Spacious period residence set in half-acre private gardens near Market Harborough.
Five double bedrooms across three storeys with vaulted ceilings in attic rooms
Set in the heart of Hallaton, this late-18th-century Georgian house blends generous period proportions with mature, private gardens of just over half an acre. High ceilings, large sash windows with shutters and two reception rooms create an immediately welcoming family layout, while the dining kitchen and pantry provide practical, characterful everyday living space. The principal bedroom is a standout with partial vaulting, built wardrobes and a Juliet balcony overlooking the grounds.
The plot is a major asset: secluded lawns, mature trees, patios (one with an outdoor bar), greenhouse and potting shed make this an excellent home for gardening, entertaining and outdoor family life. Off-street parking for two cars and several outbuildings add useful storage and flexibility. Gas is not present — heating is oil-fired — and there is a cellar providing additional storage.
This property is Grade II listed. That status preserves historic detail but will create restrictions and additional costs for extension, alteration and some repairs. The house has been sympathetically updated in many areas (recent high-spec family bathroom) but prospective buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance typical of historic homes, and for listed-building consent where works are planned.
Located in a sought-after village with local amenities, recreational facilities and good access to Market Harborough and Leicester, this is a character-filled family home in a very affluent area. Council Tax Band G reflects higher running costs. Overall, the house offers rare scale, historic character and a large private plot, best suited to buyers who value period charm and accept the responsibilities of owning a listed property.
