A beautiful three-bedroom Grade II Listed ironstone cottage, which has undergone recent refurbishment located in this thriving Welland Valley village.
Accommodation - Furleigh Cottage has undergone a comprehensive scheme of upgrading in recent years to include a new kitchen and ensuite bathroom, five new windows and a new front door, secondary glazing with K glass to all windows, a new Vaillant boiler, new carpets and flooring, and blinds fitted throughout. In addition, all plumbing and electrics have been updated and in 2023 there was a new straw ridge to the attractive thatch roof.
Enter this charming cottage through the new front door into the entrance hall. To the left is the Sitting room with windows to the front and side elevations, exposed beams and a door leading to the rear lobby. To the right of the entrance hall is the Study with an attractive fireplace with tiled hearth and further exposed beams. The room is light and airy with windows to the front and back. There is sufficient space for seating as well as an area which would be perfect as a dining area due to its proximity to the kitchen. There is a good-sized storage cupboard which houses the new boiler. Access to the garden is via the rear door.
The recently refitted kitchen is well equipped with an extensive range of striking shaker style eye and base level cabinetry and drawers with worktops over. Recently upgraded integrated appliances include a Smeg dishwasher, Smeg fridge, Electric Smeg cooker with induction hob and a washing machine. The updated kitchen is completed by new laminate flooring.
The rear lobby set off from the sitting room leads into the recently refurbished shower room. The stairs lead up to the first floor.
Turn right for the master bedroom, where the vaulted ceiling and exposed beams continue the character and charm. The refitted ensuite bathroom makes good use of the space and includes a panelled bath with shower attachment, pedestal wash hand basin set within a vanity unit with storage and a concealed WC. The second bedroom is generous in size, spanning the depth of the cottage with vaulted ceiling and exposed beams. From here you can access a further bedroom, which could be used as a home office or storage space. Bedrooms one and two benefit from new carpets.
Outside - A block paved driveway to the side of the cottage had new gates installed in 2023 and provides handy off-road parking and leads into the lovely, landscaped gardens that have a quintessential country cottage feel and have been ‘dog proofed’. A lawn with attractive raised bedding borders flank the driveway, with landscaped seating areas amidst the flowers which take in village views and the charm of nearby ironstone cottages. A brick outhouse, formerly a wash house, makes use for a workshop.
Location - Great Easton is considered one of the most attractive Welland Valley villages, in highly accessible but unspoilt countryside. The village has a strong community spirit, centred around an active village hall and parish church. Great Easton contains a popular destination public house, The Sun Inn, and a park, handy for those with children. A coffee shop with home store is soon to open in the village. The neighbouring village of Medbourne has a village shop and a post office.
Nearby, the market town of Market Harborough provides a good array of everyday shopping facilities including a market together with a good rail link to London St Pancras.
Excellent schooling is available in nearby at Market Harborough and Bringhurst offers an outstanding primary school.
