Long Lane, Billesdon, Leicester, Leicestershire, LE7

Nestled at the end of a quiet dead-end lane in the sought-after village of Billesdon, this delightful three-bedroom cottage offers a wonderful blend of period character, modern improvements and peaceful countryside surroundings.

Believed to date back to 1858, the property retains a wealth of character, including attractive fireplaces and a log burner, while having been thoughtfully updated over the years to provide comfortable modern living.

The ground floor comprises a welcoming kitchen, lounge and useful storage space. The kitchen benefits from a range cooker, bespoke storage and a practical layout, while the lounge features beautiful wood flooring, creating a warm and inviting space with the log burner providing a cosy focal point.

Outside, the property benefits from a driveway providing parking for up to three cars. The garden enjoys a particularly peaceful setting, backing towards a field and featuring a bank planted with established shrubs and flowers. The garden has also previously been used as a productive vegetable garden, offering excellent potential for those with green fingers.

Positioned at the end of a quiet lane and close to open countryside, the property enjoys a tranquil village setting while remaining within easy reach of everyday amenities. Billesdon is a community-oriented village offering a primary school, village shop and post office, community centre, pub, playground and wildlife preservation area, together with a strong sense of community.
