Main Street, Thistleton, LE15

Utterly unique and set within two acres of land lies an exciting opportunity to acquire Rosedene, a Grade II listed cottage with full planning permission to restore and extend the home and outbuildings, to create a sublime family home extending to nearly 2,400 square feet in the charming Rutland village of Thistleton.

The Site

Situated on 2 acres, the site has a detailed planning permission for the extension and external alterations to existing dwelling (including windows and doors), restoration of outbuilding and provision of ancillary residential floorspace, erection of carport, demolition of outbuilding and associated landscaping. Rutland County Council granted planning permission in November 2024 (Ref:2024/0816/FUL). Built using locally sourced stone, complemented by natural timber framing and anthracite sliding doors, the single storey extension will be linked to the existing home by a striking aluminium framed glass link with glazed roof, creating a seamless connection between old and new. To the main home lie four bedrooms that will benefit from unbroken field views. An existing stone outbuilding will be sympathetically restored to create a series of rooms ideal for games room, home gym and office space.

On Your Doorstep

Step out into the village of Thistleton, where the local church St Nicholas is a social hub for the community, regularly hosting services, as well as coffee mornings and Christmas fairs. Wander the country lanes and paths of Thistleton, and pick up plants for your garden from the Herb Nursery. Embrace the pared back pleasures of country village life. Down the road the thriving village of Market Overton is home to a medical centre, shop, children's playground, bowls and cricket club. If you're out for six, head over and sample the ales at local pub The Black Bull Inn.

Near and Far

Families are well placed for schooling with independent educational options available at Oakham, Uppingham and Stamford Schools. With easy access to the A1 and mainline railway stations, commuters are well-placed for journeys up and down the country, whilst the market towns of Oakham and Melton Mowbray are also close by. Make the short car journey to Oakham for days out shopping or cultural visits to Oakham Castle and Rutland County Museum to discover more about this ravishing rural county.
