Beautifully refurbished stone cottage in the heart of Kings Cliffe

This beautifully presented stone-built cottage occupies an attractive position within the highly sought-after village of Kings Cliffe. Recently refurbished to a high standard, the property blends the charm and character expected from a period home with stylish contemporary finishes perfectly suited to modern living.

With replacement windows and doors installed in 2024 alongside a newly fitted kitchen and bathroom, the property offers a turnkey opportunity equally suited as a full-time residence, luxury weekend retreat or an attractive holiday let investment. The manageable accommodation, low-maintenance courtyard garden and exceptional lifestyle offering nearby make this an ideal lock-up-and-leave property for those looking to enjoy the very best of village and country living.

The property opens into a beautifully presented open plan living and dining room. Full of warmth and character, the living area is centred around an attractive wood burning stove creating a cosy focal point ideal for relaxing evenings throughout the year. Offering space for both comfortable seating and a well-defined dining area, exposed stonework, traditional detailing and wooden flooring combine to create a welcoming and stylish living space.

To the rear, the recently refitted kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with contemporary cabinetry, quality work surfaces and integrated appliances, providing both practicality and a sociable setting for everyday living and entertaining, whilst direct access to the courtyard garden enhances the seamless connection between inside and out.

The ground floor accommodation has been carefully updated to provide a light, stylish and low-maintenance environment ideally suited to modern lifestyles whilst retaining the property's original charm.

The first floor continues the high standard of presentation found throughout the home. The principal bedroom is a beautifully proportioned and restful space enjoying plenty of natural light and character features.

A further double bedroom provides versatility for guests, home working or additional accommodation, making the property equally appealing for personal use or as a premium holiday let.

Serving the first floor is a recently refurbished contemporary bathroom finished with modern fittings and elegant tiling, complementing the overall quality and finish of the property.

To the rear of the property is a private enclosed courtyard garden enjoying a wonderful sun-drenched aspect, creating an attractive outdoor space perfect for alfresco dining, morning coffee or relaxing after a day exploring the surrounding countryside and Rutland Water.

Designed for ease of maintenance, the outside space perfectly complements the lock-up-and-leave lifestyle appeal of the property whilst still offering an attractive setting for entertaining and enjoying the warmer months.
