Tucked on Main Street in Goadby Marwood, this four-bedroom detached character cottage offers a rare family-sized home in a peaceful Leicestershire village. The house blends traditional features—exposed beams, feature fireplaces and a large country kitchen—with practical spaces including a study, utility and versatile reception rooms.
The large plot includes a detached double garage with workshop and loft storage, plus a separate garage/playroom — excellent for hobbies, home working or family storage. Off-street parking and mature gardens give space and privacy; there is no onward chain, so a quicker move is possible.
Buyers should note this is a pre-1900 stone-built property with assumed uninsulated sandstone/limestone walls and oil-fired central heating. Although double glazing was installed post-2002, the house may benefit from insulation and modern heating efficiency improvements. The property is structurally appealing but may require ongoing maintenance and potential upgrading to reduce running costs.
Local amenities include village facilities and good primary schools within easy reach, with Melton Mowbray roughly six miles away. The setting suits families seeking character, space for hobbies and countryside living, while practical buyers will value the substantial outbuildings and flexible internal layout.
