4 bed 3 bath Detached
Period character with modern refit, double garage and private garden.
Extensive newly refurbished four-bedroom cottage
Set in the heart of Cossington, this newly refurbished four-bedroom cottage combines period character with contemporary living. The ground floor delivers a versatile layout: study, cosy lounge and a large open-plan kitchen/diner with bifold doors opening to a private, partially walled rear garden. A utility and cloakroom add practical family convenience.
Upstairs are four generous bedrooms, including a master with ensuite, a stylish family bathroom and a wide galleried landing that works well as a home office or play area. High-quality recent upgrades include new heating, wiring, windows, kitchen, bathrooms, decoration and flooring — move-in ready with modern standards throughout. Energy rating C reflects improved efficiency.
Outside there is a sizeable double garage and on-street parking in the village centre. Cossington offers a strong village community with a primary school rated Good, a pub, church and countryside walks along the River Soar. Fast road links serve Leicester, Loughborough and East Midlands Airport, making commuting straightforward.
Notable drawbacks: the house is an older solid-brick build (circa 1900–1929) and may have limited cavity insulation, which can affect long-term heating costs despite the new boiler. The property sits in Council Tax Band F, which is relatively expensive. Parking is primarily on street in addition to the garage, which may be a consideration for households with multiple vehicles.
