House For Sale £375,000
Spacious & Versatile Modern Family Home With Bags Of Potential. This four bedroom Persimmon detached is a perfect blank canvas to create a stunning family home on a popular estate at the edge of the Nene Valley.
Built by Persimmon in 2002, this substantial family home has been very well maintained by its owners. It’s perfect to live in as it is but with plenty of scope to redecorate and make your own.
But you may have ambitions to create the ultimate 21st century family home - one that’s designed to fit our busy modern lives.
It has a traditional ground floor layout, with a spacious bay-fronted lounge that runs from front to back and a separate dining room and kitchen.
But things have moved on since 2002 and there’s plenty of potential to remodel the layout and create a more open plan cooking, dining and socialising space. One that’s much more in keeping with hectic family life in 2022.
It’s such a spacious property you wouldn’t need to extend to achieve a stunning transformation - but the large back garden gives you room to do so (subject to planning permission, of course).
Elsewhere the ground floor has plenty of practical appeal, with a study, a downstairs w/c and a handy utility giving access to the double garage.
The garage also gives you options if you’re not afraid of getting the builders in.
Nobody stores cars in the garage these days (especially when you’ve got a drive with an ev charging point).
So why not put the garage to good use - rather than consigning it to being a place for plastic storage boxes and gym equipment you never use?
Upstairs has four bedrooms (the master bedroom has an en-suite shower room) along with the family bathroom.
This popular estate is really handy for getting out into the Nene Valley countryside. You can be pedalling or running down the quiet country lanes in only a couple of minutes.
If you know where you’re heading you'll soon find yourself at the Wetlands Nature Reserve - or continue a little further to Rushden Lakes and reward your efforts with a Heavenly Dessert!
Being such a family friendly property it’s important to be close to good schools.
Both Irthlingborough Infants and Juniors (both ‘Good’ schools, according to Ofsted) are less than 5 minutes drive away.
For older kids, Huxlow Science College is less than 10 minutes in the car or a 10 minute bike ride away.
It’s a 25 minute walk (or a 5 minute drive) to Irthlingborough High Street. It has everything you’ll need day-to-day, with a range of local pubs, shops & takeaways, a Co-op and even an Aldi.
If you prefer big name retailers, restaurant chains and multiplex cinemas, Rushden Lakes is around the same distance away. It's only a 10 minute drive if you don't feel like getting your steps in.
Stanwick Lakes nature reserve is even closer, a 10 minute bike ride or 5 minutes away by car. It has something for every fitness level, with over 7 miles of footpaths, regular fun runs throughout the year and a choice of more sedate activities such as birdwatching or fishing at the nearby Stanwick Fisheries.
Wellingborough has a Mainline train station with regular trains to St. Pancras in under an hour.
We’re expecting plenty of interest from discerning families who can see the potential, so don’t miss out – call to arrange a viewing.
