Description
Nestling in the desirable village of Gayton, and enjoying stunning views over the rolling Northamptonshire countryside, this substantial detached property sits on a large plot with a mature and well-kept walled garden and is presented in lovely condition throughout. Offering in excess of 2,800 sq ft, the property includes two reception rooms, a spacious kitchen/breakfast room, utility and study in addition to four bedrooms, one of which is en-suite, two separately accessed first floor rooms, one with a balcony looking over the views and a second-floor spacious attic space with velux style windows, both of which have great potential subject to any required planning conditions. The property further benefits from a double garage and driveway parking.
Gayton - The pretty village of Gayton is situated about five miles south west of Northampton town centre, about two miles from the A43 leading to the M40 and about three miles from Junction 15a of the M1. Train stations at Northampton and Milton Keynes offer services to London Euston.
Amenities in the village include primary school, parish church, village hall, playing fields, and a public house. The Grand Union Canal passes close by. Leisure facilities can be found at Sixfields Leisure Centre area in Northampton where there is a multiplex cinema, supermarket and restaurants.
Sporting activities in the area include rugby, hockey, tennis, netball and cricket at the nearby Towcestrians Sports Club, golf at Silverstone and Whittlebury Hall, sailing at Draycote Water, Pitsford and Hollowell Reservoirs, and of course the world famous motor racing at Silverstone.
Ground Floor - The beautifully presented ground floor accommodation extends to entrance hall with cloakroom off, sitting room with patio doors to the garden. The sitting room leads into the dining room and on into the kitchen/breakfast room that can also be accessed from the entrance hall. The kitchen has a bespoke range of fitted units and integrated appliances, and a door leads to the utility room. Lastly, from the entrance hall the study can be accessed. In the sitting room, a staircase leads to two first floor rooms, one with a balcony overlooking the stunning view. Both rooms have great potential, perhaps as a master bedroom suite, or a bedroom and family room.
First Floor - The master bedroom is en-suite; there are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom. From one of the bedrooms, a staircase leads to the attic space.
Second Floor - Running across the top of the property is a substantial attic space, part of which is a storage area. There are two velux style windows fitted, and this room again has great potential, subject to any planning requirements.
Outside - The property sits in a secluded location in St Marys Court and is approached by a driveway leading to the double garage and front door and providing ample parking. The front garden is edged with mature trees and shrubs, and a courtesy gate leads to the rear garden.
To the rear of the property, the mature and well-kept garden is walled, and mostly laid to lawn with thoughtfully planted and well-tended shrubs, bushes, and trees. From the balcony and first floor windows, the view reached far and wide over the roiling Northamptonshire countryside.
