Seller Insight The moment we first drove through the gates of Rowan House, we knew we had found something extraordinary. The sense of space, privacy and quality was unlike anything else we had seen. Set within almost an acre of beautifully established gated grounds, the property felt both impressive and wonderfully peaceful. As we stepped inside, the magnificent, curved staircase immediately drew our attention, setting the tone for a home where thoughtful design and exceptional craftsmanship can be found at every turn. What captivated us most was that Rowan House never felt like a standard executive property. The limestone and cherry wood floors, the bespoke curved walls, the stunning principal suite with its incredible dressing room and private balcony, the cinema room, reading snug and generous entertaining spaces all combine to create a home with real personality and presence. We have invested significantly during our ownership, creating a spectacular outdoor kitchen and entertaining area complete with bar, fire pit and seating, as well as extending the pond into the beautiful koi feature that has become the heart of the garden. Watching the koi glide through the water from the living room, terrace or kitchen is endlessly calming and one of the things we will miss most. The house has been the backdrop to countless celebrations with family and friends. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living space flows effortlessly onto the terraces through bifold doors, making indoor and outdoor entertaining feel seamless. The cinema room, complete with its wood-burning stove, has hosted everything from family movie nights to major sporting occasions, while the games room in the annexe has provided the perfect space for guests of all ages. Our favourite place is undoubtedly the principal suite. Enjoying a quiet coffee and fresh pastries on the balcony while overlooking the gardens on a Sunday morning feels wonderfully peaceful. The dressing room is a dream, and the luxurious en-suite creates a true retreat from the rest of the world. Rowan House has given us everything: space to entertain, space to work, space to relax and space to grow as a family. With excellent schools nearby, strong transport links and a welcoming village community, it has been an exceptional place to call home. Leaving will be incredibly difficult, but we hope the next owners will love it as much as we have. Village Information Glatton is a conservation village lying about 8 miles south-west of Peterborough and about 8 miles east of Oundle. It is a picturesque village with numerous thatched timber-framed cottages and listed buildings, including St Nicholas' Parish Church and the Addison Arms pub, winner of the Huntingdonshire Rural Pub of the Year Award. Glatton was also home to the author Beverley Nichols, who lived at Always, a 16th-century Tudor cottage, while St George's Residential Home, formerly Glatton Hall, was once the residence of publisher and poet Geoffrey Faber. At the heart of village life is the newly rebuilt Glatton Village Hall, which officially reopened in Spring 2026 following an extraordinary community-led project and more than £450,000 of fundraising. Years of planning and dedication culminated in the creation of a modern, purpose-built facility that now serves as a vibrant hub for the village. The hall hosts a wide range of activities, clubs, community events and private celebrations, providing a valuable focal point for residents of all ages and reinforcing the strong sense of community for which Glatton is known.
