A substantial grade 11 listed building dating from the mid-18th and 19th centuries, built in warm Northamptonshire limestone with some local ironstone banding under a slate and pantile roof. The detached property stands in extremely private, fully enclosed grounds within the conservation area in the heart of the village.

Acquired by the present owners some ten years ago, the property has been considerably and sympathetically updated by them and extended to include an
independent annexe and garaging. There is current consent for a further double garage. An impressive family home, the property would also lend itself, subject to consent, to commercial opportunities such as b & b, restaurant etc.

Isham is a picturesque, thriving village in the council district of Wellingborough, with a population at
the 2011 census of 772 people. Its name derives from the River Ise (a tributary of the Nene) which runs
in the valley to the east of the village. The small town of Burton Latimer is situated on the far side of the
valley providing an eclectic mix of local amenities. Kettering is less than three miles north of the village
providing multiple shopping and main line train station (London St. Pancras International one hour) and
Wellingborough is four miles south with similar amenities. The recently opened Lakeside Shopping
Centre is just five miles south. A14 access (junction 9) is less than one mile north of the village.
The historic heart of Isham is a conservation area containing several historic buildings including St Peters
Church. The village school caters for pupils to the age of 11 years with secondary schooling at Barton
Seagrave and Kettering. The Lilac PH has recently been acquired by the community. Plans to bypass the
village were put on hold due to the well-publicised financial problems of the county council but it is to be
hoped that funding will become available in the future.
Location Isham stands on the A509 and approaching the village from the south or north, the property
will be found fronting this road in the heart of the village standing gable end onto the road behind stone
walling with double electric gates providing access to the courtyard.
