Brewery House is a beautifully converted former brewery, discreetly tucked away within an exclusive mews, where Georgian-inspired elegance, rich heritage and exceptional family living come together in the heart of Oundle.
The Property
Tucked discreetly away within an exclusive mews, Brewery House occupies a fascinating position within Oundle's rich history. Forming part of Oundle’s former Smith & Co. Brewery, founded in 1775, the property seamlessly blends period character with generous contemporary living.
Approached via South Road and set behind an attractive Georgian-inspired façade, Brewery House immediately conveys a sense of elegance and permanence. Beyond the front door, a welcoming reception hall provides a fitting introduction to the home, where impressive ceiling heights, large sash windows and beautifully proportioned rooms create an atmosphere of light and space throughout.
The accommodation has been thoughtfully designed and extended with modern family living in mind. A versatile dual-aspect study sits off the entrance hall and offers flexibility as a home office, library or ground-floor bedroom, ideal for multi-generational living.
At the heart of the house lies a magnificent drawing room, entered through double doors from the hall. Wooden flooring flows seamlessly through the principal reception spaces, while a handsome open fireplace with an elegant mantelpiece creates a natural focal point. French doors open directly onto a private south facing terrace, complete with a charming arbour, providing a wonderfully sheltered setting for outdoor entertaining and al fresco dining.
A short flight of steps leads to the impressive live-in-kitchen, designed very much as the social hub of the home. Finished with elegant marble tiled flooring with underfloor heating throughout and centred around a substantial island unit, the space enjoys an abundance of natural light from dual-aspect windows overlooking the garden. A gas range cooker, integrated microwave, extensive cabinetry and generous work surfaces make this an ideal environment for both everyday family life and larger-scale entertaining.
Adjoining the live-in-kitchen is a spacious utility room with excellent potential for additional storage and laundry facilities, together with a substantial cloakroom that could easily accommodate a shower if desired.
The first floor is arranged around a striking galleried landing, enhanced by a vaulted stairwell and elegant chandelier. Four generously proportioned double bedrooms provide excellent family accommodation, including two bedrooms with en suite facilities. The family bathroom is beautifully appointed and features a freestanding roll top bath, creating a luxurious retreat.
Outside, the gardens have been thoughtfully divided into distinct areas for relaxation and entertaining. A lawned garden with patio provides space for family enjoyment, while a separate courtyard garden offers a private and secluded setting. Formerly home to a plunge pool, this area presents exciting possibilities for future enhancement.
A particularly appealing feature is the detached converted garage, complete with vaulted beamed ceilings and a skylight. Most recently utilised as a games room, it offers exceptional versatility and would equally lend itself to use as a home office, gym, studio or creative workspace. Retained garage storage remains available, together with secure wooden gated access. To the front of the property, Brewery House benefits from private off-road parking within the exclusive setting of Brewery Court.
