Description
Set back from the road in a tucked-away part of Great Glen, this individual four-bedroom detached home has an outlook towards the surrounding countryside and a double garage. The accommodation includes a large lounge with exposed ceiling beams and a brick fireplace, a separate dining room, and a kitchen with an adjoining utility area. French doors connect the living spaces with the garden.
Three bedrooms and the family bathroom are on the ground floor, including a principal bedroom with an en suite. A further spacious bedroom is on the first floor beneath sloping ceilings, with fitted storage. The existing layout offers scope to reconfigure or extend, subject to the necessary permissions.
Outside, the property has a garden, a substantial driveway and a double garage. Solar panels and double glazing are listed, with electric heating and a gas mains connection available at the property. Great Glen has village shops, cafés, restaurants, a farm shop and Post Office, and Gartree Grammar School is within walking distance. The A6 provides road links towards Leicester and Market Harborough.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
54out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
The standout here is the setting: a tucked-away position in Great Glen with countryside views, a maintained garden, driveway and double garage. Inside, the house looks usable and well kept, with traditional finishes that offer scope for a light cosmetic refresh rather than a full renovation; the timber kitchen and patterned bathroom tiles are among the more distinctive update opportunities. Solar panels and the stated option to extend or reconfigure subject to planning add further possibilities, though feasibility is not established.
At 54/100, this is a weaker overall opportunity rather than a clear value-led buy. The floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged; the £5,000–£15,000 renovation range points to a relatively modest project, but the available figures are not enough to assess the finished value.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the traditional kitchen, bathroom finishes and living spaces with a light cosmetic update.
- Make the most of the countryside outlook and maintained garden, with the large lounge and separate dining room offering useful existing spaces.
- Explore the listing-stated potential to extend or reconfigure, subject to planning permission and feasibility.
