Mulberry Cottage, High Street, Toseland, St. Neots, Cambridgeshire, PE19 6RX

Mulberry Cottage is set within approximately an acre of beautifully landscaped, wrap-around gardens, enjoying spectacular south-facing views across open countryside. This stunning Grade II listed thatched cottage seamlessly marries period character features with contemporary modern comforts.

The kitchen/breakfast room, recently replaced, combines a classic farmhouse aesthetic with modern practicality. Features include granite worktops, a Belfast-style sink, underfloor heating, a walk-in pantry, and French doors opening onto a large private patio and gardens - ideal for sun worshipping, entertaining and al fresco dining.

The lounge and dining room both feature impressive inglenook fireplaces with wood-burning stoves. Throughout the property are exposed beams, cottage-style latch doors, charming nooks and crannies, low-level bedroom windows, exposed brickwork and beautifully sloping ceilings, all combining to deliver quintessential chocolate-box charm with modern comfort and a sense of peaceful countryside living.

A third reception room, filled with natural light and enjoying views across the secluded grounds, lends itself perfectly to a games room or pool room.

Upstairs, the master suite is accessed via a secondary staircase to the rear of the property and features a dressing area and newly refitted bathroom. From the main staircase, there are two further double bedrooms served by a stylish, refitted shower room.

Approached from the High Street through wooden farm gates, the sweeping driveway offers ample off-road parking before continuing to the main entrance and an oversized detached double garage, with additional garden areas flanking the drive.

Above the garage is a versatile first-floor room, ideal as a home office, studio, or children’s playroom.

The grounds are truly breathtaking featuring mature trees, a natural duck pond, and a generous patio area perfectly positioned to enjoy the far-reaching rural views.

Mulberry Cottage represents a rare opportunity to acquire a quintessential English country home, beautifully presented and ready to move into.

We were keen to move from busy London to a tranquil rural setting, and Toseland immediately captured our attention. The village’s welcoming ambience was irresistible, and discovering Mulberry Cottage was a moment of genuine delight. Presented in pristine condition on our arrival, we have since carefully enhanced the property to ensure it offers the very best of contemporary comfort while remaining true to its historic character.

The abundance of glazing allows natural light to flood throughout the house, creating a bright and uplifting atmosphere. The flexible layout provides an effortless flow, making the cottage equally suited to relaxed everyday living and entertaining guests. It has been a wonderfully hospitable home, perfectly accommodating modern working lifestyles while retaining its unique character and undeniable charm.

Over the past two years, we have undertaken a programme of sympathetic remodelling and renovation, carefully modernising the cottage while preserving its much-loved chocolate-box appeal. The central heating system has been fully replaced, both first-floor bathrooms have been renewed to a high standard and now benefit from power showers and underfloor heating, and the property has been comprehensively rewired. Throughout, the interiors have been re-carpeted and redecorated, resulting in a bright, fresh and timeless finish.

The kitchen has also been replaced and thoughtfully designed to combine contemporary functionality with a classic farmhouse aesthetic, perfectly complementing the period nature of the home.

Equal care has been devoted to the outside spaces. The driveway and rear terrace have been improved, and the cottage sits gracefully within its generous gardens, with the meadows beyond extending both the outlook and sense of privacy. Outdoor dining, quiet moments of relaxation and watching the changing seasons and visiting wildlife have been among our greatest pleasures. The surrounding countryside can be enjoyed directly from the house, with beautiful walks accessible from the doorstep.

While Toseland benefits from a valued community shop, the thriving market town of St Neots lies only a short distance away, offering an excellent range of shopping and amenities, together with fast rail services to London Kings Cross in under an hour. The A1 and the recently upgraded A14 are also easily accessible, providing excellent transport links to London, Bedford, Huntingdon, Cambridge and Peterborough.

Reluctantly we now need to say farewell to our magical home in this truly special village. We will miss not only the house itself, but also the strong sense of community and the friendships we have made here.

Agents Note:
This is a truly rare opportunity to own this exceptional countryside home. Mulberry Cottage is ready to move straight in - imagine arriving in time for summer, enjoying its glorious setting, and hosting a housewarming party that will be the envy of family and friends.
