Set in the sought-after village of Great Bowden, this three-bedroom mid-terrace blends period charm with a modern, open-plan extension. The living room retains original features including a sash window and multi-fuel burner; the rear extension creates a vaulted kitchen/dining/family room with skylights and bifold doors onto the landscaped garden. The property is offered with no upward chain and includes off-street parking—a strong draw for commuters and families.
The house benefits from a scenic, south-facing view across neighbouring fields and is within walking distance of local shops, an outstanding primary school and Market Harborough station with direct London links. Accommodation is arranged over three floors and totals approximately 1,032 sq ft; three double bedrooms and a generous family bathroom provide practical family space. Fixtures are high quality throughout, including a Rangemaster cooker and built-in Sharps wardrobes in the main bedroom.
Important practical points: walls are original solid brick with no known added cavity insulation, and the double glazing was installed before 2002. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow locally. Tenure is not specified in the information provided. Prospective buyers should factor potential improvement costs for insulation and modern connectivity if these are priorities.
Overall this is a characterful village family home with immediate commuter appeal and scope to improve energy performance and digital connectivity. It will suit buyers who value period detail, countryside outlooks and a generous, sociable kitchen/family space.
