Occupying a delightful position in the heart of the ever-popular village of Great Bowden, Ivy Cottage is a charming Victorian terrace that effortlessly combines timeless character with tasteful modern styling. Rich in original features, including exposed beams, a feature fireplace and traditional proportions, this beautifully presented home enjoys the rare benefit of courtyard gardens to both the front and rear, all whilst being just a stone’s throw from Market Harborough town centre and its mainline railway station.

Beyond lies a separate dining room, offering an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining, before leading through to the well-appointed galley kitchen. Thoughtfully designed to maximise the space, the kitchen provides a good range of fitted cabinetry and appliances include a cooker, extractor fan, hob, fridge and washing machine.

Completing the ground floor is a well-presented bathroom, fitted with a contemporary three-piece white suite. To the first floor are two bedrooms, including an excellent principal bedroom with a substantial built-in wardrobe, fitted shelving and access to the loft space. The second bedroom enjoys a pleasant outlook over the rear garden and offers flexibility as a guest bedroom or home office.

Outside - The cottage is equally charming externally, with attractive courtyard gardens to both the front and rear, providing delightful spaces to relax and enjoy the sun at different times of the day. The rear courtyard offers a private and low-maintenance setting, ideal for al fresco dining or your morning coffee, whilst the front garden enhances the property's appealing kerb appeal.
