Description

The Old House presents a unique opportunity as a Grade II listed residence, rich in historical character and architectural significance. While it requires renovation, this property is poised for transformation into a remarkable family home or investment. The ground floor features an inviting entrance hall adorned with exposed timber beams, a bright drawing room with an impressive fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove, a separate library or study area, and a cozy sitting room complete with an inglenook fireplace. The kitchen is complemented by an adjacent breakfast room and includes utility space with access to the rear staircase. On the first floor, the layout is particularly appealing with two staircases that suggest potential for creating separate living spaces. The principal bedroom boasts an en suite bathroom accessible from the main staircase, alongside two additional double bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom. The secondary staircase leads to two more bedrooms and two bathrooms, enhancing flexibility for family living. Set in approximately 0.46 acres of beautifully maintained gardens edged with mature trees and hedging, the grounds offer various secluded spots ideal for leisure. The property includes outbuildings that require renovation but present significant development potential (subject to local planning consents). With off-road parking options and a double garage included, this property is conveniently located near essential amenities in Wilbarston village while providing serene views of surrounding countryside and school playing fields. Market Harborough is just a few miles away, offering excellent transport links to London St. Pancras in around 60 minutes by train. This property not only offers desirable rural comfort but also substantial renovation potential within a highly regarded community.
