Welcome to Northamptonshire

With a heritage so rich that historians are still unsure as to when humans began occupying what would one day become Northamptonshire, it should be little surprise that the Rose of the Shires is a place of hidden depths. It boasts the kind of atmosphere and unique character that can only be forged through the merging of past influences.

Of course, there’s little left of the Palaeolithic era for your average Northamptonshire resident to enjoy, except perhaps some intellectual curiosities. However, the historical buildings that do remain from the last millennium are a living patchwork of English history. They not only provide the area with beauty and intrigue, but also an identity unlike anywhere else.

Those aren’t the only sights to soak up though, as the many parks, lakes and forests continue to inspire awe and wonder in whoever pays them a visit. The examples of natural beauty here are as timeless as the sky they fall under. Not to mention, they provide the perfect places to raise a family, or simply get in touch with nature.

It’s important to note that Northamptonshire isn’t only about green fields and centuries-old castles though. It offers economic opportunity, with the South Midlands in particular being notable for its vital place in the motorsports industry. Many household names still call the area their manufacturing home. Alongside this, there are plenty of great educational establishments, with a wealth of excellent schools, colleges and universities to choose from.

What is Shared Ownership?

Shared Ownership is a government scheme that allows buyers to purchase a share in a property, usually between 10% and 75%, while paying a reduced market rent to a housing association on the remainder. The scheme gives first time buyers and those that do not currently own a home the opportunity to purchase a share in a new-build or resales property.

Success Stories

“A year after I moved in, I staircased to 75% and then purchased the final share, and now I own my home 100% outright. I really do recommend Shared Ownership as a fantastic way to get into the housing market.”
