Waverley House is a beautifully restored period townhouse, occupying a prime position in a desirable and well regarded area, with wonderful views across Northampton’s historic Racecourse. Finished to an exceptional standard throughout, the property has been thoughtfully extended by the current owners to create a spacious and stylish kitchen/breakfast room, ideally suited to family life. Arranged over four floors, including a superbly converted cellar, this elegant home offers a seamless blend of traditional character and modern convenience. The lower ground level has been professionally refurbished to provide a versatile family room/cinema, alongside a bespoke wine cellar featuring high quality carpentry. Period details are in abundance, with tall corniced ceilings, original fireplaces, restored sash windows and a wealth of charming features throughout. Located within a conservation area, the house retains a handsome frontage with classic architectural detailing.

Upon entering via the porch, one is welcomed by a delightful hallway with a Minton tiled floor, exposed brickwork and a glazed panel offering a glimpse into the cellar below. Stairs rise to the upper floors, adding to the home’s sense of grandeur. At the front of the property is a generous sitting room with a striking full height bay window offering views over the park. A central period fireplace with open hearth and tiled surround provides a focal point, flanked by bespoke cabinetry with shelving and cupboards. To the rear, the dining room enjoys views over the garden through a tall sash window and features an additional fireplace, timber floors, and decorative cornicing.
