Wren Cottage sits directly opposite Lubenham’s village green and offers the feel of a traditional red-brick cottage with a recently refreshed interior. The current owner has extended and renovated the layout to create a bright, open-plan lounge/dining space with exposed beams, French doors and a compact garden room — a comfortable, low-fuss home for two.
Practicalities are well covered: off-street parking on a block-paved driveway, mains gas central heating, double glazing and a useful separate vegetable garden alongside a courtyard-style patio. The house is offered freehold and chain free, which supports a quicker completion for a buyer wanting to move in soon.
Buyers should note a few material constraints. Local records indicate construction in the late 1960s–1970s despite the period look; double glazing install date is unspecified. The plot is small, limiting scope for large extensions. Broadband speeds are slow and the area records higher-than-average local crime statistics, which may concern some purchasers.
Overall this is a well-presented cottage-style home suited to someone downsizing or seeking a low-maintenance village base close to Market Harborough amenities, with scope to personalise finishes while benefiting from immediate occupancy.
