The Old Barn, Upper Broughton

A detached single storey property occupying a superb plot within this favoured village with formal gardens and paddock extending to circa 2.06 acres in total which lends itself to reconfiguration, improvement and or potential redevelopment (subject to any necessary consents being obtained).

General Description - Alexanders of Melton Mowbray are delighted to offer to the market for the first time in nearly 27 years this single storey home converted from the former cow sheds that belonged to Whitehouse Farm (adjacent, neighbouring property) and enjoying a prime location in the heart of this coveted, well serviced village allowing easy access to Nottingham, Leicester, Loughborough, and Melton Mowbray.

The property has been basically improved in recent years to facilitate private letting on an AST basis. Please note the property is offered with full vacant possession upon legal completion.

The internal accommodation is deceptively spacious offering five double bedrooms with a principal with ensuite. The reception space offers well proportioned rooms with a fully fitted breakfast/dining kitchen, living room, snug and w.c./cloakroom.

Externally the property faces Station Road with its own private driveway to the side with five bar gate leading into a rear hardstanding with parking for several cars. The level, regular shaped plot is segregated into several parts by post and rail, timber fencing, copper beach hedge to the Eastern boundary (adjacent to White House Farm) and a brick wall to the Northern boundary backing onto open pastureland with far reaching open rural views. The mature, well stocked enclosed gardens are partially laid to lawn, with vegetable garden and copse area including a mature horse chestnut tree. There is a detached double garage accessed off the driveway.

In total the gardens and paddock extend to 2.06 acres with significant potential in our view for possible future redevelopment (subject to obtaining any necessary consents).
