Chain-free four-bedroom detached home with large plot and double garage.
Prime central Oakham location, walkable to shops and schools
Set on a large corner plot in the heart of Oakham, this detached four-bedroom home offers rare central convenience and substantial scope to improve. The property is chain free and includes a detached double garage, driveway parking and a private south-facing rear garden — strong assets for family life or rental appeal.
The interior is spacious and traditionally laid out with a generous entrance hall, large living room with dual aspect, separate dining/study room and a kitchen/breakfast room that opens to the garden. Upstairs are four bedrooms served by a single family bathroom. The house totals around 1,555 sq ft and sits on an above-average council tax band.
The home is offered as a renovation project: many original mid-century fittings remain (notably a 1970s kitchen) and the property will reward someone willing to modernise and personalise. There is clear potential for extension or reconfiguration, subject to planning permission, which could significantly increase living space and value.
Location is a principal selling point. Everything Oakham town centre offers — shops, cafés, good schools and rail links — is within easy reach, while Rutland countryside and Rutland Water are a short drive away. Low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband add to the property’s day-to-day appeal.
