There is a three phase electricity supply and solar panels also contribute to providing domestic hot water and electricity supply. Drainage is to a klargester private septic tank.
Planning
The property was acquired by the present owners in 1993 and extended in 1991. The annex was converted to residential accommodation in 2007 and subsequently remodelled on the ground floor.
Location
Mill Cottage stands in the Ise Valley approximately mid way between the towns of Kettering and Wellingborough and ideal for access to the A14, A1, M1 link road two miles to the north and the A45 some six miles to the south. The property is convenient for access to the Midland main line due for electrification in December 2020 and accessible from both Kettering and Wellingborough stations.
