House For Sale £460,000
What Could Be Better Than A New Build In A Sought-After Market Town? An immaculate nearly-new build, still in show home condition, with no annoying snags and a host of improvements. Perfect for families looking for a versatile, move-in-ready home.
No matter how good the builder, when you buy new you always get a few annoying little snags. And you probably have to put up with living on a building site for a while.
Compared to all that hassle, buying nearly new is a breeze. Even more so when the current owners have taken such great care of this 6 year old family home.
Higham Ferrers is popular with families looking for a semi-rural life but who need to get to London for work. It’s less than 15 minutes drive to the station in Wellingborough, with trains to St. Pancras taking under an hour.
You may not need to commute every day - and if you do work from home the converted detached double garage will be a major plus. If Carlsberg made home offices...the professional setup is such a different working environment to being stuck in the smallest bedroom.
The heart of a family home is the kitchen, and here the modern, spacious kitchen / diner is the place where the family will love getting together. It’s ideal for grabbing a slice of toast in the morning or catching up at the end of the day.
With French doors leading to the low maintenance back garden the rear of the property will come into its own during the summer. It's perfect for getting friends and family round for a BBQ.
If everyone gets together at the rear, the bay-fronted lounge can be more of a grown-up sanctuary to chill out and relax when the kids have gone to bed.
The property ticks the practical boxes too, with a handy utility so none of the kitchen space is wasted and a downstairs w/c. There is parking for 2 cars on the drive but if desired, the garage can easily be converted back to its former use rather than office space.
The first floor has three bedrooms - two doubles and a single that would ordinarily be earmarked as the home office.
One of the bedrooms has a stylish en-suite shower room and there’s also the family bathroom with both a bath and walk-in shower.
The top floor has a further spacious bedroom with an en-suite along with cupboard storage and a separate playroom.
It’s less than 10 minutes walk to the Market Square in the centre of town, where you’ll find a selection of independent shops, pubs & restaurants.
The Market Square hosts a popular farmers market once a month where you can pick up a range of fresh produce, along with hot drinks and delicious cakes and traybakes.
If you prefer big name retailers, restaurant chains and multiplex cinemas, Rushden Lakes is only a 5 minute drive (or a 30 minute walk) away. It has a truly unique lakeside setting for a retail park along with a number of leisure activities for children.
The Stanwick Lakes nature reserve is a similar distance, it’s just a 12 minute bike ride or 6 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.
If you want to hit the shops or catch up with friends, Wellingborough is the nearest large town, it’s around 15 minutes drive away.
Higham Ferrers Junior School (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is near the centre of town, less than 10 minutes walk away.
The Ferrers School for older kids is another “Good” school - it’s a little bit further away but still only a 5 minute bike ride or 3 minutes in the car.
This show home condition property has all the benefits of a new build home without the downsides. It’s been so well looked after and the improvements made since it was built in 2016 make it even more versatile and family friendly.
We’re expecting plenty of interest, so don’t miss your chance to see it for yourself.
