The Old Forge – Character, Craft & Countryside Charm in the Heart of Ravenstone - Common Street, Ravenstone, Olney, MK46 Once home to the village forge and post office, The Old Forge is a Grade II listed, 3/4- bedroom stone cottage steeped in history and full of character.

Ground Floor -Cottage Charm & Countryside Character At the heart of the home is the former forge, now a striking sitting room with a vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, and a wood-burning stove.

From here, the layout flows into a traditional dining room and a quarry-tiled kitchen with granite worktops and underfloor heating.

A spacious family room provides additional space for hobbies, relaxing, or working from home.

Meanwhile, the playroom offers plenty of flexibility for modern family life and could easily function as an additional bedroom or dedicated study.

The principal bedroom is located downstairs, offering a peaceful, private retreat with its own garden access, large bathroom, and built-in storage.

First Floor - Rural Views & Quiet Seclusion Upstairs, two further double bedrooms offer views of the gardens or surrounding fields, served by an additional bathroom, finished with Villeroy & Boch fittings, a roll-top bath, and stylish updates.
