4 Bed Semi-Detached House, Single Let, Northampton, NN7 4QU £499,950

Set between the canal and railway line is the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul. A church that was largely rebuilt in the early 19th century, but which still retains its fine and embattled tower from the 12th century.

Weedon is also located close to the M1 motorway, making easy access for commuters to reach London or other major cities. There are also excellent transport links with nearby towns such as Daventry, Towcester, Northampton, and Rugby.

A prominent feature of the village is the former Royal Ordnance Depot, originally developed as a secure military facility in the Napoleonic era and reputedly intended as a safe inland retreat for George III and his family. Today, the Depot has been sensitively adapted to house artisan workshops, antique stores, bookshops, creative studios, offices, and a microbrewery that hosts regular food and craft events.

With green spaces, waterways, and good local amenities including a primary school, doctors surgery, shops, pubs, and restaurants; for those looking for a village location with superb facilities, Weedon is the perfect location.
