About this property

Set at Heathencote, a small hamlet on the eastern edge of Towcester, this Grade II listed Georgian townhouse occupies a prominent and private position. Built around 1810 in honey-coloured Northamptonshire limestone and extending to approximately 188 square metres over three storeys, the property combines its considerable period elegance — twelve-pane sash windows, restored panelling, original cantilevered staircase — with a deeply sympathetic recent renovation by the current owners. A stone-arched fanlit front door opens onto a wide entrance hall with restored stone flagstones running through to the rear of the house, where a glazed door looks out over a small walled garden. To the front, a formal drawing room sits in deep claret and walnut tones — restored fluted panelling, original Georgian black-slate hob grate in a marble surround, and tall twelve-pane sashes giving onto the street. To the rear, a beautifully reworked kitchen-dining room is fitted in Plain English bespoke cabinetry painted in deep navy with quartz worktops, a freestanding gas-and-electric range cooker and a generous island. The first floor accommodates the principal bedroom suite, a second double, and a marble-clad family bathroom. Two further bedrooms and a contemporary shower room occupy the top floor under the original roof timbers. Outside, a small walled rear garden is paved in reclaimed limestone, with a mature wisteria trained along the back wall and a single mulberry tree in one corner. Permit parking immediately adjacent. Freehold, council tax G, EPC F — limited by the listed status.
