Description
Mallard forms part of an exclusive residential development of five properties occupying a semi-rural position on the former site of the historic Castle Ashby and Earls Barton railway station. The property enjoys wonderful views to the front over River Meadows and to the rear over its own south facing rear garden and beyond with the parish church of Whiston sitting on the hill in the far distance.
Stepping over the threshold, one gets an immediate impression of a warm, light and bright home finished to an extremely high standard. Bought from the developers in 2018, the current owners have been extremely good custodians and have upgraded the property along with sympathetically extending it to the rear to create the most stunning kitchen/dining/family room that is ideally suited to modern 21st century living.
Engineered oak flooring runs throughout the majority of the ground floor space with zoned underfloor heating and the cosy sitting room lies to the front with a delightful rural aspect and electric blinds providing privacy. Integrated appliances within the kitchen include Zanussi electric oven with Hotpoint four ring halogen hob, Zanussi dishwasher and wine fridge.
In the corner of the kitchen, a door reveals the compact utility room which doubles up as a cloakroom with fitted units having plumbing for washing machine and dryer. Within the reception hall is a useful understairs cupboard and separate connecting door to the integral garage with electric up and over door and including a dog shower.
On the first floor, there are four double bedrooms which include a principal bedroom with contemporary en suite of wet room design with the remaining three bedrooms served by well-appointed, tiled family bathroom. One of the bedrooms has been currently re-purposed as a home office which enjoys wonderful southerly view over rolling open countryside. A retractable ladder from the loft hatch reveals a boarded loft offering additional storage and a door from the family bathroom open to reveal a very useful walk-in store room which doubles up as a drying room and houses the pressurised hot water cylinder in the corner.
OUTSIDE
To the front of the property lies a block paved driveway providing off road parking with separate gravelled parking area as well. The main garden lies to the rear enjoying a southerly aspect with split-level paved seating and dining areas along with a raised decked entertaining area positioned to catch the afternoon/evening sun.
LOCATION
Mallard sits within this exclusive residential development within the parish of Whiston, a popular rural village surrounded and associated with Castle Ashby, the ancestral home of Lord Northampton. Close by is the village of Earls Barton providing good local facilities along with the shopping yard at Castle Ashby with its delicatessen, café and artisan shops. More extensive shopping and leisure facilities are available in the county town of Northampton and Wellingborough along with Rushden Lakes Shopping Village. The surrounding countryside provides a haven for walking, cycling and riding enthusiasts and the A45 dual carriageway provides easy access to both M1 and A14 (Al/M1 link road)
