Set in the centre of sought-after Swithland, this Grade II listed three-bedroom detached home combines substantial living space with historic character. The house sits well back from Main Street behind granite walls, with a large gated gravel driveway, double garage and private rear garden that directly abuts open paddock land — a rare village setting with long views and strong outdoor appeal.
Interior accommodation is generous and versatile, arranged over multiple floors to provide formal dining, separate lounge, a living-dining kitchen and a magnificent garden room that brings light and garden access. Original period features remain throughout, giving the property character and a distinctive feel, while the overall footprint is extremely large at approximately 2,094 sq ft, offering scope for flexible family layouts.
Important practical points: the property is Grade II listed, which may restrict alterations and will affect maintenance and consent requirements. The property is energy-rating exempt and council tax is in a higher band, so running costs should be considered. The kitchen is country-style and somewhat dated, presenting clear scope for upgrade or modernisation to increase comfort and value.
Swithland village provides a strong community, good primary schooling, nearby nature reserves, and convenient links to Loughborough and the wider road/rail network. For buyers seeking period character, space and a private plot with paddock frontage, this home offers a rare village opportunity — but proceed with surveys and early checks on listed-building consent for any planned changes.
