Victorian Gothic - NN14

This locaton is a beautifully restored Victorian Gothic rectory, built in 1855 and set within multiple acres of landscaped gardens. Surrounded by open countryside and uninterrupted views, the house enjoys a stunning backdrop of a 15th-century church with a pinnacled tower, visible from both the house and gardens. Located in an unspoilt Northamptonshire village, it offers a rare combination of period charm and modern comfort - just 50 minutes from London via the East Coast Main Line.

The main house features seven bedrooms and four bathrooms across both the principal residence and a connected annexe. Interiors include a wide tiled entrance hall, high ceilings, tall sash windows, and a series of gracious reception rooms with original fireplaces, decorative cornicing, and heritage detailing throughout. A neutral, high-spec kitchen with AGA opens into a conservatory overlooking the gardens, while additional highlights include a ground-floor bedroom and multiple period features such as a bread oven and working servants’ bells.

Outdoors, the property offers formal lawns, mature trees, a kitchen garden, and picturesque water features. A heated swimming pool with a timber pool house, a regulation hard tennis court, and an outdoor summer kitchen add to its appeal. The traditional coach house includes a large professional gym and flexible space ideal for green rooms, production offices, or equipment storage.

Accessed via a sweeping, tree-lined driveway, the estate includes secure gated parking for over 30 vehicles. The location is entirely film-friendly, with strong mobile signal, WiFi throughout, and no off-limits areas. Multiple zones can be used simultaneously, and the level lawns are suitable for marquees, base camps, or large-scale outdoor shoots.

This location is managed by an experienced agency and supported by a warm, flexible owner on-site. With easy access to the A14, M1, M6, and direct trains to London, it’s an exceptional location for film and TV (including period drama), editorial, fashion and bridal, product shoots, and large-scale commercial campaigns.
