A compact Georgian cottage tucked a short walk from Ashby-de-la-Zouch’s main street. Fully refurbished in 2019 with Listed Building consent, the house combines period features — exposed beams, an arched fireplace and an original pantry door — with modern comforts including engineered oak flooring and bespoke double-glazed windows. The open-plan ground floor feels bright and practical for single occupancy or a couple.
The property is freehold, offered chain-free and sits in a very central, quiet location with a private, secure courtyard rather than a lawn. At about 417 sq ft the layout is efficiently arranged but small; living space and the single bedroom suit a first-time buyer, professional or buy-to-let investor seeking a low-maintenance home close to shops, transport and local amenities.
Important practical notes: this is a Grade II listed building — that preserves character but also means alterations will be restricted and will likely need listed-building permission. The property is EPC exempt and no parking is apparent, which may affect running costs and convenience. Council Tax is low (Band A) and there is no flood risk.
Overall this is a characterful, centrally located cottage that offers instant move-in condition and historic charm. It will particularly appeal to buyers prioritising location, low maintenance and period detail, and to investors targeting reliable town-centre rental stock; those wanting larger rooms, a garden or straightforward modernisation should note the size and listed constraints.
