Summary - 2 BAILEYS LANE BURTON OVERY LEICESTER LE8 9DD

3 bed 2 bath Detached

Chain‑free plot with permission to create a large contemporary family home.
Full planning permission for ~300 sq m six‑bed remodel and extensions
Set on a generous corner plot of approximately 0.35 acres in the heart of Burton Overy, this detached mid‑20th century house offers rare scope to create a substantially larger family home. Full architect‑designed planning permission has been granted to extend and remodel to around 300 sq m (circa 3,229 sq ft), transforming the current three‑bed layout into a six‑bedroom residence with large open‑plan living spaces and strong south‑westerly views over an adjoining paddock.

The existing house provides a practical base: gas central heating, mainly UPVC double glazing, garden room, and a sizeable garage with driveway parking. The plot’s mature borders and elevated outlook deliver privacy and pleasant countryside aspects; the neighbouring paddock is held by a village collective to protect the open view. The property is offered chain free, which simplifies an immediate start to renovation or development.

Buyers should note material considerations: the current exterior and some internal spaces are dated and will require modernisation to realise the planning consent’s full potential. The approved works include felling several trees and substantial cladding and extensions—prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves with Harborough District Council planning documentation and any landscaping implications. Council tax is described as expensive and this larger finished home will carry higher running costs.

This location will suit families seeking excellent village amenities and access to high‑performing independent and good state schools, or investors/developers looking for a permitted, high‑value rebuild in a very affluent rural pocket close to Leicester and Market Harborough. The plot, planning permission and chain‑free position together offer a clear, high‑potential opportunity for conversion into a striking contemporary country home.
