** INDIVIDUAL DETACHED PERIOD HOME ** UP TO 5 BEDROOMS & 3 RECEPTIONS ** GENEROUS 1/5 ACRE PLOT ** AMPLE PARKING & GARAGE ** DELIGHTFUL RURAL ASPECTS ** EDGE OF THE VILLAGE LOCATION ** CONSIDERABLE POTENTIAL ** ACCOMMODATION IN THE REGION OF 2,000SQ.FT. ** VIEWING HIGHLY RECOMMENDED **
A really interesting and unique opportunity to purchase an attractive brick and stone detached period home occupying a generous plot of around 1/5 of an acre on the outskirts of this highly regarded Vale of Belvoir village. Although offered to the market on one title the property is actually currently split into two separate dwellings each with their own council tax band rating and have been utilised as a long term home but combined with an investment property under a short hold tenancy.
Combined the dwelling offers around 2,000sq.ft. of accommodation comprising a main entrance hall which leads through into three main reception rooms, a kitchen (with additional kitchen in the tenanted element of the property), a large walk in pantry and utility with a ground floor cloak room leading off a rear entrance hall. To the first floor the combined properties provide five bedrooms and two bathrooms.
The property is likely to require a general program of modernisation throughout and would be a fantastic blank canvas with the potential to create a truly interesting, well proportioned home in a delightful setting with generous outdoor space, parking and garaging and excellent panoramic views across adjacent countryside.
Overall viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate the potential on offer.
