Details:

Located on a sizeable plot extending to over 0.4 acres and offering significant potential for extension or subdivision (subject to the necessary planning approvals), this attractive 1920s dormer bungalow is constructed in the Arts and Crafts style, featuring characterful façades finished in roughcast render beneath hipped roofs, with matching dormer windows and an elegant front veranda draped in mature Wisteria.

Situated on the northern edge of the sought-after village of Blisworth, this versatile home offers flexible accommodation arranged over two floors. The ground floor includes a bright triple-aspect sitting room, a central dining room with wood-burning stove, a kitchen with adjoining pantry, a conservatory, a ground floor bedroom (or additional reception room), and a bathroom.

The property stands within established south-facing grounds, divided between productive kitchen gardens—with glasshouse, fruit cage, and substantial workshop—and a more formal lawned garden planted with a variety of mature trees. There is pedestrian access via a picket gate and pergola, and separate vehicular access to a detached double garage. The rear boundary is well screened by mature trees and shrubbery.

Location:

Blisworth is an attractive village situated approximately five miles south of Northampton and four miles north of Towcester. It is well-placed for commuting, with excellent road links to the A43 and M1 motorway (Junction 15) providing convenient access to London, Birmingham, and the wider motorway network. Northampton railway station offers regular direct services to London Euston and Birmingham New Street.

Blisworth retains much of its old-world charm, characterised by period stone cottages, a historic church, and the Grand Union Canal, which runs through the village. The canal towpaths offer excellent opportunities for walking, cycling, and leisurely recreation, with the Blisworth Tunnel and nearby Stoke Bruerne providing points of interest for those keen to explore the area's waterways heritage. An annual Canal Festival, hosted by the village, draws visitors from across the region.

The property lies to the north of the village centre and backs onto the West Coast Main with pleasant front aspect countryside views.

Local amenities include a village shop incorporating a post office and news agency, a doctors' surgery, and two well-regarded public houses, The Royal Oak and The Walnut Tree Inn. Blisworth Community Primary School serves the village and its surrounds, whilst secondary schooling is available at the Elizabeth Woodville School in Roade. A variety of independent and grammar schools in Northampton and surrounding areas are also accessible.

Agent’s Note

Please be advised that the property is located adjacent to a railway embankment. While the embankment is screened by mature trees and planting, prospective purchasers should be aware that noise from passing trains will be experienced.

Please also be advised that the property is of non-standard construction, comprising a timber frame built off a brick substructure, with an internal lath and plaster lining and an external roughcast cement render applied over expanded metal lath. This method of construction is relatively uncommon and was more typically used in inter-war and early post-war housing.

Interested parties should be aware that this type of construction may limit the availability of mortgage finance from some high street lenders. Buyers are advised to make their own enquiries with mortgage brokers or lenders before bidding and to seek independent professional advice where necessary.
