2 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

Details:
Situated in the heart of Blisworth, this well-presented Grade II listed cottage, believed to date from the sixteenth century, is constructed of hewn limestone and ironstone beneath a steeply pitched tiled roof, with two brick chimney stacks serving open fireplaces in both principal reception rooms. A sympathetic late twentieth-century extension to the rear provides additional accommodation while preserving the property’s traditional character.
Internally, the cottage offers two double bedrooms, two generously proportioned reception rooms—each with distinctive fireplaces—a large galley-style kitchen, bathroom, and separate cloakroom.
Externally, the property benefits from off-road parking to the front and an enclosed rear garden that has been thoughtfully landscaped. A raised terrace enjoys a sunny aspect, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, with steps leading down to a lawn bordered by established shrubs and perennials. A circular stone well with a gabled tiled canopy and chain pulley provides a charming focal point, while a row of trained pear trees climbs trellising along the limestone boundary wall to the rear. Two timber garden sheds offer practical storage solutions.
