Property Description
Nestled down a quiet lane close to the village church is Briar Cottage, a stone built detached property where the current owners have resided for over 30 years. Dating back to the 1800s, this charming and characteristic cottage has been greatly improved over the years and benefits from a two storey extension allowing additional living and bedroom accommodation. The full accommodation comprises reception hallway which has french doors to the formal dining room. The sitting room is a spacious area with full length window overlooking the garden. There is a breakfast room which enjoys a deep red wood burner and leads to the 'Bells' fitted kitchen, utility room and WC. There are two staircases, with the main set giving access to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The third bedroom has an adjoining door to the master bedroom which can also be accessed by the second staircase and has an en-suite. Outside, the landscaped garden has been beautifully maintained and offers a good variety of trees, shrubs and flowers. There is a driveway and detached stone built garage. We recommend an early viewing to appreciate the location and size of this cottage. EPC: E
Local area information
Pitsford lies 6 miles north of Northampton town centre and is home to Pitsford School which provides mixed 3-18 independent education and also runs Pitsford Hall Weather Station. Its reservoir, Pitsford Water, is the third largest in the UK and was built in 1956 to store and supply water for Northampton. The northern half is designated as a nature reserve but the reservoir is also used for sailing, bird watching, fishing and walking. The village also has a primary school and 17th century free house and restaurant The Griffin, utilising the nearby villages of Brixworth and Moulton to access further services. Pitsford itself lies just off the A508 Northampton to Market Harborough road which also links to the A14 and in turn to the M1 and M6 motorways. A regular bus service also runs to the nearby villages and to Northampton where mainline rail access is provided to London Euston (1 hour away) and Birmingham New Street. Kingsthorpe is 6 minutes away and offers a variety of shops including Waitrose and Asda.
