Description

This two-bedroom stone cottage is situated on Chapel Lane in the Rutland village of Barrowden. The ground floor is arranged with a sitting room, kitchen, utility area and bathroom. Upstairs are two bedrooms, with the second reached through the principal bedroom and potentially usable as a study or dressing room. The listing describes the property as requiring complete renovation throughout, offering scope to rework and update the existing accommodation. Mains water, electricity, gas and drainage are connected, and gas central heating is stated, although the services have not been tested. The property is freehold and offered with vacant possession on completion. Established gardens extend to the front and rear. The rear garden is mainly lawn with mature hedging, while the front has a stone boundary wall and a path to the entrance. Barrowden has a village shop, doctor’s surgery, pharmacy and pub, with Uppingham, Stamford and Oakham within reach. Rutland Water and several golf courses are also nearby. Rail connections are available from Stamford and Peterborough, with the listing noting services from Peterborough to London King’s Cross.

38out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This stone-built link-detached cottage in sought-after Barrowden has a strong setting and established gardens, with a complete renovation offering scope to shape a distinctive village home. The visible exterior shows no clear major structural failure, though the weathered roof coverings warrant closer inspection.

At £200,000, value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged because the floor area is missing. The low overall score also reflects limited information on condition and renovation economics; the listing describes a complete renovation, but the available photos show only the exterior.

Key opportunities

  • Renovate the cottage throughout and tailor its layout and finishes to create a characterful village home.
  • Make the most of the established front and rear gardens, with mature hedging, planting and a lawn already in place.
  • Benefit from a picturesque Barrowden setting with village amenities, nearby market towns and access to Rutland Water.

Key risks

  • Roof coverings appear weathered and need closer inspection.
  • The floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot be judged yet.
