The plots are considered to be an ideal opportunity for either a self-build project or for a small scale developer, specialising in ‘one off’ homes.
WALTHAM-ON-THE-WOLDS
Waltham-on-the-Wolds is a picturesque English village in the civil parish of Waltham-on-the-Wolds and Thorpe Arnold, in the Melton borough of Leicestershire. Located approximately 5 miles (8.0 km) north-east of Melton Mowbray and 11 miles (17.7 km) south-west of Grantham.
The village is set on high ground upon a natural ridge, which has an escarpment close to the north-west which spectacularly overlooks the pastoral countryside of the Vale of Belvoir.
Within a few minutes’ walk you will find a well-regarded Church of England, primary school, a small delicatessen and the village post office, along with a popular pub, The Royal Horseshoes Inn, offering high quality food as well as a large village hall and community facility and outdoor recreation and playing area for all ages. The village benefits from a choice of secondary schools including The Priory Belvoir Academy and the Grantham Grammar Schools (The King’s School and Kesteven and Grantham Girls’ School).
The parish church, dedicated to St Mary Magdalene, is built of a local, honey-coloured ironstone which forms the vernacular architecture for much of the period property in this popular village.
