Summary - 2 Shortwoods Close, Raunds NN9 6NF
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Quiet cul-de-sac position with fields to the rear and excellent local schools nearby.
Five bedrooms and two bathrooms
Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of Raunds, this executive five-bedroom detached home suits growing families who want countryside access and town amenities close by. The house backs onto fields, offering privacy and direct access to local walks, yet is within a short stroll of shops, schools and commuter links.
Internally there are two reception rooms and an open-plan kitchen/dining area that opens onto a paved patio — practical for family life and entertaining. The master suite includes an en-suite and walk-in storage; three further bedrooms have built-in storage and a fifth room works well as a home office or nursery. Note there are two bathrooms for five bedrooms, which could be limiting for larger households without staggered routines.
The property has several energy-conscious features: roof-mounted solar panels (reported yearly return c. £2,500), an air source heat pump for hot water and an EV charging point, helping running costs and sustainability. The gas boiler and radiators provide main heating. The property has double glazing and an EPC rating of C.
Externally there is ample off-street parking, an integral garage plus an oversized second garage, and a large private garden with patios, pergola, pond and vegetable area. Practical upkeep is required for mature planting and pond maintenance. Be aware the property sits in an area with above-average crime statistics and a Council Tax Band E, both factors to consider for long-term running costs and security planning.
