Summary - 81 MAIN STREET EMPINGHAM OAKHAM LE15 8PR
3 bed 2 bath Character Property
Charming village home with large south garden and off-street parking.
Grade II listed stone cottage with exposed beams and fireplaces
This Grade II listed stone cottage sits on Main Street in Empingham, offering a blend of period charm and comfortable family living. Exposed stonework, inglenook and gas fireplaces and window seats create cosy reception rooms, while a kitchen with bay window and separate utility room add practical everyday convenience. The long lounge and adjoining sunroom with bi-fold doors extend living space directly onto a south-facing patio.
Outside, the large, private south-facing garden and generous block-paved driveway provide rare village conveniences: space for entertaining, lawned amenity and ample off-street parking with an electric car charging point. The layout includes three bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, a family bathroom and an additional shower room — appealing for families or buyers seeking a character home with flexible accommodation.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status. As a Grade II cottage, alterations and extensions will be subject to stricter planning and listed-building consent, which can complicate renovation or modernisation. The house also has parts with lower ceiling heights and traditional room proportions; prospective purchasers should check measurements and consider a survey for services and structure.
Set in a very affluent, low-crime village close to schools, shops, pubs and Rutland Water, this home suits buyers who value character, privacy and village life over a blank‑canvas, modern shell. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the balance of original features and usable outdoor space in person.
