Description:

Mullions is an attractive Grade II Listed 17th-century period property of banded coursed ironstone and limestone construction beneath pitched and slated roofs. The property has been sympathetically extended to provide spacious accommodation and retains a wealth of character features, including chamfered stone mullion windows with moulded hoods, raised stone parapets with kneelers, and inglenook fireplaces.

Originally, the property comprised two separate dwelling houses, with the second dwelling being extended in the Victorian era. More recently, the current vendors have constructed a two-storey redbrick extension under a slate roof in close collaboration with local conservation officers. Accommodation on the ground floor includes three reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, study, utility, shower room, and workshop. The first floor offers five bedrooms, with an en-suite to the master bedroom, and a family bathroom.

This family cottage benefits from splendid countryside views, landscaped gardens, off-road parking, and a delightful, insulated summerhouse with power and lighting. The property also features a gravelled rear yard area accessed via double swing vehicular gates, providing further off-road parking and accommodating a large secure storage unit.

With its blend of historical charm and spacious accommodation, Mullions offers a unique opportunity to acquire a distinguished family home in a picturesque rural setting.

Location:

Mullions is located on the southern outskirts of Weedon village within walking distance of local amenities and with countryside views.

Weedon is home to the Royal Ordnance Survey Depot. The site was allegedly chosen because of Weedon’s central location in the heart of England and being the furthest point from the sea it would form a safe retreat for George III and his family in the event of a Napoleonic French invasion. The majority of the Depot still stands today and now forms a unique space offering a selection of artisan workshops, offices, studios, antique stores, book shops, and even has a brewery that holds events with local food vendors every weekend.

Originally known as Weedon-Bec this historic village lies close to the Roman Watling Street where it crosses the river Nene. The Grand Union canal also passes through the village providing tranquil waterside walks.

Nestled between the canal and railway line is the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul. A church that was largely rebuilt in the early 19th century, but which still retains its fine and embattled tower from the 12th century.

Weedon is also located close to the M1 motorway, making easy access for commuters to reach London or other major cities. There are also excellent transport links with nearby towns such as Daventry, Towcester, Northampton, and Rugby.

With green spaces, waterways, and good local amenities including a primary school, doctors surgery, shops, pubs, and restaurants; for those looking for a village location with superb facilities, Weedon is the perfect location.
