An attractive double-fronted stone village house, with detached cottage within its mature gardens in an attractive setting almost equidistant between Grantham, Melton Mowbray and Oakham


Description

Set back across a Green from the village’s lane, Appletree House (officially named 19 Main Street) is an attractive double fronted stone house, which was extended and reconfigured by the previous owners in 2016.

Presented in first class order, with a modern layout and flow that fits modern family life, this well-appointed house has two reception rooms and four bedrooms (one en-suite), whilst the dining kitchen is particularly impressive, combining a beautiful kitchen with a convivial space for family life or entertaining. This splendid kitchen is supplemented by a large utility, boot room.

In addition, a detached stone cottage within the grounds is ideal for relatives. It is currently used for storage and has been the seller’s business base, whilst it has also been let as a successful Air bnb holiday cottage by past owners.

Outside

The gardens are walled and are largely laid to lawn with mature deciduous and fruit trees framing views to grassland pasture.

Alongside the driveway entrance, a stone garage/outbuilding store has a studio office adjoining it.
