Chain-free two-bed cottage with large garden and strong renovation potential.
Detached Victorian stone lodge on gated Garendon Park entrance
Snells Nook Lodge is a detached Victorian stone lodge set on the gated entrance to Garendon Park, offering an unusually large plot and parking for several vehicles. The property is chain free and arranged over two floors, with two reception rooms, two bedrooms and a single bathroom — a compact footprint with strong period character and scope to improve.
The setting is a key strength: Grade II parkland on your doorstep, established trees, a private driveway and a detached single garage, plus useful outbuildings. Interiors retain character features such as a log burner and brick fireplace, while double glazing has been added after 2002.
Practical considerations include an EPC rating of F, oil-fired central heating and stone walls that are assumed uninsulated. The cottage requires modernization throughout and would suit buyers willing to invest in upgrading heating, insulation and kitchen/bathroom fittings. The house offers excellent renovation potential for a family seeking a countryside-feel home close to Loughborough amenities.
This property will appeal to buyers after character, space and location rather than a move-in-ready finish. Its position at Garendon Park’s entrance, generous garden and outbuildings create options: convert, extend (subject to consents), or refurbish to improve energy performance and layout.
