Situation Ashwell is a charming and attractive Conservation Village located amidst attractive rolling Rutland countryside 3 miles north of Oakham. The Market Town of Oakham with its renowned public school, caters for day to day retail requirements and has a railway station on the Midland Cross Country line between Birmingham Airport and Stansted Airport, providing hourly services to Stamford, Peterborough and Cambridge. The market towns of Uppingham and Stamford, each with excellent schools, are also within a 13 mile radius, whilst nearby Rutland Water is a water-based playground with sailing, fishing and golf clubs, along with other water based activities, picturesque walks and cycle routes.

The Property A spacious two storey family home, Telham Cottage occupies one half of a traditional stone coach house stable block of circa 1880, and is set in a discreet and private setting on the edge of the village of Ashwell. Extended and reconfigured in 2007 by the current owners, when the property was extensively refurbished, the house has a great flow to its accommodation. With so many south facing windows, it also has a feel of natural light. French doors open from two of the three spacious reception rooms, as well as from the spacious dining kitchen, directly to the property’s decked garden terrace, which lines the south face of the house for summer entertaining. At first floor level, three of the six generously proportioned bedrooms are en suite. The triple aspect principal suite also has a south facing Juliet balcony. Externally, the gardens are delightful, mature and private and lie to the south and the east of the house extending to around 0.37 of an acre in total. The driveway and double garage also allow for private and covered parking for several vehicles. An easy ‘lock up & leave’ dwelling, Telham Cottage has been a much loved principal home, but is also ideal as a holiday cottage or investment.

Accommodation The front door opens to a wide flag stoned hallway. To the left, a spacious sitting room has French doors to the garden and an open fire place. The private study, which is light and airy with double aspect windows and fitted bookcases and desk units, leads off this room. From the hallway, a triple aspect oak floored living room also has French doors to the garden. Alongside the snug adjoins the kitchen/dining room. The kitchen is 29’ long and has defined preparation and seating areas, with access to the garden. The suite incorporates extensive storage and a central island with breakfast bar, whilst the adjoining pantry and utility room offer additional storage. At first floor level, the principal bedroom is triple aspect with a south facing Juliet balcony, dressing area and ensuite bathroom. Bedrooms two and three are both also spacious double rooms with en suite bathroom suites. The further three bedrooms are also all double rooms served by a well appointed full suite family bathroom.
