- THE WOOL HOUSE, , LITTLE STREET, SULGRAVE, BANBURY, WEST NORTHAMPTONSHIRE, 677000, 22/04/2022
A charming period property offering great potential, in a desirable village location with generous plot. In all about 0.29 acres. No onward chain.
Situation
The Wool House is situated in the popular village of Sulgrave, with a view of Sulgrave Manor to the front and a fabulous garden to the rear. Sulgrave is a thriving village with a community shop, post office and pub, as well as renowned Sulgrave Manor, the ancestral home of George Washington's family. The village is well served by local primary and secondary schools in Culworth and Middleton Cheney, along with preparatory/senior independent schools including Winchester House, Carrdus, Tudor Hall, Bloxham, Stowe, Rugby and Northampton High School. Nearby Banbury and Brackley provide a comprehensive range of leisure and shopping facilities, plus easy access to the national motorway network and mainline train services (Banbury to London Marylebone 55 minutes).
Description
The Wool House is a charming detached Grade II Listed stone cottage, dating back to circa the early 18th century. It retains many original features, including flagstone floors, window seats and latched doors. It is now in need of sympathetic updating and modernisation, but provides an exciting opportunity to create a fabulous family home in a desirable village location, with a generous garden and countryside views.
The property has an interesting history, being erected on the site of an earlier building, where in late Medieval times Excise Men checked bales of wool, being a very important commodity, creating the wealth of many areas of England, in the 18th Century.
The entrance hall, with flagstone floor, leads to the kitchen/ breakfast room with a good range of units and stone surround fireplace, with attractive Delft tiles. The sitting room also has a flagstone floor and feature brick and wood panelled fireplace and is dual aspect with views to the rear garden. A useful utility/boot room with adjacent wc completes the ground floor, with additional door to the side. On the first floor the master bedroom is triple aspect, with views over to Sulgrave Manor to the front, and the garden and countryside to the rear. There are two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Outside
The garden is a real feature of the property. It is partly walled, with a good sized lawned area, with mature trees and shrubs, providing a perfect blank canvas to create a fabulous space to relax and enjoy the surrounding countryside. A greenhouse and potting shed provide the structures needed to create a bountiful vegetable garden. There is parking to the side of the property with a single garage.
