Step into the timeless elegance of Herons Rest, a beautiful Grade II listed chocolate-box cottage nestled in the picturesque heart of Swithland village. This extraordinary stone and thatched home seamlessly blends rich historic charm with luxurious modern living, creating a home of unrivalled character and sophistication.

The accommodation is as generous as it is stylish, featuring a sizeable main lounge with bi-folding doors to the garden, a versatile study, a well-appointed utility room, cloakroom/WC, and a cosy fifth double bedroom/snug. A luxurious ground floor bathroom and an additional shower room add further flexibility for modern family living.

The Gardens & Grounds
Set behind electric gates, a sweeping gravel driveway leads to a collection of stone outbuildings currently styled as a home gym, bar, and garden store, adding both practicality and lifestyle appeal.

The gardens are truly spectacular, featuring meticulously curated cottage-style planting, a spacious patio terrace ideal for outdoor entertaining, a quaint summerhouse, manicured lawns, and a serene stream with beautiful stone steps leading down to the water’s edge.
This captivating home is a rare opportunity and early viewing is essential to appreciate the remarkable quality, character, and lifestyle Herons Rest has to offer.
