House For Sale £325,000
Set off a quiet no-through lane in the historic village of Pitsford, and accessed via a five bar gate, is this semi detached mature bungalow with a gorgeous garden and plenty of driveway parking. Little Lodge is, without doubt, a little gem. The property has been extended but still offers scope and potential for further development and modernisation, subject to the relevant planning permissions. Enter via either the hall, with its floor to ceiling, sliding door mirrored storage, or through the stable door at the back of the home, you realise that, although there are not a huge number of rooms, they are a good size and well laid out. The kitchen breakfast room and lounge are situated at the rear of the property overlooking the wonderful Mediterranean-style, terrace and mature well stocked garden beyond. Both bedrooms occupy the front of the property, with the master benefitting from a range of built in wardrobes and bay window. This is a special little property deserving of an early inspection so as not to miss out. EPC Rating: E. Council Tax Band: C
Local area information
Pitsford is a small village lying 6 miles north of Northampton. A short walk away is Pitsford Water, the third largest reservoir in the UK, built in 1956 to store and supply water for Northampton. The northern half is designated as a nature reserve, and the reservoir is also used for cycling, sailing, bird watching, fishing and walking. Brampton Valley Way, a former railway, runs close to the village and provides a recreational cycling and walking route running the entire distance to Market Harborough. Within the village is Pitsford School which provides mixed 3-18 independent education and which also runs Pitsford Hall Weather Station. The village also has a primary school, and a 17th century free house and restaurant called The Griffin.
