Description

Forming part of an attractive street scene within the village of Thistleton, in the parish of Market Overton, this is an excellent opportunity to create an attractively designed four bedroom detached home. The site enjoys a good-sized mature plot and benefits from recently approved planning permission, allowing a buyer to build a traditional-looking home whilst still enjoying the advantages of contemporary building regulations, low-energy living, and the ability to finish the property to their own personal taste.

The proposed accommodation will comprise an entrance hall with home office off, cloakroom, living room, and an open plan kitchen diner leading through to a further TV sitting room / sun room area. To the first floor, the design includes a principal bedroom and second bedroom, both with en-suite facilities, together with two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The plot is of a good size and enjoys a mature setting, with a large driveway, garaging and outbuildings, with potential for a home office above, subject to the final specification and layout.

Thistleton is a well-regarded Rutland village forming part of the parish of Market Overton, where there are excellent local amenities within the shared parish. The location is also highly convenient for access to the A1, together with mainline rail services from Grantham, making it well placed for commuting and wider travel.
