Summary - MANOR FARMHOUSE MANOR ROAD CLAYBROOKE MAGNA LUTTERWORTH LE17 5AY
7 bed 1 bath Detached
Substantial period home with barn consent, large plot and south-facing garden.
Grade II listed Georgian farmhouse circa 5,335 sq ft
Manor Farmhouse is a substantial Grade II listed Georgian farmhouse offering circa 5,335 sq ft of period accommodation across three storeys. The house retains many original features — tall ceilings, large reception rooms, an impressive central staircase and cellar — and sits in extensive grounds including a south-facing garden, orchard, paddock and spinney (circa 2 acres west). An attached brick barn has consent to be converted and extended into a 1,570 sq ft separate dwelling (planning ref: 23/00615/FUL), creating flexible options for ancillary use or additional income.
This property is best for buyers comfortable with working on a historic home: listed status will complicate alterations and the roof and outbuildings show visible maintenance needs. The layout currently provides seven bedrooms but only one bathroom (plus separate WC), so modernisation and reconfiguration will be required for contemporary family living. Services are connected, but broadband speeds are relatively slow and some building fabric and finishes will need attention.
The site’s scale and rural outlook deliver real long‑term potential — conversion of the barn, the two separate building plots available on site, and large grounds create scope for value enhancement (subject to consents). Note practical constraints: higher council tax (Band G), an above‑average local crime rate, and the responsibilities that come with owning a listed building. For buyers seeking a prominent period home in prosperous countryside, this farmhouse offers character, privacy and development upside if prepared for renovation and listing controls.
