NEWNHAM, Northamptonshire

A well-established three-bedroom home enjoying beautiful open countryside views.  Situated in an attractive position backing directly onto the village playing field and enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding open countryside, this property is a well-established three-bedroom terraced home offering comfortable and versatile accommodation, a generous rear garden and off-road parking to the front.   

The property has been lovingly occupied by its current owners for many years and provides an excellent opportunity for a new purchaser to update and personalise the accommodation to their own taste and requirements. A particularly appealing feature is the rear extension, which provides additional flexibility in the form of a conservatory and separate utility room, while the generous rear garden has been thoughtfully arranged to make the most of its elevated position and wonderful outlook.  The garden slopes gently away from the property, creating a number of different areas and, importantly, allowing the elevated patio to take full advantage of the stunning views across the playing field and open countryside beyond.

OUTSIDE

Front
The property is approached over a block-paved front garden, which provides useful off-road parking.  A side entrance provides access to the front, which a neighbour has a right of way over.

Rear Garden
The generous rear garden is undoubtedly one of the property's most appealing features.

Immediately to the rear of the house is a raised patio area providing an ideal space for outdoor seating and entertaining. The garden is set on an incline, and this elevated position is a real advantage, allowing those using the patio to sit back and enjoy the beautiful views across the village playing field and the open countryside beyond.

Beyond the patio is a lawned area with a pathway leading further down the garden. A brick-built outbuilding provides useful additional storage, while a side access gate leads through to the shared entrance to the front.

Continuing beyond the lawn is a gravelled area, attractively planted with shrubs and providing an ideal space for pots and further planting. A good-sized garden shed offers additional storage, while the pathway continues alongside the gravelled area towards the bottom of the garden.

The lower section has been thoughtfully arranged as a productive vegetable garden, with raised beds, a greenhouse and a further garden shed, offering plenty of scope for keen gardeners or those wishing to grow their own fruit, vegetables and flowers.

The garden is fully enclosed by established hedge and fence borders and backs directly onto the village playing field, creating an open aspect and providing those wonderful views over the surrounding countryside.
