Property Description
A beautifully presented and full of character, Grade II Listed cottage, once the gatehouse to the grand Belton Park, situated in the conservation village of Manthorpe.

This charming home offers surprisingly spacious accommodation and is rich in original features including exposed stone walls, thick ceiling beams, diamond leaded windows, and a striking brick fireplace — a true blend of historic charm and comfortable living.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall, fitted with a useful storage cupboard, which leads into a stunning open-plan lounge diner.

This impressive living space feels both cosy and atmospheric, with exposed stone and brickwork, deep-set windows with original diamond leads, and a beamed ceiling that adds a sense of timeless character. The focal point of the lounge is a beautiful brick-built fireplace housing a log burner, perfect for cosy evenings by the fire. A traditional cottage staircase rises discreetly to the first floor.

The kitchen is a particular highlight, thoughtfully designed in a country cottage style with Shaker-style cabinetry, a Belfast sink, granite worktops, and integrated appliances including an oven, microwave, hob, and fridge freezer. Every detail has been carefully considered to remain sympathetic to the property's historic feel.

Just off the kitchen, a rear lobby provides access to the bathroom, which features a corner bath with shower over, creating a practical yet stylish space.

Upstairs, the galleried landing is a beautiful feature in its own right, with exposed stone walls, a Velux window filling the space with natural light, ceiling beams, and a fitted storage cupboard.

Two generous double bedrooms complete the first floor, both enjoying character features, with one bedroom offering fitted wardrobes for added convenience.



Outside
Outside, the cottage benefits from a private and enclosed courtyard garden, designed for low maintenance and enjoyment.

The courtyard is block paved and enhanced with lighting and an outdoor tap.

A utility / laundry room provides plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer, while an attractive brick-built outbuilding with lighting and power offers additional storage or workshop space. A handy wood store completes the courtyard.

The cottage has been recently updated with new flooring throughout and secondary glazing, improving comfort and efficiency without compromising on its historic character. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly unique, lovingly maintained period home, blending history and modern living in a picturesque village setting.

Mains water, drainage, gas and electricity are all connected.
