Boughton Park Boughton, Northamptonshire, NN2

Stable Cottage is unique and a real lifestyle property set in the grounds of the historic Boughton Park Estate. The location is idyllic and approached via two impressive entrances, one with the original Falconers Tower that leads to beautiful parkland that borders onto open fields and the other via the the old part of the village of Boughton. The property itself is adjacent to Boughton Hall.

This attractive Northamptonshire stone house with its mullioned windows and leaded glass panes, is set in a quintessential English country garden which is south west facing and completely private extending to approximately a quarter of an acre. The garden is a tranquil and lovely suntrap to entertain and unwind from the modern stresses of life.

The house is accessed via a lovely brick paved and walled courtyard patio, the front door opens into the entrance hall which is lovely and bright with a stone flagged floor and beamed ceiling plus a guest cloakroom. On the right is the dining room which has windows to the front and side, stone flagged floor, a fireplace with wood burner and really good ceiling height with beams. An open archway leads into the country style kitchen which is fitted with an extensive range of distressed solid French oak units with integrated appliances, a terracotta tiled floor and again high ceiling with beams and also a window overlooking the garden. At the end of the hallway is the reception room which is a great size and has a deep box bay window to the front overlooking the gardens, again a high ceiling with beams and an impressive fireplace with wood burner.

Stairs rise to the first floor landing which is flooded with natural light from the overhead domed skylight and side window and a high ceiling with beams. There are two good size double guest bedrooms, each with a period fireplace and both with lovely views over the garden, there is also a modern shower room. The main bedroom is an impressive size with a lovely outlook to the front over the gardens and parkland. This large room has the benefit of an en suite bathroom which has a large size double ended bath with shower over.

To the front of the house, gates open from the estate's private road onto its gravelled driveway providing parking for at least four vehicles leading to the attached double garage. The garage has a further storage area at the rear with stairs up to the first floor room which although currently used for storage lends itself to being used as a home office or gym. There is plenty of headroom with windows and roof lights already in place with open views over the gardens. This room has unlimited potential, and it might also be possible subject to planning to access and open a doorway from the main reception room to create another bedroom or studio.

Lying to the front of the house is the south-west facing garden with a large formal lawn edged by mature trees and herbaceous borders and is totally fenced in. There is a covered outside sitting area and a summer house covered with rambling roses and jasmine. The owners have created many seating areas from which to enjoy the tranquillity of this unique setting. To the side of the house is a further walled and paved courtyard. All in all, the garden is a pure delight nestling and blending into the stunning parkland of Boughton Park and is a real nature lovers paradise. The parkland grounds also have its own cricket pitch and pavilion which adds to the typically English village feel of this magnificent setting.
