Set on a generous corner plot in one of Rutland’s most desirable villages, this five-bedroom detached house offers substantial space and clear potential for modernisation. The double garage, wide driveway and large rear garden with woodland backdrop provide a rare canvas for family living and exterior improvement.
Internally the layout is practical for family life: a large living/dining room that flows to a conservatory, a separate kitchen with utility and a downstairs WC. Upstairs are five bedrooms and a family bathroom — ample accommodation, though the property's fittings and finishes will require updating to meet contemporary expectations.
This home is offered chain free, making it suitable for buyers who want to move quickly to refurbish or extend (subject to planning). Note the property needs renovation and upgrades; buyers should allow budget for modernising kitchens, bathrooms, heating and electrics as required. Broadband speeds are slow despite excellent mobile signal, which may matter for home working.
Positioned a short walk from village amenities, a well-regarded primary school and the shores of Rutland Water, this property will suit growing families or purchasers seeking a spacious plot in a peaceful rural setting. Its combination of size, location and flexibility makes it a strong proposition for those prepared to invest in improvement.
