House For Sale £450,000
A unique and impressive detached character home presenting itself to the market for the first time since its bespoke design and construction circa 1960s. The property boasts an abundance of character features with a warm homely feel, further enhanced by the later addition of the original village Blacksmith’s forge to the right hand side of the property. This forge was incorporated into the main accommodation of the property creating a wonderful family room to the main house. This individually designed and constructed home was built for the current family owners to an exacting design and specification boasting a wonderful array of character, including reuse of original timber beams, the addition of lavish use of oak throughout including oak handrail, staircase, internal panel oak doors with complementary wrought iron door furniture as a nod towards the history of this fascinating property. The house is set beneath a Swithland slate roof with vernacular granite stone detailing, perfectly matching the older forge building to the right hand side of the property. The accommodation benefits from gas warm air heating and majority double glazing with over 1,700 sqft of living accommodation making this deceptive detached residence an ideal family home, all set within walking distance to the local village pub, garden centre/cafe and primary school. The excellent road network nearby gives easy access to Loughborough, Leicester and Melton Mowbray, in addition to Ratcliffe College. The property is offered with no upward chain and would make an ideal family home for those wishing to insert their own design style and ideas to create perhaps the ideal 'forever family home'.
