Location: Overwell House sits on the western side of Mill Road, in

a beautifully secluded position. Oundle's historic Market Place is

within walking distance, as is the country park, which is set just

across the River Nene which flows beneath South Bridge. Oundle

offers a range of family run businesses, restaurants and shops, as

well as good schooling for all age groups. Peterborough lies 12

miles away and offers extensive facilities, along with main line rail

travel to London, with journey times to King's Cross from 48

minutes.

The Property: Overwell House was built in the early 1980's for the

owners, to a design by Paul Bancroft Architects. The original

design brief was to create a building that looked like a barn

conversion, so it would fit neatly with Oundle's historic buildings.

The result is a spacious and interesting house with a traditional

pan-tiled roof. The accommodation is set over two floors and the

main rooms have windows and doors to the wonderful garden.

The house has been maintained, and a new gas boiler recently

installed. However, the property has original fixtures and fittings

and is now ready for a new owner to bring it into the 21st Century,

offering the potential to create something fabulous in a very

special setting.

The property sits back from Mill Road, behind a high wall. The

drive sweeps into a parking area that has mature trees and shrubs

surrounding it. A path leads to the front door.

The hall has a tiled floor. Doors lead off to most of the rooms on

the ground floor. There is direct access to the integral garage,

which offers the potential to create a further living room. Stairs

also rise to a studio above the garage, which could serve as a fifth

bedroom.

Across the hall is the formal dining room, which has a window to

the front garden. Beside this is a full bathroom, offering the

potential for ground floor living if required.

The kitchen / breakfast room is a wonderful, light room with a

window to one side and large, glazed doors opening to the south-

facing terrace. A Rayburn is set into the chimney and there is a

range of wall and base units. An electric oven and hob are fitted. A

door leads through to the sitting room, which has plenty of glazing

and doors to the terrace, really bringing the garden in to the

home. There is an open fire.

There is a useful utility room with ample space for appliances, with

access from the garden and the main entrance hall.

The first floor is approached via stairs from the hall. The landing

has useful storage cupboards built-in. There is also access to the

large roof space, which perhaps offers conversion potential.

The master bedroom has windows to the east and the south. A

door leads to the en suite bathroom and a second door leads to

the dressing room. There is good eaves storage and crawl space

access to the studio above the garage.

The second bedroom also enjoys a dual aspect with windows to

the south and west. This room has built-in wardrobes. The third

bedroom has a window to the garden and access to the dressing

room, shared with the main bedroom.

The fourth bedroom is at the back of the house with a view to the

west. Again, this room has a built-in wardrobe. The main

bathroom is fitted with a WC, basin and shower.

There is ample parking to the front of the house, and perhaps

space for the construction of further garaging, subject to Local

Authority consents. Paths lead to either side of the house and

around to the rear garden. This clearly has been someone's

passion in the past, with a range of beautiful trees and shrubs

planted to an interesting, landscaped design. There are areas of

interest, reached via a winding path that leads from the raised

terrace beneath the pergola. The garden enjoys good privacy. The

double garage has power and light connected. It also contains the

gas fired central heating boiler.
