Charming Grade II Listed Three Bedroom Home in the Heart of Helmdon
Welcome to The Pump House, a delightful three-bedroom terraced home on Church Street in the sought-after Northamptonshire village of Helmdon. Built during the Georgian era (1710–1830), this unique property showcases an abundance of original features carefully complemented by thoughtful additions, creating a character-filled yet practical family home.
Inside, the main reception room sets the tone with its inviting inglenook fireplace, exposed stone walls and original beams, offering a warm and welcoming space to relax. The separate dining room continues the period charm with an original bread oven door — a talking point and a nod to the property’s heritage.
The bespoke kitchen has been beautifully crafted with handmade units to maximise storage, featuring wooden worktops and a classic Belfast sink. It is fully equipped with integrated appliances including a Rangemaster oven with five hobs and overhead extractor, fridge freezer, dishwasher and washer dryer, ensuring a perfect blend of country style and modern convenience.
Upstairs, the home offers three good-sized bedrooms, two of which are comfortable doubles, providing versatile accommodation for family living or home working. The en suite bathroom is designed to impress with a freestanding roll top bath, stylish panelled walls, skylight and elegant gold finishings. The family bathroom, with a bath and shower over, fresh tiling and its own skylight, adds further practicality for a busy household.
Outside, the enclosed front garden is a tranquil haven, laid to lawn with a patio seating area, providing a private spot to relax or entertain. The property retains further historic interest with a charming water pump and well, adding unique character to the setting. The property also benefits from a separate double garage and off-road parking for two cars — a rare asset for a period village home.
Helmdon is a vibrant, award-winning village community with a welcoming atmosphere and a wealth of amenities including a popular public house, primary school, church and village hall which hosts a post office twice a week. The village has proudly won Northamptonshire Village of the Year multiple times and is well-regarded for its active social clubs and events. For a wider range of shops and services, Brackley and Banbury are just a short drive away. Excellent road links via the A43 connect to the M40 and M1 motorways, while regular train services to London Marylebone and Birmingham are available from Banbury or Bicester stations.
Offering a rare opportunity to own a piece of Georgian history in a sought-after village, The Pump House must be viewed to fully appreciate its unique character and wonderful setting.
