Description

Three Bedroom Detached Period Property For Sale in Crick, Northamptonshire.

Ivy Cottage is a truly charming three bedroom detached period home tucked away on a quiet no-through lane in the heart of the sought-after village of Crick – and it comes with a fascinating family history, a sizeable, beautifully private rear garden, and a generous additional plot of land opposite measuring approximately 3,000 sq.ft.

This much-loved family home has been in the same family for over 100 years, passed down through generations. It’s not just a home, but a slice of village history. Ivy Cottage has certainly played a colourful role in the community.

Step inside and you’ll be greeted by all the character you’d expect from a home of this era – exposed ceiling beams, a cast iron range in the dining room, charming brace and latch doors, and lovely stonework and brickwork throughout. The entrance hall gives way to two warm and welcoming reception rooms. The 17ft lounge enjoys natural light from both ends with windows to the front and double doors opening out onto the rear garden – and a striking stone-built fireplace takes centre stage. The 17ft dining room is full of period charm, with exposed stonework, an original decorative range, and built-in storage cupboards.

To the rear of the cottage you’ll find a traditional cottage-style kitchen fitted with light oak units, tiled flooring and three windows overlooking the garden. A stable door leads directly to the patio – ideal for alfresco dining. Off the kitchen is a practical cloakroom with WC, basin, space for laundry appliances, and the five year old Worcester oil-fired boiler.

Upstairs there are three double bedrooms – each with their own character. The main bedroom is flooded with light from three windows and features a lovely cast iron fireplace and an en-suite shower. The second bedroom has another original fireplace, while bedroom three has views over the rear garden and to the side. The family bathroom is fitted with a classic white suite including a bath with Victorian-style taps, WC and vanity basin.

Outside, the south-facing garden is a real delight – low maintenance but beautifully landscaped, with a large paved entertaining area and mature trees, shrubs and borders that offer a high degree of privacy. There’s a lovely seating pergola tucked away to one side and rear gated access. The garden was even featured on the BBC’s Charlie’s Gardening Neighbours in 2001, when it was transformed into a Japanese garden complete with tea house. Some of the striking rocks in the garden were craned in, much to the delight of the family, who kept the biggest boulders from making the final cut!

As if the cottage and garden weren’t enough, directly opposite the house is a further parcel of land measuring approximately 3,000 sqft. This generous, secluded plot offers exciting potential – it is used as a driveway currently but could house a garage, a home office or studio (subject to planning), or simply as an addition to the main garden. With mature hedging for privacy and a wide access, it’s a rare find in a village centre and provides fantastic flexibility for future use. We would like to remind everyone that 3,000 sq.ft is an approximate size.

Chapel Lane itself is one of Crick’s hidden gems – a peaceful, tucked-away lane yet just a short walk from the village amenities, countryside walks, the canal, and excellent road links. Crick is well known for its welcoming community, primary school, Co-op, Post Office, three pubs, and popular annual scarecrow and music festivals.

Whether you’re looking for a character home to settle into or a unique opportunity to create something special, Ivy Cottage is packed with personality, and possibility plenty of stories to tell.

Crick Village

Crick is a sought-after village with a vibrant community spirit.
 
It offers the perfect village lifestyle with its many walks right on your doorstep, including Crack's Hill, Millennium Wood and of course the beautiful Grand Union Canal.
 
You also have a local Co-op, Post Office and a choice of three pubs (The Wheatsheaf, Royal Oak, and The Red Lion - all within walking distance,) also there is the Ex-Servicemen's Club (Crick Club) which is a great place to have a drink.
 
Pickle and Pie, the local deli does a fantastic range of breakfasts and lunches to eat in or take away - perfect if you're working from home and want to nip somewhere for a coffee and a sandwich (their Scotch eggs are amazing too by the way!)
 
Crick also has many activity groups for the family including Cubs and Scouts, football, cricket, cycling and a local history group.
 
A lot of families move into Crick because it is a family friendly village and the surrounding schools are a huge attraction. Crick primary school is a short, safe walk away and there are many secondary schools within a few miles.
 
Most children of secondary age in the village attend Guilsborough school; however, the two highly regarded, grammar schools, Lawrence Sheriff and Rugby High, are accessible through the eleven-plus examination, and there are further State-funded alternatives including Ashlawn in Hillmorton and the new secondary school at Houlton, to say nothing of the world famous, fee-paying Rugby School.
 
Crick is served by an excellent road network, being located within a couple of miles of Junction 18 on the M1 and only a few miles further from the M6 and the A14. Stations at Rugby and Long Buckby are both approximately seven miles away, they offer first-rate rail links to London and Birmingham.
