Charming Four Bedroom Character Cottage in the Heart of Crick

Situated right in the heart of Crick, overlooking a local green, this well-presented four bedroom character home offers a unique blend of period charm and modern living. With just under 2,000 sq.ft of internal space, this deceptively spacious property boasts four double bedrooms, four reception rooms, and a beautifully landscaped south-west facing garden�complete with a garden cabin with power and lighting.

Dating back to the 18th century, this home was originally two cottages�one believed to have been a rope-making cottage for canal boats on the Grand Union Canal, the other possibly a bakery. The two properties were later combined and thoughtfully extended in the 1980s, creating a wonderful mix of character and contemporary comforts.

A Home Full of Character & Space

Step inside and be greeted by charming period features, including exposed beams, stonework, brick fireplaces, and latched doors. The spacious reception rooms provide flexible living options, including:

- A cosy sitting room/snug with a striking Inglenook fireplace, exposed beams, and a window seat overlooking the green.

- A large lounge with a feature brick fireplace, a wood-burning stove, and views over the rear garden.

- A bright and airy family room, flooded with natural light from the many windows, making it the perfect space for entertaining.

- A versatile study/home office with a fireplace and fitted storage (also over looking the green).

The kitchen is well-appointed with a range of units, integrated appliances, and a breakfast bar, complemented by a separate utility room.

The large yet welcoming hallway also sets the tone for this charming home, featuring exposed brickwork, wooden flooring, and solid latched doors leading to the main living areas and downstairs cloakroom/WC.

Upstairs � Four Double Bedrooms & Two Bathrooms

The first-floor landing is a characterful space in itself, with exposed brickwork, skylights, and a feature internal window. The four double bedrooms each have their own distinct charm, with exposed timbers, Velux windows, built-in storage, and views across the green or garden. The main bedroom benefits from a Jack & Jill bathroom (with one door onto the landing), complete with a freestanding bath, separate shower, and underfloor heating. There is also another modern shower room with a Velux window, adding to the light and airy feel of the home.

South-West Facing Garden with Potential for Parking

Outside, the beautifully landscaped rear garden enjoys sun throughout the day, featuring multiple seating areas, raised flower beds, and a large summerhouse with power and lighting. There is potential to create off-road parking at the rear, subject to the necessary permissions.

Whilst there is no driveway. There is plenty of parking available in the lane, right outside the front of the property.

A True Village Gem

Crick is a sought-after village with a vibrant community spirit.

It offers the perfect village lifestyle with its many walks right on your doorstep, including Crack's Hill, Millennium Wood and of course the beautiful Grand Union Canal.

You also have a local Co-op, Post Office and a choice of three pubs (The Wheatsheaf, Royal Oak, and The Red Lion - all within walking distance,) also there is the Ex-Servicemen's Club (Crick Club) which is a great place to have a drink.

Pickle and Pie, the local deli does a fantastic range of breakfasts and lunches to eat in or take away - perfect if you're working from home and want to nip somewhere for a coffee and a sandwich (their Scotch eggs are amazing too by the way!)

Crick also has many activity groups for the family including Cubs and Scouts, football, cricket, cycling and a local history group.

A lot of families move into Crick because it is a family friendly village and the surrounding schools are a huge attraction. Crick primary school is a short, safe walk away and there are many secondary schools within a few miles.

Most children of secondary age in the village attend Guilsborough school; however, the two highly regarded, grammar schools, Lawrence Sheriff and Rugby High, are accessible through the eleven-plus examination, and there are further State-funded alternatives including Ashlawn in Hillmorton and the new secondary school at Houlton, to say nothing of the world famous, fee-paying Rugby School.

Crick is served by an excellent road network, being located within a couple of miles of Junction 18 on the M1 and only a few miles further from the M6 and the A14. Stations at Rugby and Long Buckby are both approximately seven miles away, they offer first-rate rail links to London and Birmingham.
