Knoll Street, Market Harborough

An individually designed four bedroomed detached family house having a good sized garden enjoying views over open countryside, yet only a short walk from the thriving town centre of Market Harborough. The partially refurbished interior now offers an excellent opportunity to extend, subject to planning, and to complete the refurbishment to create a wonderful family home.

Currently, the refurbished accommodation includes an impressive entrance hall with staircase off, lounge with cast iron log burner and bayed window to front, spacious dining room with windows to two elevations and herringbone parquet floor. The remaining accommodation requires refurbishment, and includes a kitchen, utility room, side lobby and downstairs wc.

On the upper floor off a central landing are four good sized bedrooms and bathroom/wc.

The rear garden is of excellent size, having acquired a parcel of land to the rear, enjoying stunning views over paddock land, with a paved patio and artificial grassed area, with extensive lawn backing onto fields.

To the front of the house is brick block paving for parking of two cars, with a narrow driveway to the side of the house leading to a concrete sectional garage.

Location - The property lies on the western fringes of town within the well established and highly convenient residential area, handy for Welland Park Academy and Robert Smyth Academy. There are nearby walks along the canal towpath, and Welland Park itself is only a short walk away. The town has excellent shopping and supermarket facilities, bars, restaurants, a theatre and leisure centre to the south. For the commuter, there are mainline rail services to London St Pancras in about an hour, and the M1 is accessible at Junction 20.
