Description

Alexanders of Market Bosworth are excited to offer to the market this exceptional detached dormer style property set within a plot of circa 1.1 acres at the end of the quiet no through road of Ormes Lane, Ratcliffe Culey.

General Description - The property is in need of cosmetic upgrading but offers tremendous potential to redevelop or extend subject to necessary consents. Sitting neatly in the centre of this well planted mature plot, ‘Fuschia Cottage’ is accessed via a 200ft sweeping driveway leading to a detached double garage and the main house.

Accommodation - Internally, the property requires extensive modernisation to meet modern standards but offers huge potential to create a one of a kind country home. Currently, the living accommodation is laid across two floors with three bedrooms and the family bathrooms on the first floor. With three reception rooms, a further bedroom, wc and the kitchen/diner.

External - The plot is nothing short of impressive; a treelined driveway is flanked by well maintained lawns, established borders and is kept private by its’ maturity of trees and hedging surrounding the perimeter, beyond the formal gardens is an orchard that in turn leads into more gardens that over the years have been unkept.

Location - 'Fuschia Cottage' is located on Ormes Lane in the picturesque village of Ratcliffe Culey and is situated between Atherstone and Sheepy Magna. The village boasts an active community with the local All Saints Church and community centre. It also has the popular The Gate Inn pub as well as the village post office. The village is well positioned for commuting via M1, M69 and M42 motorway networks.

Measurements - Every care has been taken to reflect the true dimensions of this property, but they should be treated as approximate and for general guidance only.

Tenure - Freehold.
