High Street, Titchmarsh, Kettering, Northamptonshire, NN14 3DF

The Property Believed to date from the 16th century, this exceptional Grade II Listed thatched cottage occupies an enviable position in the heart of the sought-after village of Titchmarsh.

Constructed of local stone beneath a traditional thatched roof, which was renewed in 2021, the property has been thoughtfully refurbished and sympathetically extended to create a home that effortlessly combines historic character with contemporary family living.

Rich in period detail, the original cottage retains an abundance of architectural features synonymous with its heritage.

Exposed ceiling beams, flagstone floors, mullioned windows and an impressive inglenook fireplace combine to create an atmosphere of warmth and authenticity, whilst the carefully considered extension introduces light-filled living spaces perfectly suited to modern lifestyles.

A welcoming entrance hall provides an elegant introduction to the home, leading through to the principal reception rooms.

The dining room is particularly atmospheric, centred around the striking inglenook fireplace with its gas-fired log-effect stove and framed by a delightful window overlooking the garden.

Adjoining this are a study and an additional reception room, offering excellent versatility as a music room, snug or home office.

The contemporary living room forms a superb extension to the original cottage and is undoubtedly the heart of the home.

Flooded with natural light from expansive bi-fold doors opening onto the terrace, this beautifully proportioned space has been designed for both relaxed family living and effortless entertaining.

Underfloor heating and a feature gas fireplace provide year-round comfort, whilst a discreet Stiltz home lift offers direct access to the first floor, introducing an additional layer of flexibility and future-proofed living.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to complement both the age and character of the house.

Timeless Shaker-style cabinetry is paired with elegant quartz work surfaces and a traditional seven-oven electric Aga, whilst modern conveniences include a Quooker boiling water tap and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances.

A separate utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor provides five beautifully proportioned bedrooms, offering flexible accommodation for families and visiting guests alike.

Four are generous doubles, with two bedrooms connected by a well-appointed Jack and Jill bathroom featuring a Jacuzzi bath and separate shower, creating an ideal guest suite or alternative principal bedroom, particularly when combined with lift access from the ground floor.

The remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, while a fully boarded loft with power and lighting provides excellent additional storage. Outside, the property continues to impress.

The enclosed rear garden provides a private and manageable setting, with sweeping areas of lawn complemented by a substantial paved terrace, perfectly positioned for al fresco dining and summer entertaining.

A particular highlight is the beautifully crafted Crown Pavilion garden room, creating an exceptional additional reception space equally suited to entertaining, relaxing or home working.

A workshop provides valuable practical storage, whilst ample off-road parking for several vehicles completes this outstanding village home.

Combining centuries of history with thoughtfully integrated modern comforts, this is a home of exceptional charm and distinction, offering beautifully balanced accommodation within one of East Northamptonshire's most desirable villages.
