Property Summary
Tucked into the heart of Austrey village, this substantial character home offers a rare opportunity to own a property full of history, charm and future potential.
Having been home to four generations of the same family, Applegarth is a unique village home where 15th Century character meets modern family living. Set within around a quarter-acre plot, it offers renovated accommodation alongside an exciting opportunity to restore and re imagine the original cottage.
The Details
Located in the heart of the desirable village of Austrey, Applegarth is a truly special home with a story to tell.
Having been loved by four generations of the same family, this individual detached property beautifully combines history, character and modern family living. Parts of the home date back to the 15th Century, while the more recent barn conversion, completed in 2010, has created a wonderful contrast of old and new.
At the heart of the newer part of the home is a beautiful cottage-style kitchen, breakfast and sitting room — a space designed for everyday family life. Featuring hand-built cabinetry, quartz work surfaces, a large central island, Belfast sink and impressive Lacanche range cooker, this is the room where everyone naturally comes together.
The kitchen flows into a relaxed sitting area with a feature fireplace and Jotul log burner, creating a warm and inviting space for cosy evenings. Beyond this, a light-filled garden room provides the perfect spot to enjoy views across the gardens throughout the seasons.
The original 15th Century part of the property is full of charm and character, showcasing exposed beams, original fireplaces and a wealth of period features. This side of the home now offers an exciting opportunity for renovation, allowing the next owners to restore and reimagine the space while preserving its history.
