Three Bedroom Character Property For Sale in Crick, Northamptonshire
This charming, character property must have the most colourful interior on the market right now. It is in immaculate condition and ready to move into as it has no upper chain.
The current owners have done a fantastic job presenting this home as well as undertaking various other work to the property including restoring the handsome, substantial wooden front door frame.
Don't forget to take a look at the property video tour on this page to have a good look around the property before you come and see it.
As with all properties in the centre of Crick, they all tell a story, and this home is no different. In a previous life it was linked with the manor house and was originally split into three properties for the workers. It has also been noted as a wool and clothes shop during the 1950's and 60's (big thank you to Crick History Society, in particular Jim, for the information).
However, the current owners have taken the property and turned into something really special presenting the property with its character features and a modern twist.
You will note the property has UPVC sash windows but in the downstairs lounge and snug, they still have their old wooden shutters! The sash windows really help to flood the property with natural light.
Downstairs you have two sizeable reception rooms that currently used as sitting rooms however this could be changed of course – the choice is yours! Although the kitchen/diner is large enough for a table, you may decide you still want a separate dining room which this property can accommodate.
Both reception rooms have beautiful fire places with inset log burners, not that you need them at the moment but very cosy in the winter!
The kitchen/diner has been recently refitted with a variety of wood effect cupboards and units. The kitchen still has some character features including exposed beams and quarry tiles on the floor. There is plenty of space for a dishwasher, fridge freezer and washing machine. The range cooker and hood will be included in the sale too. There is also a downstairs cloakroom/WC.
The rear stable door leads you out to the sunny, south facing garden which is enclosed by a stone wall and fencing which provides you with complete privacy and take it from us, this garden is a sun trap! It's also low maintenance and great for both pets and children.
Through the back gate you will find the rear driveway with parking and a double garage that has lighting and power- it's not very often you get this with a character property in the middle of a village.
Upstairs you have three double bedrooms and what we really like about this home is how well separated the rooms are. Giving each room its own privacy. Bedroom one and three almost feel like separate wings! Perfect if you regularly have guests round (which we imagine will be happening a lot soon!).
Bedroom one has its own en-suite and there is also a large family bathroom down the hall which features a claw foot, roll top free-standing bath as well as stylish wall cladding and exposed wooden flooring.
It may be worth mentioning at this point that the property was given a make-over in the last two years and that included new carpets through-out!
The current owners have told us they chose the property because of the space and character as well as feeling like it was in a quiet and safe place. They also mentioned since living here that they have grown to love the village and its sense of community spirit.
Crick offers the perfect village lifestyle with its many walks that are right on your doorstop including Cracks Hill, Millennium Wood and of course, the beautiful Grand Union canal.
The property sits just a 60 second walk from Crick Primary School and you're within a five-minute walk of all the local amenities in the village.
You also have a local Co-Op, Post Office and a choice of three Pubs (The Wheatsheaf, Royal Oak and The Red Lion. There is also the local Deli "Pickle and Pie" (who are currently doing a beautiful selection of take away snacks by the way!).
There is the ex-serviceman's' club (Crick Club) which is a great place to have a drink too.
Crick also has many activity groups for the family including, Cubs and Scouts, football, cricket, cycling, drama and as we mentioned - a local history group.
You can even go and see the guys down at 'Sweat', the local fitness centre which sits next to the local sports pavilion that has been updated in recent years.
Crick is in the school catchment area for many local secondary schools including Guilsborough Academy, Ashlawn, Lawrence Sheriff and Rugby School.
The measurements for the property are as follows;

4.29m (14'1") x 3.35m (11')
Lounge
