Characterful, low-maintenance home close to village amenities and countryside.
Freehold one-bedroom period cottage in village centre
Set on Main Street in the sought-after village of Dunton Bassett, this one-bedroom period cottage blends original character with comfortable living. Exposed brickwork, sash-style windows and a wood-burning stove give the sitting room a warm, rustic feel, while the compact dining area and galley kitchen are practical for everyday use. The property is chain free and offered as a freehold — appealing for first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-hassle purchase.
Upstairs, a double bedroom and generous bathroom (with roll-top bath and timber floor) provide a peaceful retreat. The private walled courtyard garden at the rear is secluded and easy to maintain, ideal for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The cottage sits within walking distance of the village pub and countryside walks, with Lutterworth and main road links a short drive away.
Buyers should note the modest internal footprint: rooms are compact and circulation space is limited, best suited to a single occupant or couple rather than a growing family. The property’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated and the double glazing dates from before 2002, which may mean higher heating costs or improvement works to boost thermal efficiency. On-street parking is limited in the village centre.
Overall, this cottage offers genuine village charm, a manageable garden, and immediate availability with no onward chain. It represents a straightforward entry into rural living or a let-ready investment, with potential to improve energy performance and modernise finishes according to buyer preference.
