Situation
Helmdon lies to the north of Brackley and is a ribbon village, divided by the infant River Tove. Helmdon was the Northamptonshire Best Village Competition 2014 winner. Amenities in the village include a public house, a primary school and Community Reading Room where activities and meetings are held regularly. More comprehensive facilities can be found in nearby Brackley (which has a Waitrose) and Banbury where there is the Castle Quay shopping centre.

The A43 dual carriageway gives access to the M40 and M1 motorways. Commuting by rail is from Banbury or Bicester stations (London Marylebone).

Outside
The property occupies a central position within the village, within its own gardens, raised on one side from road level. There is off road parking for two vehicles which could extend to more if required and a delightful planted patio to the fore of the living room. On the other side a larger and enclosed garden extends with lawn, trees, shrubs and plants, a productive vegetable garden and an old corrugated stable harking back to an earlier age and ideal as a garden feature/store.
