Set on a large plot in leafy Abington, this extended 1930s detached house blends original character with contemporary family living. The ground floor centres on an open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with glass roof, underfloor heating and French doors opening to a private rear garden, plus a dual-aspect sitting room with a log-burning stove. A spiral staircase leads to a fifth bedroom with en-suite, useful for guests or a teenager's suite.
Upstairs there are four further bedrooms, including a principal with bay window, fitted wardrobes and a modern en-suite, and a well-appointed family bathroom. The plot includes off-road parking, a garage and a recently built outbuilding with its own log-burning stove — ideal as a workshop, home office or gym. Large front and rear gardens and mature planting create privacy and outdoor space for children and pets.
Practical points to note: the property sits in a popular school area close to Northampton School for Boys and benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Council Tax is Band E and the neighbourhood records higher crime levels and notable area deprivation statistics — factors buyers should consider. EPC and some service details are listed as to be confirmed, so buyers wanting full energy or service histories should request those before committing.
This home suits growing families seeking generous accommodation, flexible living spaces and outdoor workshops, or buyers wanting a period property with modernised living areas. While well-presented and extended, there is potential for further updating in places and a need to verify utilities and energy performance documentation before purchase.
