About this property
Tucked away within an attractive and peaceful courtyard setting, 3 The Stables is a beautifully presented period home, thoughtfully renovated throughout to create a calm and welcoming retreat.
Combining original character with a soft, neutral interior, the property has an immediately tranquil feel and would make an appealing permanent home, weekend retreat or equally, a charming Airbnb opportunity. Outside, there is a pretty, well-stocked garden, while a separate single garage provides useful additional storage.
Step Inside
A pretty brick-paved pathway leads to the stable door and into the welcoming sitting room, where exposed stonework reflects the building's period origins. A deep-set window provides lovely views across the garden, while a central fireplace creates a natural focal point. Beneath the open staircase, a useful storage cupboard provides practical space without compromising the character of the room.
The kitchen is both practical and inviting, with a range of wall and floor-standing cabinetry, generous preparation space and space for white goods. There is also ample room for a good-sized dining table, creating a lovely space for relaxed meals and entertaining.
And So To Bed...
Upstairs, the principal bedroom is of a generous size with built-in wardrobes, while across the landing, the second bedroom is currently arranged as a study but would work equally well as a guest bedroom or additional living space. The family bathroom is well appointed, with an attractive suite complemented by contemporary wall tiling.
Step Outside
Outside, the property enjoys a particularly attractive setting overlooking the charming walled courtyard. The garden is a real highlight, being both pretty and well stocked, with a peaceful outlook that complements the character of the house. There is plentiful parking within the courtyard, together with a separate single garage, positioned en bloc with the neighbouring garages and offering useful additional storage.
A characterful home in a wonderfully peaceful setting, combining period charm, a beautifully calm interior and a pretty private garden, while being conveniently positioned for enjoying Wansford and the surrounding countryside.
