Description

This historic 18th-century cottage, set in a sought-after village in North Leicestershire, offers a unique opportunity for those interested in renovation and investment. The property has undergone recent re-thatching and comes to market with no upward chain. With approximately 195 square meters of living space over two levels, it was originally two separate cottages that were lovingly combined by the current owners nearly 60 years ago. As a Grade II listed building, it carries historical significance, and there is potential for thoughtful renovations that retain its charm while updating the amenities to modern standards. The inclusion of gas central heating and some double glazing offers a solid foundation for further improvements. However, interested buyers should be mindful that any alterations will require listed building consent from local authorities. The separate outbuilding, dating back to around 1430, holds its own historical value and could serve as a workshop or office space, with possibilities for conversion into additional living accommodation subject to appropriate permissions. The main residence features multiple reception rooms, including a lounge with dual aspect windows, a dining room, and a family room that opens to the garden. Upstairs comprises four bedrooms and two bathrooms, providing ample space for family living or guest accommodation. The well-maintained gardens surrounding the property provide privacy and include parking for several vehicles along with an extensive gravelled area leading to double garages. Located within Queniborough village, residents can enjoy local amenities including schools, shops, pubs, and excellent transport links that make commuting convenient. This property presents an exciting canvas for renovation enthusiasts looking to preserve its historic essence while enhancing its functionality for modern life.
