Little Orchard, Knossington

OPEN HOUSE - SATURDAY 4TH JULY - 11AM-1PM - NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY 

Attractively set within its own woodland glade, with south-facing views across specimen trees and mature woodland beyond, this detached three-bedroom bungalow occupies a particularly private setting within the former grounds of Knossington Hall.

Approached via a long driveway away from the road, the property enjoys a peaceful position whilst remaining within easy reach of Oakham, the A47 and Leicester beyond. Knossington itself is a highly regarded Rutland village with a renowned gastro pub and attractive surrounding countryside.

The accommodation is well proportioned throughout and includes an entrance hall, large reception room with garden outlook, fitted kitchen with utility room off, separate study, three bedrooms and bathroom facilities. A garden room provides an additional space to enjoy the surrounding views and grounds.

Outside, the property benefits from extensive gravelled parking and turning areas, a detached double garage and mature gardens which blend seamlessly into the surrounding woodland setting. The south-facing grounds provide a wonderful backdrop and create a unique feeling of seclusion rarely found so close to village amenities. The woodland glade is abundant with wildlife, with deer and badgers regularly seen within the grounds, together with established badger setts and a variety of resident and visiting rare woodland birds which have chosen to make this special setting their home.

Knossington is one of Rutland's most desirable villages, situated amongst rolling countryside just a short drive from the market town of Oakham. The village is well known for its attractive period properties, thriving community and highly regarded gastro pub. Excellent road links are available via the A47, providing easy access to Leicester, Uppingham and the wider Midlands, whilst mainline rail services can be found from nearby Oakham, Market Harborough and Peterborough.
