Full Details for 3 Bedroom Detached for sale in Oakham, LE15 :
Tom Cottage is a charming Grade II listed thatched cottage that has recently been restored to create a light-filled home combining period character with stylish contemporary updates and modern fittings. Believed to date from the early seventeenth century, the cottage is built of mellow local stone with a mix of thatch and slate roofing and the exterior facade has all the charm and appeal of the archetypal English country cottage. Inside, the attractive light-filled rooms retain many period features including solid oak beams, pretty cast-iron fireplaces and two impressive inglenook hearths. More recent additions such as window-seats in the deep windows, wood-burning stoves, oak shutters and solid wood floors have further enhanced the character whilst updating the property to make it a welcoming and practical family home. The renovation also included rewiring the house and replacing the thatch, whilst the fitting of modern systems such as under-floor heating throughout the ground floor, an air source pump for the hot water and heating and an electric AGA with AIMS programming make Tom Cottage an energy-efficient home fit for the twenty-first century. Outside, the attractive original outbuildings have been renovated to create further space with an office, workshop and boot store whilst an oak-frame Car Port sits alongside the south-west facing terrace and raised garden. With its delightful village setting, lovely interior features and sunny outdoor spaces, Tom Cottage is an appealing period home in an excellent location close to Rutland Water.
