Set on a generous plot in a sought-after Rutland village, this four-bedroom detached house offers versatile accommodation and a large south-facing garden. The layout includes four reception rooms, a conservatory and a kitchen with direct garden access, making it a practical family base within easy reach of Rutland Water and local amenities.
The property retains mid‑century character — double-aspect rooms, a sitting room with log-burning stove and underfloor heating, and substantial driveway parking for up to five cars. There is scope to modernise and personalise throughout; some elements reflect the house’s 1960s–70s origins and would benefit from updating to current preferences and efficiencies.
Practical considerations are straightforward: freehold tenure, mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and no flood risk. The energy performance is rated D and broadband speeds are slow, which may matter to home workers or streaming households. Council tax is above average for the area.
For families, the village provides a village school, shop, surgery and recreational clubs, while Oakham, Stamford and Uppingham are all within a short drive. Buyers seeking a spacious home with a large private garden and clear potential to add value will find this property especially appealing.
