Description:

Dukes Farm Dukes Farm is a superb Grade II listed local stone and thatched 18th Century farmhouse in the beautiful and extremely sought after village of Geddington, which is only a short drive from Kettering mainline railway providing access to St Pancras International within one hour. The farmhouse exterior conceals a deceptively spacious and unique interior which has retained many of the original features including exposed beams, window seats, an Inglenook fireplace and stone flagged floor. Modernisation of the property includes gas central heating, injection damp proof course and tanking, chimney lining, timber treatment and a new thatched roof. Which has been commissioned to be completed this year. The property has very generously proportioned rooms throughout incorporating an entrance hall, a light and airy living room with the original Georgian inbuilt corner cupboard and Georgian gunmetal fireplace, with folding doors out to the garden; a cosy study/family room with fabulous Inglenook style fireplace with wood-burning stove, kitchen/breakfast room complete with 'Aga' and a most impressive formal dining room with a stone flagged floor. On the first floor you will find a principal bathroom and separate shower room, together with five bedrooms, one with walk-in wardrobe and en suite facilities in a separate wing of the house making it ideal as a granny annexe or room for an au pair. Outside are well kept gardens, with a private drive leading to a large single garage and a courtyard for another car with ample space on the drive for two more cars. The traditional brick-walled side garden provides a high degree of privacy. A beautiful country residence, that provides space and a wealth of character.
