Summary - 78 BROOK STREET WYMESWOLD LOUGHBOROUGH LE12 6TU
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious family living with eco upgrades and large south-facing garden.
Five bedrooms across three floors, generous 2,569 sq ft accommodation
A spacious, characterful five-bedroom family home in the heart of Wymeswold, combining 18th-century charm with recent eco upgrades. The house offers generous living space across three floors, exposed timbers, flagstone floors, a cosy lounge with log burner and a well-equipped kitchen with pantry — practical for everyday family life and entertaining.
Outdoor space is a clear asset: a south-facing lawned garden with mature borders and a large timber shed, plus a side driveway providing off-street parking and scope to create additional patio or parking space. Solar panels and a modern heat pump reduce running costs compared with a typical oil-heated period property, while double glazing improves comfort throughout.
There are material points to note. The property dates from the 1730s and has solid brick walls that are likely uninsulated; further insulation work may be required to maximise energy efficiency. Main heating is still oil-fired via boiler and radiators, and council tax is above average. The home sits in an area with a medium flood risk — buyers should seek specialist advice and insurance quotes.
Set on a picturesque village street within walking distance of local pubs, shop and primary school, this sizeable detached house will suit families seeking character, space and rural community life, and also buyers prepared to carry out sympathetic upgrading to improve thermal performance and long-term running costs.
