Farm Cottage is an enchanting, Grade II listed ironstone cottage offering four-bedrooms and expansive ground floor accommodation. It has been modernised throughout but retains much of its 18th century character and sits on a well-established plot on the edge of the sought-after village of Egleton.

Ground Floor - The ground floor in brief comprises a breakfast kitchen, five reception rooms, a utility room, and a downstairs shower room. The kitchen and three of the reception rooms sit to the front of the property, all dual-aspect rooms allowing plenty of light. The breakfast kitchen has a comprehensive range of timber-built units with a variety of integrated appliances, a large pantry cupboard, an oil AGA with separate electric companion, and a central island with breakfast bar. To the left of the kitchen is the breakfast room/study that leads through to the spacious utility room. The utility room provides further storage, a walk in airing cupboard, secondary sink, space for white goods, access to the ground floor shower room and a stable door out to the rear garden.

To the right of the kitchen are two further reception rooms, the dining room first with stairs rising to the first floor and a door into the lounge. The lounge has windows to three elevations, a useful understairs cupboard and a beautiful inglenook fireplace with open fire and timber beam.

Beyond the dining room, to the rear of the property is the main living room with two sash windows looking out to the garden and a fireplace with log-burner and timber mantelpiece. A door from here opens into the timber-framed garden room offering wonderful views over the garden and countryside beyond with a French door opening out to the patio.

First Floor - To the first floor there are four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The two larger double bedrooms are dual-aspect, one sitting to the front and one to the rear. There is a further smaller double bedroom and a single. All four bedrooms are served by the family bathroom comprising a walk-in shower, free-standing bath, wash hand basin, low flush lavatory and heated towel rail. The bathroom is also complemented by electric underfloor heating.

Outside - Farm Cottage sits on a generous plot of approximately 0.33 acres and has a sizeable frontage made up of a private gravelled driveway, mature front garden, and a substantial stone-built outbuilding with a single carport. The outbuilding is suitable for conversion to an office/annexe subject to the necessary planning consents.

To the left of the property, a five-bar hand gate gives way to the property’s west-facing rear garden. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a variety of mature borders and specimen trees creating year-round interest. A hard-landscaped seating area sits directly off the property with steps rising to the garden.

The garden is bounded on all sides by hedging, walling or fencing providing a great degree of privacy and security but also to take advantage of the stunning countryside views with post and rail fencing to the rear and side boundaries.

Location - Egleton is a pretty village sitting very close to Rutland Water. The historic market towns of Oakham, Uppingham and Stamford are all in easy reach providing excellent shopping facilities and local amenities whilst the East Coast Mainline runs through Peterborough and provides excellent links to London and the north east.

Services & Council Tax - The property is offered to the market with all mains services and oil-fired central heating.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
