Gwash Cottage, Main Street, Great Casterton, PE9

This charming Grade II listed Georgian cottage, dating back to between 1710 and 1830 is situated in the heart of the village of Great Casterton and is a rare find, offering character, space, and stunning surroundings.

The home was thoughtfully extended in 2018 to create a spectacular open-plan kitchen and living area. With vaulted ceilings, an abundance of natural light, bi-fold doors leading to the rear garden, and stone floors with underfloor heating, this space is the heart of the home. A cosy wood-burning stove further enhances the ambience of this modern yet characterful extension. The extension also includes a well-equipped utility room, a WC, and a storage room that could easily be used as a pantry or cloakroom.

The cottage’s original features shine in the formal dining room, complete with a Georgian fireplace, and the living room, where a log burner and a stone-walled reading nook add warmth and character. Upstairs, there are three spacious bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a small walk-in wardrobe, Bedroom 2 features an original fireplace and Bedroom 3 includes a built-in wardrobe. The large family bathroom offers a whirlpool bath, a separate shower, a wash basin, a WC, and an airing cupboard housing a gas-fired combi boiler for efficient heating and easy access.

Outside, the southeast-facing garden stretches down to the River Gwash and includes private riverfrontage and a jetty, which are perfect for enjoying the views or taking to the water. The beautifully landscaped garden also features a glass and brick summerhouse, two storage sheds, and a spacious patio ideal for entertaining. Feature lighting, controlled by dusk sensors, illuminates the exterior and garden, creating a magical atmosphere in the evenings.

The property is secured by CCTV cameras installed at the front, side, and rear, ensuring peace of mind for residents.

Located just 2.5 miles from Stamford, the cottage offers peaceful village living with convenience. Great Casterton offers a welcoming pub, excellent primary and secondary schools, a vet, and nearby amenities such as a garden centre, farm shop, and café. For commuters, the A1 is easily accessible, and trains from Peterborough can take you to London Kings Cross in under 45 minutes.

With no onward chain, this is a home ready to move into and enjoy. It’s a unique opportunity to own a beautiful historic cottage in an exceptional setting.
