House For Sale £675,000
Kettering Road, Isham, Kettering NN14


Description
Your Move Hobin Roberts are delighted to offer this breathtaking, substantial Grade II listed building dating back from the mid-18th and 19th centuries. Langton Farm House is an extremely attractive dwelling, constructed from regular coursed Northamptonshire limestone with some local ironstone banding under a slate and pantile roof. The property is detached and stands in extremely private, fully enclosed grounds within the conservation area in the heart of the village.

Langton is an Old English word meaning 'long house' (Lang 'long' and tun 'enclosure/settlement') so it easy to see why the name was chosen for the original farm building however the property is now formed of an L-shape owing to the addition of the luxurious annexe built in more recent years.

Acquired by the present owners some ten years ago, the property has been considerably and sympathetically updated by them and extended to include an independent annexe and garaging, which could be easily be converted to further living accommodation subject to consent from local authorities. There is full planning consent and listed building consent for the erection of a further double garage.
Full details are available online at the Wellingborough Council website
ref: Wp/18/00493FUL and wp/18/00494LBC.

Langton Farm House is a truly impressive family home, however the large and versatile nature of it would also lend itself, subject to consent from local authorities to a two family occupation, enhanced by the separate annexe. It could also offer commercial opportunities such as a Bed and Breakfast, restaurant, or any number of craft/art or perhaps beauty businesses.

Access to the Langton Farm House's grounds is gained via double electric gates providing access to the large courtyard from the road to the front, which is fully enclosed behind a stone walled perimeter offering excellent privacy from the outside world.

The accommodation is arranged across three floors and retains a host of wonderful character features which you will immediately become aware of when entering into the grand main reception hall. The wide entrance offers access to some of the internal ground floor accommodation and leads to the stunning main staircase leading to floors one and two.

The character features are enhanced by modern luxuries including refurbished bathrooms and a stunning large kitchen incorporating quality fittings.

The property enjoys gas fired heating to radiators with supplementary underfloor heating to much of the ground floor. In addition there is a wonderful log burning fire found in the hub of the open plan dining area, that cleverly partitions the wonderful, cosy snug sitting area. The property is part double glazed with the original sash windows benefiting shutters, retained to the west elevation facing the road.

There are two staircases and two separate electric circuits which would further facilitate the property being split into two units and a separate kitchen/utility room which would be required should the property be run as a Bed and Breakfast.

Outside, the property sits gable end onto the roadway with a large south facing courtyard area to the front enclosed by high stone walls providing off road parking for several vehicles. There is also a large patio area featuring lighting, power points and a greenhouse which is currently central to the courtyard where there is provision for further landscaping. Beyond you will discover a variety of established shrubs and fruit trees. The annexe (see below) and it's two garages are accessed from this area and have the benefit of power, lighting and water.

The rear garden area is also fully enclosed and extremely private and includes a large shed/workshop. It is well established with flowers beds, shrubs and ornamental trees further featuring a tree house. The garden is complete with a patio area, with a very cool Tiki bar, perfect for entertaining guests.

Both the courtyard area and rear garden have access to a pedestrian right of way over adjoining land.
The annexe


The addition of the annexe was completed to an extremely high standard and sympathetic in styling to the main house in 2016.

The annexe offers completely separate accommodation that is detached from the main house to include a generous living area, space for a large bed as well as sitting room furniture and further benefits from a contemporary kitchen to include cooking facilities and is completed by a modern wet room/wc.

We are advised that it benefits from it's own metered services, has gas fired central heating, double glazing and quality kitchen and bathroom fittings.

Please review the floor plan, description as well as the photographs and video tour and then contact our friendly team at Your Move Hobin Roberts on with any questions or to perhaps arrange a viewing in person.

Location

Isham is a sought after and desirable village found positioned in the heart of Northamptonshire and is located within minutes of several countryside walks, whilst enjoying easy access to all major road networks.

Plans to bypass the village were put on hold due to the well-publicised financial problems of the county council but it is to be hoped that funding will become available in the future.

The population at the 2011 census was 772 people. It's name derives from the River Ise (a tributary of the Nene) which runs in the valley to the east of the village. The historic heart of Isham is a conservation area containing several historic buildings including the beautiful St Peters Church.

The village school caters for pupils to the age of eleven years, with secondary schooling at Barton Seagrave and Kettering.

The village benefits from a local store and locals enjoy the Lilac Public House, which has recently been acquired by the community and attracts guests from all over the county and beyond.

The small town of Burton Latimer is situated on the far side of the valley providing an eclectic mix of local amenities. Kettering is less than three miles north of the village providing multiple shopping and a main line train service (London St. Pancras International) and Wellingborough is four miles south with similar amenities. The recently opened Rushden Lakes Shopping Centre is just five miles south and the A14 access Junction 9 is less than one mile north of the village.
