General Description
Smiths Property Experts are favoured with instruction to market this beautifully extended and renovated former working cottage set in private grounds extending to circa 1/3 of an acre in the sought-after village of West Leake. The property enjoys far-reaching views to the front and rear across beautiful open countryside, with three large double bedrooms and a centrepiece ‘open-plan living kitchen’.
The cottage has been refurbished to an excellent standard by the current owners and offers considerable potential to further extend the property or add a collection of useful outbuildings. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a wonderful home in a superb village.
The Property
The main house is connected to all mains services, and has been internally refurbished and extended with a huge amount of care and attention to detail. Extending to approximately 1,300 square feet, the internal finish is excellent.
Expect to find accommodation comprising, in brief, an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first-floor landing, a sitting room with a wood-burning stove, a boot/utility room, a downstairs WC, and a wonderful centrepiece kitchen, dining, and living area with direct garden access. Upstairs are three large double bedrooms. There is a beautiful four-piece family bathroom with a walk-in shower and slipper bath, and the main bedroom has en-suite facilities. There is planning permission active to add a garden room extension to the rear should the eventual purchaser wish.
