Stockerston Road, Uppingham, Oakham, Rutland

Little Hebe, a mid-Victorian cottage on Stockerston Road, Uppingham, three bedrooms, built in 1857 and thoughtfully extended and updated.

Accommodation - s with many cottages of this age, the front door opens directly into the sitting room. These days, though, it's the side entrance to the right of the building that serves as the everyday entrance.
The sitting room itself is a place to close the door on the world: wood panelling either side of the chimney breast and a feature fireplace. From here, an inner reception room connects through to the side entrance hall, with fitted storage built in under the stairs.

To the rear, the kitchen is where the roofline lifts and daylight pours in through three skylights, an exposed beam running the length of the ceiling above. Units run along two walls, with room left over for a dining table and further seating, and bifold doors open the whole space onto the garden. A combined utility room and WC completes the ground floor, with plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom has built-in wardrobes and its own vaulted ceiling, beamed above the bed. Two further bedrooms and a family bathroom, fitted with a bath and shower over, plus a heated towel rail.

Outside - Outside, the garden is laid out in stages: a decked seating area and gravel patio directly off the bifold doors, then a run of stone steps up through terraced borders to a long lawn. At the far end, a second deck sits beneath a pergola and a summer house to the right. A garden with somewhere different to sit for every part of the day.

Box topiary frame the front, with off-road parking for one small car to the right.
