Description

Chelton Brown are proud to present a truly rare opportunity to acquire a unique piece of Northampton’s rich history.

Dating back to around 1725, this remarkable property offers not just a home, but a story. Nestled on a quiet green in the picturesque and centrally located village of Kingsthorpe, this four-bedroom residence exudes charm and character at every turn.

Throughout the centuries, this property has been a vital part of the local community. Historical records reference a father and son duo practising "the art or mystery of woolcombing" here during the 18th century. Over time, the property has also served as a shop and a dairy, adding to its vibrant and varied past.

Step inside the welcoming entrance hall and you’re immediately struck by the warmth and heritage of the home, highlighted by the elegant tiled floor. To the right, you'll discover the generous living room — a beautiful, inviting space centred around a magnificent feature fireplace with a log burner, perfect for cosy winter evenings.

Next, the spacious dining room awaits. Bathed in natural light from its sash window, this room is ideal for entertaining friends and family. Beyond the dining area, the country-style kitchen and breakfast room offer lovely garden views and a charming, homely atmosphere — a perfect spot for morning coffee or a relaxed family meal.

From the living room, a door at the rear leads you into a more recent addition to the property: a versatile studio or garden room with French doors opening onto the garden. This area also includes a separate office space, WC, and a practical utility room — ideal for modern family life or those working from home.

Upstairs on the first floor, you'll find three beautifully appointed double bedrooms, all boasting high ceilings, original fireplaces, and characterful touches that honour the home’s heritage. The spacious family bathroom is tastefully fitted with a roll-top bath, corner shower, and stylish traditional fixtures.

The real hidden gem of the home lies at the rear of this floor the bedroom with a staircase leading to the second floor. Currently arranged as two additional double bedrooms, this expansive space offers endless possibilities — from guest suites or hobby rooms to a tranquil master retreat.

Outside, the charm continues. The delightful courtyard garden is adorned with roses and passionflowers that gently sway in the breeze, creating a peaceful haven. A staircase leads to a raised terrace — the perfect suntrap to enjoy a glass of wine on a warm summer evening or simply unwind in serene surroundings.

In summary, this is a rare opportunity to purchase a substantial, character-filled home with a remarkable story to tell. Offering a wealth of space, original features, and tranquil outdoor living — all in a sought-after village setting — this home is ready for its next custodian.
