This beautifully renovated detached period cottage blends original charm with contemporary finishes across approximately 2,200 sq ft. The large open-plan kitchen/dining/living space and two additional reception rooms create versatile family living, while exposed beams and fireplaces retain character. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite; there are three bathrooms in total.
A sympathetically converted two-storey annexe, the Little Barn, provides self-contained accommodation with a vaulted bedroom, log burner and kitchen. It is currently run successfully as a short-term let/B&B and has previously granted consent in principle to be split into a separate dwelling, offering clear income or multi‑generational living potential.
Externally the plot is attractively landscaped with two driveways, gravelled and paved courtyard areas ideal for entertaining, and planted borders. The village location in Harby offers a strong local community, good primary schooling, very low crime, and convenient commuter links to Leicester, Nottingham and Grantham.
Practical points to note: the courtyard garden is modest rather than expansive; broadband and mobile signal are average; the Little Barn has an EPC rating of D; council tax is above average. Overall this is a substantial village home suited to family life combined with rental or guest accommodation, or for buyers seeking a conversion/separation opportunity subject to any required consents.
