Poplars Farm Close, Hannington, Northampton

This stylish, individually designed detached stone barn conversion formed part of an exclusive development of just seven high-quality homes within the former yard of Poplars Farm in Hannington, completed in early 2011. Tucked away in a secure and secluded position beside the historic Parish Church, the property blends period character with exposed beams and oak carpentry, making it individual in contemporary design and offered with immaculate presentation throughout.
Extending to approximately 2,300 sq ft, the thoughtfully arranged accommodation offers superb flexibility for modern family living. It includes four bedrooms, featuring an impressive principal suite with dressing room, a spacious dining hall, two additional reception rooms, and a superb fitted kitchen/breakfast room, complemented by a utility room and cloakroom. Externally, the home has been transformed by the complete reimagining of both front and rear gardens, designed and delivered by a Chelsea Flower Show-winning designer to create an outstanding outdoor sanctuary. The result is a series of beautifully curated spaces for relaxation and entertaining, where structure, planting and outdoor living flow seamlessly together to exceptional effect. A sleek resin-bound driveway, approached via electric gates, provides a striking first impression and continues through to the double garage, reinforcing the clean, contemporary finish. Further benefits include south-facing gardens, a double garage, ample off-road parking, air conditioning and a range of environmentally conscious features, including solar-assisted hot water and underfloor heating. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive barn conversion of real quality, offering style, privacy, sustainability, and a truly exceptional indoor-outdoor living experience.

Outside -

Front Garden - The front garden and rear courtyard were designed and built by the award-winning Sheffield-based garden design and build studio Bestall & Co, known for their highly considered, contemporary outdoor spaces. The design concept for the rear courtyard was inspired by “what would an Apple-designed spa feel like,” while the front garden was created around a bespoke maze feature and a seamless flow of seating, cooking and dining areas. Both spaces were carefully composed to work together harmoniously, with outdoor furniture selected to complement the design. A key focus throughout is year-round greenery and exceptionally low maintenance planting, enhanced in the rear courtyard by a plumbed-in irrigation system.

Double Garage - 5.97m x 5.97m (19'07 x 19'07) - Continuing from the driveway, the resin-bound surface provides additional parking for two vehicles and includes a pedestrian door to the rear, offering direct access through to the rear garden. Hormann electric garage doors have recently been installed giving secure access from the front.

Rear Garden - A manicured and sheltered pathway leads to a raised decked area, which can also be accessed directly from the dining hall. This attractive outdoor space provides an ideal setting for a hot tub, complemented by feature boundary walls and mature shrub planting.
