Situated in one of Charnwood's most esteemed villages, this charming period property presents an exceptional opportunity for those looking to invest in a family home with substantial renovation potential. Having been lovingly maintained by the same family for many years, it is now poised to enter a new chapter. Spanning approximately 0.25 acres, the property boasts a mature garden that backs onto open farmland, offering picturesque views of Swithland Woods.
This residence combines character and location, providing easy access to scenic walks and village amenities such as the well-regarded Griffin Inn and St Leonard's Church of England Primary School. The elegant entrance hall features high ceilings and parquet flooring, leading to a spacious lounge with a brick fireplace and large bow window that floods the space with light.
A second reception area can serve multiple purposes—whether as a dining room, family space, or a home office—enhanced by oak flooring and generous windows. The kitchen awaits modernization but holds great promise, with lovely garden views and existing storage options. An original gas Aga is present but currently out of use.
Upstairs features three sizeable double bedrooms, accompanied by a family bathroom. One bedroom provides access to an attic room, presenting exciting possibilities for expansion or creative redesign.
The external spaces are equally appealing; off-road parking is available via a gated driveway leading to a single garage. Potential modifications could enhance parking capacity or reposition the garage for greater utility—there's even historic planning permission for a tandem garage with rooms above.
The expansive rear garden includes a slate terrace and lush lawn framed by established greenery and granite walling. With uninterrupted views over farmland toward Swithland Woods, outdoor living here is truly serene. This property allows for sympathetic renovations while preserving its historical charm or offers vast scope for expanding into a modern family haven in one of Leicestershire’s most coveted locations.
