MOST HANDSOME SPACIOUS PERIOD PROPERTY IN A PLEASANT VILLAGE LOCATION WITH THE ADDED BENEFIT OF A DETACHED SELF-CONTAINED ANNEXE AND GARAGING
Kislingbury House is an exceptionally handsome stone-built period home, believed to date back to the early 1800s. Formerly a farmhouse, the property has been beautifully restored and modernised while retaining a wealth of original character. The accommodation is extensive and well-balanced, with the added benefit of a detached, self-contained annexe to the rear — ideal for guests, multigenerational living or a home office.
Constructed in mellow Northamptonshire ironstone under a slate roof, the house features classic architectural detailing including mullioned bay windows and traditional sash windows, all in keeping with its heritage. A wrought iron covered porch opens to a welcoming entrance hall via a stained glass front door, revealing a graceful central hallway with an elegant butterfly staircase rising to the first floor. The main reception rooms are generously proportioned and full of period charm. The sitting room to the front of the house enjoys a tall bay sash window, corniced ceilings, and an impressive Minster style fireplace with open hearth. The formal dining room also features a sash bay window with high corniced ceilings creating a wonderful sense of space. A cosy snug with wood burning stove provides a more informal living space, perfect for family use.
At the rear of the property is a superb kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units, central island, quality appliances and ample workspace. Adjacent is a breakfast room with views over the rear garden and another wood burning stove set within a feature fireplace. This part of the house also includes a practical utility room, boiler room, cloakroom, and a rear porch leading out to the garden. Upstairs, the spacious landing leads to six bedrooms. The principal suite includes a double bedroom, a smaller adjoining room (ideal as a study or nursery), a generous dressing room with built-in wardrobes, and a stylishly refitted en suite bathroom. A further guest bedroom features an en suite shower room, while four additional bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.
Outside, the gardens are mature and well maintained, offering privacy and space. The detached annexe at the rear of the property provides a flexible and highly valuable addition to the home.
OUTSIDE
Kislingbury House is set well back from the road behind a mature privet hedge, with a charming front garden laid mainly to lawn and complemented by established flower and shrub borders. The garden is enclosed by attractive brick walling and features a characterful Victorian greenhouse.
To the side of the property, a driveway provides off road parking for several vehicles and leads to an electric timber gate, which opens into a private rear courtyard offering further parking. The property also benefits from a range of useful outbuildings, including a garage with adjoining workshop, a garden shed, and various outdoor seating and entertaining areas — all enjoying a high degree of privacy.
