Knossington Road, Withcote, Rutland

A charming, red-brick, four-bedroom semi-detached cottage, set in a peaceful location in the scattered hamlet of Withcote, featuring a west-facing garden with countryside views, off-road parking, outbuildings and a quarter-acre woodland area.

Accommodation - Enter the property into an entrance hall, with doors leading to the ground floor accommodation and stairs rising to the first floor. The kitchen is positioned at the front of the property and features a range of fitted units, space for free-standing appliances, and an external door opening out to a walled courtyard. To the rear of the property are two well-proportioned reception rooms, each with feature fireplaces and French doors that open out to the garden. A downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

The bedroom and bathroom accommodation is arranged over the first and second floors. The first floor offers two generously sized double bedrooms and a single bedroom, all benefiting from built-in wardrobes and served by a well-appointed family bathroom. The bathroom includes a corner bath, separate shower, wash hand basin, low flush WC, and a heated towel rail.

A walled courtyard directly off the kitchen offers a private and sheltered seating area. Additionally, the property benefits from a quarter-acre woodland area that sits adjacent to the driveway, accessed via a five-bar timber gate.
