Renovated five-bedroom detached house with large kitchen/diner and solar panels.
5 double bedrooms with 2 en suites and family bathroom
This recently renovated five-bedroom detached house sits on a large corner plot with Northampton Road frontage, offering generous living for a growing family. The ground floor centers on a 24ft open-plan kitchen/diner with bi-fold doors to the garden, plus multiple reception rooms and a converted garage now used as a party/bar room. Solar panels and recently replaced windows and bathrooms reduce running and maintenance concerns.
Upstairs provides five double bedrooms including two en suites and a family bathroom — practical bedroom sizes across an average-to-large overall footprint (c. 2,163 sq ft). The long private driveway and side entrance provide off-street parking for several vehicles; mains gas central heating and mains drainage are fitted throughout. Broadband speeds are fast and the property sits close to local schools and green walking routes toward Rushden Lakes and Stanwick Lakes.
Buyers should note some material negatives: the area records higher-than-average crime and the property is in an expensive council tax band. The prominent Northampton Road frontage gives good street presence but may bring traffic noise for front-facing rooms. The garage has been converted, so there is no internal garage parking — parking relies on the driveway.
Overall, the house will suit families wanting roomy, turnkey accommodation with modern fixtures and outdoor space, who are comfortable with a busier roadside location and the local cost-of-living footprint. The freehold tenure and energy-saving solar panels add practical appeal for longer-term ownership.
