There is excellent local schooling, including St Loys Primary School (Weedon Lois), Chenderit Comprehensive (Middleton Cheney), Sponne School (Towcester) and Northampton School for boys. Preparatory schools include Carrdus (Overthorpe), Winchester House (Brackley), St. Johns Priory (Banbury) and Beachborough (Westbury).

Description
Garden Cottage is a quintessential English thatched cottage. It is Grade II Listed and believed to date back to the 1600s. The current owner has been there for over 20 years, and has very much enjoyed being part of a lovely village community. The property has been well maintained over the years, and has the potential to be further enhanced, to create a fabulous family home.
The property is accessed at the rear, via the kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen has a quarry tiled floor and a good range of units, including a very useful larder. The Stanley oil fired range is used for cooking, and also for heating, and hot water. A door leads to the first floor.
The sitting room has an open fireplace, window seats and a door to the garden. This leads to the dining room, with wooden floor and ceiling beams.
Completing the ground floor is a useful study/playroom, cloakroom/wc and store/utility area.
On the first floor there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Gardens
The gardens are well established, with lawned areas, mature trees and flower borders. There are several terrace areas, the perfect places to relax and entertain. A small pond provides an interesting feature. There are several garden stores and a summer house. The double garage has electric roller shutter doors, with good off-street parking.

All fixtures, fittings and furniture such as curtains, light fittings, garden ornaments and statuary are excluded from the sale. Some may be available by separate negotiation.
