VENDORS COMMENTS
With its contemporary finish 5 Manor Gardens is a family home that offers a light, airy and luxurious feel. A 1990's home with a huge amount of character and style, it is beautifully modern and spacious, surrounded by fields and woodland that promises dramatic scenery throughout the year as well as a peaceful and secluded idyll. As soon as we saw the house we could see it had tremendous potential for our growing family, explains Chris. It was, in essence, a blank canvas but you could see straightaway that the property had 'good bones' and we've capitalised on that in our remodelling. What we've been able to achieve is to enlarge the house and design an interior that is modern but still in sympathy with the fabric of the building. As the ground floor rooms open onto the rear garden they have the benefit of lots of natural light as well as being secluded and private. The final result is a residence that is both warm and inviting, a home to lay down roots in a friendly locale.

It's been the perfect place for our family, continues Deborah, the house has really looked after us and you instantly feel at home the moment you step across the threshold. Watching our children, and now our grandchildren, grow in this environment has been a great gift - they love the house and the garden and have been able to make full use of all the space we have here. We're right at the centre of things with a wide range of schools and shops, as well as access to leisure and cultural pursuits, just a short distance away. Rugby, Northampton and Milton Keynes are only a short drive from here and we're close enough to several motorways without feeling the effects of busy commuter traffic. We're also very fortunate regarding rail links as our nearest station is only 2 miles away. The house ticked all the right boxes for us, adds Chris, location, amenities and, of course, a wonderful home for our family. We have some amazing memories to take away with us, not least the marquee parties we've hosted in the garden - always marvellous occasions and still a topic of conversation amongst our family and friends.
