside. This property is set back from the main street sharing a secluded driveway with two other cottages.

The spacious lounge ticks the period charm boxes with a traditional wood burner and exposed beams.

The kitchen has a similarly low ceiling with shaker-style fitted units. It’s roomy enough for a small dining table and chairs.

There’s no access to the rear of the property but there is a low maintenance south facing front garden with views of the Church. It’s a lovely place to sit out, enjoy the sun and have a cuppa whilst listening to the birdsong and church bells.

Upstairs, there’s one spacious double bedroom and a single bedroom that really lends itself to being used as a study or dressing room. Both have plenty of head height.

The bathroom is modern and in immaculate condition, a perfect place to unwind after a long day.

If you have a car, there’s parking on the shared drive.

This cottage is also in a superb spot if you want to throw yourself into village life.

If you don’t want to cook and you don’t want to head far, The Bell Inn is literally round the corner or The Hare Hounds in Great Addington is only a short drive away.

If you prefer big name retailers, restaurant chains and multiplex cinemas, Rushden Lakes is only 10 minutes drive away.

You can enjoy a quiet life in this charming cottage - but you're still less than 10 minutes from Aldi in Irthlingborough.

And if you want to hit the shops or catch up with friends, Wellingborough is the nearest large town, it’s around 15 minutes drive away. If you need to head into London for business or pleasure you can jump on a train from here to St Pancras.

There’s miles of open fields on your doorstep and Stanwick Lakes nature reserve is just a 20 minute bike ride or a pleasant 60 minute walk away.

It has something for every fitness level, with over 7 miles of footpaths, regular fun runs throughout the year and a choice of more sedate activities such as birdwatching or fishing at the nearby Stanwick Fisheries.

This attractive and modernised cottage is bound to be popular with a wide range of tenants looking for a quiet village life.
