Main Street, Little Brington, NN7 4HS

This delightful Grade II listed former Althorp Estate cottage offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a truly charming home in the highly sought-after and unspoilt village of Little Brington. Nestled amidst rolling Northamptonshire countryside and positioned away from busy roads, the property enjoys a rare combination of tranquillity, character, and convenience.

Constructed of attractive local Northamptonshire stone under a traditional thatched roof, the cottage is set along a private no-through gravelled drive, which enhances both its privacy and sense of seclusion. The property exudes character and retains many period features, while offering practical and comfortable accommodation suited to modern living.

On the ground floor, the welcoming entrance hall leads to a well-appointed fitted kitchen, thoughtfully designed with a range of units. French doors open directly onto the patio, creating an excellent connection between the house and garden-perfect for outdoor entertaining during warmer months. The sitting room, with its exposed beams and charming multi-fuel stove, offers a cosy retreat, making it an inviting space to relax in all year round.

The first floor is approached via a landing that serves two well-proportioned double bedrooms, each benefitting from attractive outlooks across the surrounding gardens and countryside. A family bathroom completes the accommodation on this level.

Externally, the cottage continues to impress. The private garden is both delightful and manageable, featuring established planting, lawned areas, and a sunny patio-an ideal setting for al fresco dining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. In addition, there is a generously sized garage providing excellent storage or workshop space, together with off-road parking for multiple vehicles.

Little Brington is a highly desirable village, known for its unspoilt character, picturesque setting, and strong sense of community. The area is surrounded by beautiful open countryside, offering numerous walking and cycling routes, while still being conveniently placed for access to Northampton, Daventry, and the motorway network.
