Full Description

West View is a completely unique, early Victorian Villa style family home. There are no other houses similar in the village or quite probably in the county.

This imposing character double fronted five bedroom detached house is set over four floors and retains many original period features including high ceilings, cornices, large marble fireplaces and exposed timber flooring. Of particular note is the full height ceiling, multi-room, lower ground floor with additional access to the large garden, gravelled driveway, detached garage and outbuildings.
Additionally, the off road parking area provides space for a further 4-5 cars.

Pedestrian access is via the original wrought iron pedestrian gates and gravelled path with lawn, mature shrubs and trees on each side. The brick and slate porch shelters the original main entrance door with stained glass fanlight.

The ground floor comprises three reception rooms including the newly refurbished conservatory which has original terracotta quarry tiles and door and steps down into the garden. The dual aspect sitting room has two original timber sash bay windows and a large marble working fireplace with original servant bell pull handles on either side. Across the hallway is the dining room with large marble open fireplace and dual aspect windows.

Along the hallway is the door to the lower ground floor, a sizeable vestibule with ample storage cupboards and door into the newly fitted kitchen/breakfast room. This too is a double aspect room with high gloss wall and base units, sink, and several integrated appliances and mains gas fired boiler. The AEG appliances include an induction hob with extractor, fridge, dishwasher, two ovens, microwave and two freezers. The side door leads to the garden via the sloping path or steps.

Via the staircase from the hallway, the lower ground floor retains many original 19th century features. The main rooms have recently been used as a gym, games rooms, office and home business/household storage. In total, there are seven usable rooms including a utility room, WC and small workshop. There is further potential to use this floor as additional living space particularly as it also has separate access into the rear parking area and garden.

The staircase from the main entrance hall leads to the first floor WC, bathroom, shower room, master bedroom and two further large bedrooms. The master bedroom has a large fossil marble open fireplace, bay window to front and sash window overlooking the rear garden. Bedroom two has an open fireplace and three windows overlooking the gardens on both sides and the rear. Bedroom three has a large bay sash window and open fireplace.

The family bathroom has an original Victorian bath, airing cupboard with immersion heater hot water cylinder and beautiful original stained glass door.

On the second floor landing there is a small window to rear, loft hatch and large hallway storage room plus two further large bedrooms each with sash windows overlooking the front of the house.

Broughton is a rural village surrounded by open countryside and within easy reach of the A14, A43, M1, M6 and M11. Kettering mainline station is less than 3 miles away with London St. Pancras International station only approximately 50 minutes away.

Village amenities include primary school, pub/restaurant, social club, post office, co-op, convenience stores, takeaways, hairdressers, church, chapel, village hall, playing fields and mot test/repair centre.
