A substantial, character farmhouse dating from c.1650, set in roughly one acre of private, mature gardens in the heart of Hemington village. The house has been fully upgraded and modernised while retaining many original features — exposed beams, panelled doors, multiple fireplaces and Georgian/Yorkshire sash windows — giving a rare blend of period charm and contemporary living.
Accommodation is generous and flexible: five bedrooms across three storeys (three doubles on the first floor, two further bedrooms on the second), a principal en‑suite, two family bathrooms, and around ten principal rooms including four reception rooms and a large open-plan living/dining kitchen. Practical extras include a cellar, substantial parking for several vehicles within a gravelled courtyard, an adjoining brick outbuilding for storage and a games room with mezzanine that could form part of an annex or home office.
Significant positives are the plot size and privacy — extensive lawns, mature borders and fruit trees provide a very private garden environment — and recent comprehensive upgrades to services and fittings. The property suits a family seeking a character village home with easy access to regional roads, rail and East Midlands Airport.
Important practical points: the house is very old and while renovated, some traditional construction elements remain (solid brick walls assumed uninsulated, thatched/period roof elements shown in images) which can mean ongoing maintenance and potential conservation considerations. There is a medium flood risk recorded for the area and council tax is described as quite expensive. Buyers should verify measurements, appliances and legal/title matters independently.
