Summary - 48, MAIN STREET LE7 9GD
6 bed 3 bath Character Property
Rare countryside plot with substantial renovation potential and no onward chain.
Grade II Listed period house needing full refurbishment
Set on roughly 0.4 acres and backing onto open fields, this Grade II listed village house offers generous six-bedroom accommodation across about 3,050 sq ft. The layout includes two en-suites, multiple reception rooms, a breakfast kitchen, utility, snug, and substantial outbuildings including a double garage. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit modern working needs while the setting delivers strong countryside privacy.
The property is a significant renovation project and is being sold chain free, presenting a blank canvas for a family or buyer seeking remodel potential. Original features such as exposed beams, open fireplaces and built-in cupboards give authentic character but will require sensitive upgrading to meet contemporary standards. Services are connected and the parcel is freehold.
Buyers should note the Grade II listing and placement within a conservation area will restrict alterations and likely add cost and complexity to works. The house currently needs refurbishment throughout; expect modernisation of bathrooms, kitchen, and general fabric works. Council Tax is at band G, reflecting higher ongoing costs.
Positioned in a popular Leicestershire village with good primary schools and easy access to Leicester (around seven miles), the setting is ideal for families seeking countryside living with local amenities nearby. For investors or experienced renovators, the size of the plot and layout provides scope for value-enhancing work, subject to listed building consents.
