Three Bedroom Detached Property For Sale in Crick, Northamptonshire

If you’ve been looking for a modern home that still feels a little bit different – this is one to see.

Tucked away in a peaceful, well-presented cul-de-sac of just a handful of homes, this beautifully kept detached property is around eight years old and sits right in the heart of Crick village. It's not on an estate – so you get the benefit of a central village location with a real sense of privacy.

Although it has the look of a bungalow from the outside, it actually offers two floors of well-planned living space, giving you flexibility whether you’re upsizing, downsizing or just looking for something a little special. The property is approximately 96sqm / just over 1000 sqft.

The front door opens into a spacious hallway that immediately sets the tone – it’s wide, welcoming, and flows naturally to the rest of the home.

The kitchen is bright and stylish, with soft shaker units, quartz-style worktops, and all the integrated appliances you’d expect – fridge freezer, hob, oven and dishwasher. There’s even room for a breakfast table if you fancy a more casual set-up.

Across the hallway is a separate dining room, ideal for entertaining or working from home.

The lounge at the rear is a lovely space. It has French doors that open straight out onto the garden, and a charming log burner that makes the room feel really cosy in the colder months.

The ground floor also includes a generously-sized double bedroom, plus a modern downstairs shower room finished in soft neutrals.

Upstairs you’ll find two more lovely bedrooms, both full of light and character thanks to their angled ceilings and Velux windows. The main bedroom is particularly spacious – it feels tucked away and peaceful, with views of the fields from the Velux windows. There’s also a family bathroom up here with a modern suite and attractive tiling.

Outside, the garden is private and easy to maintain – mostly laid to lawn, with a path leading round to the gated side access. There’s also allocated parking for one car at the front of the property.

Another big plus with this home is the energy performance – it has an EPC rating of B, which means it’s well insulated, energy-efficient and cost-effective to run. A brilliant bonus if you’re trying to keep bills down.

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.

Crick is home to Aspire Wellness Community – a friendly local fitness hub offering a variety of group classes. From strength training and cardio to core conditioning, ladies only sessions, retro aerobics, indoor cycle, yoga, Pilates, and social sessions for all ages and abilities.

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.
