In the delightful Northamptonshire village of Islip just west of Thrapston and about 8 miles east of Kettering, stands a Grade II listed manor house dating to the 17th century, in the heart of a Conservation Area which is filled with charming, honey-coloured stone dwellings. With 7 bedrooms, 3 spacious reception rooms and a separate, large garden room, an expansive garden and paddock, and fast trains from Kettering to London taking around 45 minutes, this is a superb location for a commuter with a large family. Road links are also excellent with the A14 nearby for travelling West and East, the A1 about 15 minutes, and schools such as Thrapston Primary are less than a mile away. The well-known independent Oundle secondary is a 15 minute drive and three further leading independents schools (Uppingham, Oakham and Stamford) are within a half an hour drive.
