Summary - 56 Market Place, Mountsorrel, Loughborough LE12 7BA
Grade II Listed character cottage in village centre
A handsome Grade II Listed three-bedroom cottage in the heart of Mountsorrel, offered chain free and set within easy walking distance of the village Butter Market, shops and riverside. The house retains period detail including front sash windows, stone fireplace and high ceilings, while practical features include gas central heating and a long gated driveway that continues through to a generous rear garden.
The property sits on a large plot with a rare 60' garage/workshop at the bottom of the garden — ideal for hobbyists, parking or conversion subject to consents. Internally the layout is traditional: three reception rooms, breakfast kitchen, ground-floor bathroom, three double bedrooms, dressing room and shower room. The size and room count give flexible options for family living, a home office or multi-generation arrangements.
This house will suit buyers prepared to invest. It requires renovation and upgrading (solid brick walls assumed to lack insulation) and its listed status will limit permitted works and add complexity and cost. The vendors retain a right to apply an overage to the rear garden if redeveloped for further dwellings — any purchaser should factor this into future plans.
Practical points: gas boiler and radiators provide heating, windows are double glazed (install date unknown), and the property is freehold. The location is central and convenient but the immediate area records above-average crime levels; viewings and budgets should reflect potential repair, listed-building consent and planning considerations.
