STEP INSIDE The Factory, 9a Alexandra Street
This unique property started life in the Victorian times as a local shoe factory. It now stands as an extremely spacious five bedroom family home situated on an enviable plot deep in the heart of the popular town of Burton Latimer.
Description
Burton Latimer is a very popular town. With great local primary and secondary schools, it is the perfect place to raise a family. This property is nestled away in the heart of the town and just a short stroll from the high street where you can find all the usual amenities. The property is close to both Kettering and Wellingborough train station where you can be in the centre of London in less than 50 minutes.
This building started life as a shoe factory and was owner by William Harris until it was badly damaged by a fire in 1898. It continued to manufacture shoes until 1910. The property has been very tastefully converted into a splendid family home with a high-end luxury finish, for example a hand-crafted steel staircase and new replica windows throughout. There is a 23 ft Bulthaup kitchen/family room and the most impressive 31 ft lounge with views over the town. There is a Megaflow water cylinder fitted which ensures good water pressure throughout the property. The boiler was installed in 2022, it is a Worcester Greenstar 8000 Life A rated, giving the property an impressive EPC rating of C.
Upon entering the property, you are greeted with a large entrance hallway. There is a guest cloakroom leading off from this space. The kitchen/family room is a vast space. There are a number of windows and two sets of bi-folding doors leading onto the garden. You will find slate tiling to the floor and a high-quality handmade kitchen with granite worksurfaces. There are integrated SMEG appliances to include a number of ovens, dishwasher (new in 2023), gas hob and fridge. There is a separate utility room which has more storage and houses the washing machine and tumble dryer. On the first floor there are four bedrooms and a very well-appointed family bathroom. The main bedroom comes complete with its own en-suite bathroom and plenty of built-in wardrobes. One of the bedrooms on this level benefits from its own mezzanine landing giving you extra space. Bedroom three also has an en-suite bathroom.
On the second level there are a further two bedrooms (currently being used as office space). The sitting room has high vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and a number of large windows allowing in plenty of naturel light. Outside the property there is a gated front entrance and another set of double gates which leads to driveway parking for multiple vehicles.
There is planning permission to have a double detached garage built off the driveway. To the rear there is a delightful walled garden that is currently split into two sections. One section is mostly laid to lawn and the other has raised beds for growing vegetables and has a patio area too. There are new PVC water lines laid to the property and a replacement water meter.
This super family home is a mix of contemporary and industrial yet still manages to feel like a very comfortable family home.
