3 bedroom detached house for sale

* THE FIRST * Alpha Cottage in Charwelton comes to the market for sale. Named as such as likely to be one of the primary residences in the location back in the 1840s when it was first built. Originally owning a large amount of land across Chapel Lane, this marvellous detached home still retains a good-sized portion of land with its expansive garden. Currently offering three bedrooms but with approved planning consent for a two-storey extension to the rear which would turn what is already a great home into a big one! Located in the ever-popular village of Charwelton, just to the south of Daventry, enroute to Banbury. The A361 offers fantastic access to not only the local towns but further afield and the motorway networks. With its stone walls, wood burners and fireplaces, rustic charm, and stunning setting, this home must be viewed to appreciate what is on offer. EPC E. C/Tax Band E.
