A deceptively spacious four-bedroom period cottage set on the edge of Caldecote with open countryside views. The property combines character features — exposed beams, a flagstone-floored kitchen with an Aga and a wood burner in the sitting room — with family-sized living across three floors. The kitchen/dining room opens via bifold doors onto a patio and mature lawned garden, and a powered garden studio provides a useful home office or hobby space.
Sleeping accommodation includes a ground/first-floor arrangement that works well for family life: a master bedroom with en-suite, a second en-suite bedroom, two further double bedrooms and a generous family bathroom. Practical additions include a utility/boot room, cloakroom, single garage and driveway parking for several vehicles. The location is convenient for Towcester amenities, local primary schools and Sponne School at secondary level, with good road and rail links to Northampton and Milton Keynes.
Buyers should note a number of material considerations. The house has an Energy Performance Rating of F, is oil-heated via a boiler and radiators, and the solid brick walls are assumed to have no built-in insulation — upgrading heating and insulation will be needed to reduce running costs. Council Tax is band E and local recorded crime is above average for the area. While well presented, the property’s period construction and services should be surveyed if modern efficiency or accessibility are priorities.
In short, this is a large, characterful family home in a prosperous rural setting offering excellent indoor-outdoor flow, workspace and parking — well suited to families seeking countryside living close to town, but requiring investment to improve energy efficiency and long-term running costs.
