Description

An exceptional Grade II listed Georgian farmhouse of considerable character and distinction, occupying a privileged position on the Holdenby Estate with outstanding views. This beautifully restored eighteenth-century country residence offers elegant and substantial family accommodation within one of Northamptonshire's most desirable estate settings. Positioned at the edge of the historic village of Holdenby, the property enjoys complete tranquillity, exceptional privacy and far-reaching views over the surrounding parkland and countryside. The farmhouse has benefited from an extensive programme of refurbishment and enhancement, carried out in recent years with great care and attention to detail. The works successfully combined the preservation of the property's inherent Georgian character with the practicalities and comforts required for modern family living. Improvements include timber-framed double-glazed windows, high-quality bathroom suites, a bespoke handmade oak kitchen and comprehensive redecoration, all of which continue to ensure the farmhouse is presented to an exceptionally high standard throughout. The accommodation extends across three floors and offers wonderfully proportioned living space, characterised by excellent natural light, period charm and attractive views over the surrounding estate. A welcoming entrance hall provides access to the principal reception rooms, including an elegant drawing room, formal dining room and generous family room. These well-balanced spaces enjoy delightful outlooks across the gardens and wider Holdenby Estate, creating an ideal environment for both formal entertaining and relaxed family living. At the heart of the house lies an impressive bespoke kitchen. The kitchen is comprehensively equipped with an oil-fired AGA, double electric oven, induction hob, extractor unit and integrated SMEG dishwasher, creating a refined yet practical space befitting a property of this calibre. The first floor provides four generous double bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite with dressing room and en-suite bathroom. A bespoke laundry chute serves the upper floors, adding a thoughtful practical feature. Two further double bedrooms are situated on the second floor, together with an additional en-suite bathroom, offering excellent flexibility for family members, and or guests. Outside, Grange Farmhouse is approached via a sweeping gravelled driveway which provides extensive parking and turning space. The landscaped gardens are a particular feature of the property, extending beautifully around the house and enjoying a wonderful backdrop of open countryside. Mature specimen trees established flower borders and traditional mixed hedging create a quintessentially English garden setting, whilst expansive lawns provide ample space for family enjoyment. To the rear, an attractive terrace offers the perfect position for outdoor dining and entertaining, overlooking the property's private heated swimming pool and taking full advantage of the magnificent rural views. A fully serviced annex provides, with own entrance, highly versatile ancillary accommodation and would lend itself equally well to use as a home office, studio, guest suite, or recreational space. In addition, a collection of traditional outbuildings, garages and stables offer considerable practical storage and may appeal to those with equestrian interests or requiring workshop and estate storage facilities. Grange Farmhouse represents a rare opportunity to occupy a significant estate property within the renowned Holdenby Estate. Combining timeless architectural character, exemplary presentation and an exceptional rural setting, the property offers an outstanding country lifestyle within easy reach of Northampton, Market Harborough and major communication links.
