A commanding 1920s five-bedroom home on a large corner plot, this property combines authentic period character with substantial family living space. Original pine doors, exposed beams, high ceilings and a stained-glass window give the house strong historic appeal while large reception rooms and a conservatory create flexible living for family life and entertaining.
The kitchen/breakfast room and utility are well appointed and the tandem garage offers secure parking plus scope to convert the rear into an annex for multi-generational use. The private, well-enclosed rear garden and covered veranda provide low-maintenance outdoor space and good privacy from the high-level brick frontage.
Practical benefits include freehold tenure, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, no flood risk and close walking distance to Market Harborough station and several well-rated schools. These make the house particularly suitable for commuters and growing families wanting space and character in a prosperous area.
Notable considerations: there are only two bathrooms for five bedrooms and council tax is described as expensive. While well maintained, the house is a period property from 1920 and buyers should allow for typical older-property maintenance and potential modernisation to suit contemporary tastes.
