A distinctly unique detached home tucked away close to heart of this popular village. Enjoyed by the present owners for over 40 years and with open plan living, dining, kitchen, conservatory, ground floor second bedroom/study, low-maintenance garden, car port and parking it is ideal for downsizers seeking a lock up and leave bolthole.

Accommodation - Step into the generous-sized porch, kick off your shoes and through into a welcoming, cosy hall with feature exposed brick wall. Ahead of you is a handy guest cloakroom.

To your right and the towards the front of the property you will find a ground floor second bedroom, currently used as a study/snug. The main living space is open plan with a central staircase providing a striking and effective partition between the breakfast kitchen and dining/living room. Natural light floods the space through the sliding patio doors to the rear and window to the side, while a feature fireplace set against an exposed brick hearth provides a perfect focal point.

The kitchen is well equipped with an extensive range of wall and base units providing ample storage. There is an integrated dishwasher, electric oven and hob, and plumbing and space for a washing machine, with space for a fridge/freezer in the corner. From here a door leads into the conservatory which offers a lovely spot to enjoy views of the garden and trees beyond.

Upstairs the bedroom feels bright and spacious and features a dressing area accessed via an arch which in turn leads to the ensuite shower room.

Outside - A blocked paved drive to the front provides parking for several vehicles and leads to the canopied car porch. Gated access to the side leads through to the rear garden. A private, walled, low-maintenance space which enjoys a bright and sunny south-westerly aspect. The perfect spot to enjoy relaxing outdoors with minimal effort and upkeep.

The village offers a popular public house, well-regarded primary school and has easy access to Market Harborough which has a wide range of day-to-day amenities and the mainline railways station with links to St Pancras, London in under an hour.
