This Grade II listed cottage in the heart of Newtown Linford blends genuine period character with a skilful modern extension. Exposed beams, original fireplaces and a Swithland slate roof create authentic charm, while the extended open-plan kitchen with island and bi-fold doors offers spacious, family-friendly living and easy garden access.
The property provides flexible accommodation across two staircases: two original bedrooms plus an additional double/first-floor reception in the extended wing. A single, well-appointed Jack-and-Jill bathroom serves the three bedrooms. Outside, a south-facing garden, cobbled patio, brick store, driveway and rare single garage complete the plot — well suited to village life and Bradgate Park access.
Important practical points are clear: the cottage’s Grade II listing and conservation area status will restrict alterations and could complicate works or extensions. There is only one bathroom for three bedrooms, council tax is above average, and broadband is standard rather than superfast. Buyers should also verify flood risk and services independently.
For families or buyers seeking character with modern living, this chain-free cottage offers immediate occupancy and long-term potential. It’s a rare central-village opportunity for someone who values historic detail, a generous garden and drive/garage parking, while accepting listed-building limitations.
