A beautifully presented thatched cottage, set in the model village of Ashton. Built in the early 1900's, this Grade II listed home sits on a plot of 0.23 acres, with the home itself offering over 1000 sqft of living accommodation.
Upon approach, Honeybee Cottage sits on a fantastic corner plot overlooking the Green. The home itself, which dates back to the early 1900's, retains many original features and these have been combined with contemporary additions to create a perfect blend.
Upon entering the home, it leads off the entrance hallway and into the lounge. The original parquet flooring is retained and an open fireplace creates warmth on those cold Winter nights. The lounge is a great size and leads off to the kitchen breakfast room. The kitchen is inclusive of a Rangemaster stove, washer/dryer, dishwasher and freezer. Cabinetry at both base and eye level provide ample storage solutions and the rear garden can be accessed from here too. Completing the accommodation on this level is a study area which sits just off the lounge and WC and is a perfect little space to work from.
Upstairs there are two double bedrooms and the bathroom. Both rooms are cosy with the second bedroom benefitting from a built in wardrobe. The bathroom is beautifully presented and includes a freestanding bath, separate shower cubicle, WC and hand basin. This bathroom was formally a third bedroom and with a little ingenuity, could be turned back to a bedroom. This would allow for three internal bedrooms, with the creation of a ground floor shower room providing sanitary solutions. This home offers versatility, with the Shepherds Hut in the rear garden providing further accommodation. This offers a bedroom cum kitchenette and an en-suite too. Just across from the home and Shepherds Hut is the former washhouse or Igloo as it was previously known. This provides a great space to be used as an office or hobby room!
The garden wraps around the home and is split into two parts. Enclosed by a walled boundary, the space is excellent and ideal for entertaining. Further down the garden and separated by picket fencing are a vegetable patch and several fruit trees.
Honeybee Cottage is set in the wonderful conservation village of Ashton, which is one of the few model villages left in the country. Overlooking the green and within very close proximity to the renowned Chequered Skipper, Ashton is just a short drive from the market town of Oundle. Oundle offers a range of family run businesses and is home to Oundle school. The city of Peterborough is approximately 12 miles from here, where access to London can be achieved in just under 50 minutes.
This home is offered for sale with no onward chain and if you would like further information, please contact the office.

About this agent
Full profileProperty listings
It all began in 2013, when Daniel & Abigail Wilson opened the Wilson & Co office in central Peterborough. Having worked for a national corporate agency for several years, we wanted to do it our way. We have our own way of doing things, we use innovative marketing approaches that other agents simply can't or won't do. We get results. We're husband and wife and we take a hands-on approach to helping people. We're on hand for our clients all the time. We're approachable, helpful, and most importantly, we listen. We get many recommendations via word of mouth, which speaks volumes of the service we offer. Clients come back to us; we've sold numerous homes several times over. Landlords want investment advice from us. We'd love to talk to you about your move. Please get in touch, we'd be so happy to help.
