SELLER INSIGHT

The small, traditional, village of Old is just a few minutes from Northampton and here on this small development of qualitative, exclusive, properties is the location for this spacious, pristine, family home. It has been the treasured family home for its present owners since it was built in 2001.

After living and working in another country, for professional reasons, the owners were returning to the UK into this area. Paramount in their search for a property, was access to first rate schools and this house and its location was ideal for them. This classic, stylish, home does offer brilliant accommodation which has been beautifully maintained and updated during their time here. Rooms are bright and spacious, and the layout of the house offers many options on its use. Such space enabled the four children of the family to pursue individual hobbies and pastimes, along with quiet areas for study, all of which has been an enormous plus for the owners, plus the house has adapted to their changing needs as they grew into adulthood. One of its special rooms is the spacious kitchen/ dining/family room which is very much the hub of family life and is where everyone gathers. This room, together with the main reception room, opens out onto the patio and on into the garden, thereby presenting a sumptuous indoor/outdoor living space and brilliant when the owners are enjoying the company of friends and family. The private garden is a haven of peace and tranquillity and is a place to enjoy quiet relaxation after a busy day.

Although a compact village, it is friendly and sociable with many events taking place here, alongside opportunities to enjoy a host of interesting activities. The village has a thriving cricket team and other sport and leisure facilities are close by. The choice of schools, which was of prime importance to the owners when they came to live here, has proved to be excellent. There are shops locally, but a wider choice is available a little further afield in locations, such as Leicester, Milton Keynes or Market Harborough. Both road and rail links are very good, with Kettering being where the main line station is located which offers a journey time into St Pancras of fifty-five minutes.

After enjoying family life in this brilliant house in this splendid location, the owners are moving to another part of the country but know that whoever decides to live here will enjoy life here.”*
