St Pauls House, Twywell NN14

"Rural England"

This isn’t any house, this is St Paul’s. A magnificent residence designed and built with love from the reclaimed golden stone of St Paul’s church in Northampton.  Discreetly positioned beside St Nicholas, Twywell village church, it benefits not only an inspiring view, but the assurance of a quiet neighbour.  The hub of a community whose residents raise funds from fete, flower, dog show or dance, to keep it thriving.  Twywell Hills and Dales.  A three mile circuit of woodland paths owned and preserved by the Wildlife trust and Rockingham Forest, provide sanctuary for dog walkers, runners or those simply seeking some me time.  Schools in the historic market town of Oundle (10Miles), Kimbolton (15Miles) and beautiful Stamford (26Miles) are near by, along with their independent counterparts.  Mainline railway stations make London an easy commute or theatre hop at less than an hour away. This central rural location affords you the best of both worlds.  Not just a pretty face, the interior offers a fusion of period and contemporary living. Equally suited to a family or couple, it’s a home you’ll never want to leave.   As day fades to evening, make yourself comfortable with a glass of something chilled in the Breeze House. A cosy garden room you can entertain up to ten in. Shaded by canvas sides by day, lit and heated for the evening. Admire your beautiful new home from this vantage as you congratulate yourself on what a great purchase you made. (The property is being marketed by joint sole agents).
