5 bedroom house for sale

A sympathetically converted stone barn tucked away in the heart of the village, with a private south-facing plot and deceptively spacious, versatile accommodation.

INSIDE
The ground floor offers bright, well-proportioned accommodation, where vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and an abundance of natural light create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Entering through a statement arched façade, the vaulted reception hall leads to the kitchen, sleeping areas and the garden.

The kitchen and living space are centred around the garden, with windows and doors leading you outside. With underfloor heating, the kitchen is beautifully appointed and an ideal space to entertain, with French doors opening onto the Southern aspect.

Adjacent is a spectacular, vaulted reception room, featuring exposed beams and a wonderful fireplace with inset wood burning stove. French doors open from here to one of the garden’s private patio areas.

Sleeping accommodation is split across both floors, with five bedrooms in total.

On the ground floor, the sizeable principal bedroom enjoys generous proportions and a stylish en-suite. Bedrooms two and three, also located on the ground floor, are both comfortable doubles served by a family bathroom.

Upstairs, the galleried landing provides a striking transition between two further double bedrooms, each complemented by a well-appointed bathroom.

OUTSIDE
The garden is a standout feature and is completely private and south-facing. It’s been carefully landscaped to create various areas for relaxing, dining, entertaining and simply pottering. Mature planting, fruit trees and climbing roses line the grounds, while a wisteria-covered path leads to a deceptively spacious hidden lawn. A swimming pool forms the centrepiece of the garden, adding to the property’s resort-like feel.

LOCATION
Apethorpe is a sought-after rural village surrounded by open countryside and steeped in historical interest. A well-regarded village pub sits at the end of the lane, just 110 metres away from the property. Just a short drive away lies Oundle – a thriving market town known for its independent shops, well regarded schools, and strong community. For commuters, rail links from Peterborough and Corby provide connections to London and beyond, making the village perfectly positioned for a peaceful yet practical lifestyle.
