Description
We have pleasure in offering to the market this really interesting, individual family home occupying a generous plot which lies in the region of 1/4 of an acre and with the benefit of additional planning approval for a single storey contemporary home at the rear. This in turn offers great potential, as it could appeal to a wider audience either with from somebody wishing to split the site and retain one or other of the dwellings or those with extended families who may see younger generations living in the original home and constructing a single storey dwelling to the rear for dependent relatives.
The original house offers a great deal of character and stands as a delightful period home overlooking its generous south to westerly facing garden at the rear. Internally the property offers around 1,450 sq.ft. of accommodation with four bedrooms and two main reception areas and retains much of its original character.
The property does require a general program of modernisation based on today's requirements but because it has been relatively untouched over the decades much of the period atmosphere has been retained and provides an excellent starting point to create a beautiful family home.
In addition to the main accommodation the planning approval, which was granted in October 2024, allows for the construction of an interesting, contemporary, single storey home which will extend to around 1,000 sq.ft. and, in itself, could be a really useful addition to the site, perfect for extended families or simply as a development project.
Overall viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location, accommodation and potential on offer.

Exterior - The property occupies a fantastic, well proportioned, established plot which, in its current layout, provides gardens to four sides set back from the lane behind a picket fenced frontage with leylandii hedging and adjacent driveway providing off road car standing for numerous vehicles. We understand from the vendors, located within the frontage is a freshwater well. The gardens lie to all sides, the predominance being to the southerly aspect being mainly laid to lawn with well stocked perimeter borders having an abundance of trees and shrubs. The property does however benefit from planning permission granted to split the garden, creating a building plot at the foot with a proposal for a single storey, contemporary dwelling with access on the easterly side leading off Station Road. Even with this completed this will still leave a relatively generous garden by modern standards for the original dwelling and clearly suggests the considerable potential of the site.
In addition to the main dwelling the property has planning approval granted in October 2024 by Melton Borough Council under application number 24/00543/FUL for an interesting, self build, detached, single storey home designed with very much a contemporary look to create an individual property which, under the current plans, would extend to around 1,000 sq.ft. Although this may offer potential for a future purchaser to split the site it could also be opened up to a wider market, possibly for families with dependent relatives, or extended families, who may look to amalgamate the site, making use of both the main period home as well as the planning approval at the rear.
Further details can be found on Melton Borough Council's planning portal under the above application.
