Description
We are delighted to offer this well-positioned detached family home, situated in the sought-after village of Weedon. The property is being offered with no upward chain and whilst the property would benefit from some modernisation, it provides a fantastic opportunity for buyers to put their own mark on the space. With generous living areas and scope for improvement, this home is perfect for those looking to create their ideal family home.
Set within a large private garden, the property offers excellent outdoor space, ideal for family gatherings. There is also ample off-road parking, providing convenient space for multiple vehicles.
Location - Weedon Village, also known as Weedon Bec, is a highly desirable Northamptonshire village located just four miles from Daventry and within easy reach of Northampton. It enjoys excellent transport links, with the A5 and nearby M1 motorway providing swift road access, and Long Buckby train station offering direct services to London and Birmingham-making it ideal for commuters seeking a more rural setting.
The village has a rich heritage, with its roots dating back to Anglo-Saxon times. Its most notable historic feature is the Royal Ordnance Depot, built during the Napoleonic era, now home to independent shops and a visitor centre. The Grand Union Canal runs through the heart of the village, offering pleasant towpath walks, while the surrounding countryside provides plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. Architectural highlights include attractive stone cottages, Victorian terraces, and the impressive 19th-century Weedon Viaduct.
Weedon offers a good mix of local amenities, including pubs, cafés, a doctor's surgery, pharmacy, and post office, as well as a popular primary school rated "Good" by Ofsted. The village has a strong sense of community, with numerous clubs and societies, regular events, and recreational spaces such as the Pocket Park and riverside walks along the Nene.
In short, Weedon Village combines heritage, community, and excellent connectivity, making it one of Northamptonshire's most attractive places to live.
