Description
Situated within a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly sought-after village of Badby, this impressive detached residence offers exceptional living and entertaining space, perfectly suited to modern family life. The property boasts a superb living room alongside a stunning kitchen/dining/family room, forming the true heart of the home. A further versatile reception room is currently utilised as a home office but would equally lend itself to use as a playroom or snug.
Upstairs there are five spacious bedrooms, three with en-suites as well as a family bathroom. The primary bedroom is stunning and benefits from the glazed patio doors leading on to a balcony to take in the countryside views. Occupying in its own grounds it has a generous paved driveway and good-sized front and rear private gardens with multiple entertaining areas. There is an integrated double garage with power and light. This property is pleasantly surprising and would be a great forever home for a growing family, well worth viewing.
Location - Badby is a rural village and civil parish two miles south of Daventry, set among woodlands and countryside with the River Nene running through it. It marks the western trailhead of both the Knightley Way and the 110-mile Nene Way walking routes.
To the north lies Badby Wood, part of the Fawsley Estate and a designated SSSI, famed for its spring bluebells and public access. The village has a primary school and the Grade II* listed St Mary the Virgin Church, dating to the 14th century. Transport links are good, with nearby rail stations at Long Buckby, Rugby, and Banbury offering connections to London, Birmingham, and beyond.
Community life is active, centred around the village pub and groups for film, music, art, fitness, theatre, history, and more.
Ground Floor - Step through a blue uPVC front door into a central hallway, where open stairs rise to the first floor and useful understairs storage is provided. From here, a door leads into the spacious lounge, featuring a multi-fuel wood burner and full width sliding doors overlooking the garden. Adjacent is a further generous reception room, currently used as a home office, which also benefits from full width sliding doors opening onto the garden.
The heart of the home is the light, bright and generously proportioned kitchen/dining/family room. Fitted with a pale grey shaker-style kitchen, it offers an excellent range of base and eye-level units, a pantry cupboard, integrated wine fridge, dishwasher and washing machine, along with space for a range-style cooker and American-style fridge freezer. A gas-fired stove creates an attractive focal point within the dining area, while a glazed door provides access out to the rear garden. A downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.
First Floor - Stairs rise to a spacious landing, providing access to five exceptional double bedrooms, all benefitting from fitted wardrobes. Three of the bedrooms enjoy the luxury of en-suite shower rooms, offering ideal accommodation for family living or guests.
The impressive primary bedroom is a true highlight, featuring double doors opening onto a private balcony with delightful views over the garden and surrounding countryside. The room is further enhanced by a dedicated dressing area and a well-appointed en-suite.
Completing the first floor is a beautifully presented family bathroom, fitted with a contemporary rain head shower with double glass sliding doors, an elegant freestanding roll-top bath with classic claw feet, and a stylish vanity unit with inset hand basin and WC.
Outside - Set back from the road, the property is approached via a generous block-paved driveway, offering ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles and leading to a double garage. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn, complemented by well-stocked shrub and planted borders, creating an attractive frontage.
A ceramic pathway runs to the front and along the side of the property, opening onto a substantial raised seating terrace that extends across the rear, ideal for outdoor entertaining. Steps lead down to a well-maintained lawn, bordered by a variety of established ornamental and fruit trees, alongside mature shrubs and flowering plants. Further enhancing the outdoor space is a decked seating area with a summer house and dedicated BBQ area, perfectly positioned to enjoy the evening sun. The garden also benefits from a workshop with power and lighting, as well as additional storage sheds located at the far end.
