As you wander through this historic home, you'll be enchanted by the original period features that have been meticulously preserved, including the magnificent oak front door, the stunning oak staircase and the beautiful oak flooring throughout the ground floor.

On the first floor, there are three generously sized double bedrooms. The primary bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room, whilst bedroom 2 and 3 are serviced by a beautiful family bathroom with roll top bath and separate shower. There is also a small storage room on this floor.

On the second floor, there is a fantastic bedroom full of character and charm. This would also make a perfect primary bedroom as there's built-in wardrobes and a lovely en-suite shower room with wonderful views.

Situated on a generous 0.37 acre plot, The Dower House provides a sense of privacy and tranquility. The enclosed wrap-around gardens are a haven for nature lovers, offering manicured lawns, mature trees and vibrant flora.

Car enthusiasts will rejoice at the astonishing garaging space, encompassing over 1200 sq. ft. With a triple garage, a double garage, a carport and a bike shed, you'll never worry about finding ample room for your prized vehicles or additional storage needs. What's more, the corner garage (triple garage) presents the exciting opportunity for an annexe conversion. Although the planning permission for this potential one-bedroom annexe has lapsed, it could easily be re-applied for.

Adding to its allure, this magnificent property is located within the grounds of Pitsford Hall, epitomizing a lifestyle steeped in history and surrounded by breathtaking scenery. The Dower House is a semi-detached property and is connected to Pitsford Hall, where the administration centre for Pitsford school is based.

The property was designed by John Johnson (c 1775) for Colonel James Money and was originally described as 'a handsome house'. It is constructed of limestone decorated with grey Kingsthorpe sandstone as described and featured in Northamptonshire Stone by Dr. D.S. Sutherland. The Prince of Wales (later King Edward VIII then the Duke of Windsor) and the Duke of York (later King George VI) were regular visitors, coming to Pitsford to hunt with the Pytchley Hunt. The Dower House was later used as a billiards room to Pitsford Hall.
