A Sophisticated Countryside Sanctuary with Unrivalled Views and Bespoke Contemporary Elegance
Step into View House, Gretton – an exquisite, architecturally enhanced home that blends the serenity of the countryside with striking modern luxury. Tucked away in one of Northamptonshire’s most desirable villages, this elevated retreat offers uninterrupted, panoramic views over rolling green fields – a breath-taking daily backdrop to a truly refined lifestyle.
From the moment you arrive, this exceptional residence sets the tone. Elevated on a gentle rise, it commands presence and privacy, while immersing you in the sights and sounds of rural life – birdsong, sunsets, and soft morning mist rolling across the landscape.
At the heart of this home lies a showstopping bespoke kitchen, designed in 2021 for both culinary excellence and effortless entertaining. Here, every detail has been considered. Crafted with top-of-the-range Miele appliances, the kitchen features two ovens, a steam/microwave oven, a built-in Espresso coffee machine, cup warming drawer, slow cooker, plate warmer drawer, and even integrated digital scales. A Quooker boiling water tap offers instant convenience, whether for your morning tea or prepping gourmet meals.
The chef’s toolkit is further elevated with dual induction hobs, a gas double grill, gas wok burner, BBQ grill, and Teppanyaki plate – ideal for everything from intimate brunches to grand dinner parties.
A sleek Neff downdraft extractor rises seamlessly from the central island when needed, maintaining the clean lines of the space while keeping the atmosphere pristine. The island itself is a multifunctional hub – featuring integrated plug-in ports, luxurious granite worktops, pan drawers, built-in bins, and ambient under-cabinet lighting.
Storage is both stylish and practical, with corner larder cupboard featuring integrated lighting and a full-height Caple wine fridge and full height wine rack. A Bosch full-height fridge and freezer, Bosch dishwasher, and Elica extraction hood complete this state-of-the-art culinary space. When the day winds down, Alexa-controlled electric day & night blinds set the tone for relaxation.
Expansive bi-folding doors dissolve the boundary between inside and out, spilling the kitchen and dining space into the glorious landscape. It’s here that you’ll host, relax, or simply soak in the ever-changing countryside — your own private picture-perfect canvas.
The lounge centres around a multi-fuel burner set on a handcrafted York stone plinth, offering a rustic contrast to the clean lines and creating a cosy atmosphere during the colder months.
The Strachan-fitted study provides an elegant and functional home office, while the guest bedroom includes built-in wardrobes, offering both comfort and convenience. The master suite impresses with its walk-in wardrobe and smart eaves storage.
There are three bathrooms – two fully finished to a high standard, and a third offering an exciting opportunity to create a bespoke space of your own.
A staircase leads to a fully boarded loft room – not currently converted but offering excellent potential for storage or future development (subject to permissions).
Other luxurious touches include a gel fireplace, a six-person HotSpring hot tub, and a detached studio – ideal for creative work or hobbies. The studio is fully wired with electric, features wireless heating, a dedicated fuse board, and connects to the main house’s Wi-Fi.
Externally, the rear garden is beautifully enhanced with Philips Hue designer lighting – four lights to the rear and two to the side – all individually or collectively controlled via smart hub for a tailored evening ambiance.
Completing the picture is off-road parking and a garage, offering practical convenience to match the home’s effortless elegance.
