Property Summary
This Georgian cottage is located in East Fardon (which is around 1.5 miles outside of Market Harborough) and built in circa 1750. The wooden gates open on to a small courtyard which is low maintenance but large enough for lots of pots, table and 4 chairs (and a real sun trap as it is south facing). The door opens into a small vestibule which leads in to the dining room (approx 3.5m2). This room has a ceramic floor, wood burning stove and a beam running the length of the room and twin aspect windows (including one original window). The kitchen leads off and has been recently renovated (April 2010 at a cost of £12,000) and features solid oak worktops, numerous cupboards and drawers including a pull out larder unit, integrated fridge freezer and plumbing for dishwasher & washing machine. Off the dining room is a door leading to the lounge which is approx 4m2 and has the original oak fireplace and working open fire. The room has a main beam and three windows. The stairs lead from the dining room to first floor. This has one guest bedroom (3m2) with fully professionally fitted bedroom furniture. Next door is the master bedroom (4m2) which also has professionally fitted bedroom furniture (3 double wardrobes and a chest of drawers) and views across the open fields. The bathroom is on the ground floor and has just been renovated to include a slate floor, roll top bath and traditional matching suite (March 2010 at a cost of £4,500). The village is quite small and surrounded by lovely walks and rolling countryside. Direct trains to London (St. Pancras) that run frequently and take around an hour from Market Harborough.
