Description

Nestled in the sought-after village of Islip, this distinctive double-fronted stone residence boasts over 200 years of history. The home is set on a generous plot featuring expansive front and rear gardens, offering ample potential for renovation and expansion. Inside, period features abound, providing a unique character that many contemporary homes lack. The ground floor comprises two inviting reception rooms, including a warm lounge with a multi-fuel log burner and an adjoining study. The dining room connects seamlessly to the kitchen, supplemented by a large pantry/utility area and a cloakroom for added convenience. Upstairs, you will find three spacious double bedrooms alongside a family bathroom and an additional shower room. The property also includes a self-contained annex above the garage, offering versatility as guest accommodation or an office space, complete with its own kitchenette and shower room. The outdoor space enhances the property's appeal, featuring a beautifully arranged front garden with hedging for privacy and off-street parking for several vehicles. The split-level rear garden is both private and expansive, showcasing patios, lawns, mature planting areas, useful outbuildings like stone stores and a greenhouse. There is also significant potential to extend the home further at the rear (subject to planning permission), making it ideal for investors or those looking to create their dream family home in this idyllic setting. Enjoying proximity to riverside walks and local amenities in Thrapston, as well as easy access to outdoor recreational areas like Twywell Hills and Dales, this property represents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking character combined with investment potential.
