Further benefits include a garage with a powered door and an attached workshop/store, along with a south-facing rear garden. Solar panels help reduce running costs while also generating an income through surplus energy returned to the grid. The property has recently undergone a partial rewire, installation of a new energy-efficient boiler in the loft, and redecoration throughout. Offered to the market with NO ONWARD CHAIN and situated in the highly sought-after village of Bottesford, this is a fantastic opportunity to secure a well-cared-for home with huge potential. 

WHY BOTTESFORD? - Bottesford is widely regarded as one of the most desirable villages in the area, perfectly positioned on the edge of the stunning Vale of Belvoir—literally meaning “beautiful view.” As the largest village within the Vale, it offers an ideal balance of countryside living with everyday convenience, including a train station, local shops, pubs, restaurants, and highly regarded schooling.

Surrounded by rolling countryside, picturesque walks, and historic landmarks such as Belvoir Castle, the area is known for its charm, strong community feel and excellent quality of life. With easy access to Grantham, Nottingham and beyond, Bottesford continues to attract buyers looking for a village lifestyle without feeling isolated—making it consistently one of the most sought-after locations locally.

CONSTRUCTION TYPE - A structural inspection has been carried out on the property, confirming it to be sound with no evidence of ongoing movement or structural concerns. The home is of non-traditional Trusteel construction, a form commonly used in its era and widely accepted by many lenders (subject to individual criteria), and buyers are encouraged to speak with their broker at an early stage. The report identifies only minor, long-standing settlement and age-related features, typical for a property of this type and age, with no structural intervention required. As with many homes of this period, some routine maintenance and future updating may be considered over time; the property presents as a solid and well-performing home. A copy of the structural report is held by the agent and is available for inspection upon request.

SOLAR PANELS - The property also benefits from a south-facing solar panel system, comprising 16 panels installed approximately 10–11 years ago. The system is owned outright and provides electricity directly to the property, helping to reduce ongoing energy costs, with any surplus energy generated being exported back to the grid. While exact figures for the surplus income are not currently available, such schemes are typically linked to inflation, offering the potential for increasing returns over time
