GEORGIAN FARMHOUSE, STABLES, LAND AND MORE...

Located in the popular Leicestershire village of Nether Broughton, in the Vale of Belvoir, this Georgian family home is part of Limes Farm. This is a splendid property with an extensive walled garden, courtyard area which includes a brick hovel. To the rear is a stable yard, Atcost general purpose building and two storey brick barn.

Set in a total of approximately 3.6acres of gardens and grassland.

ALSO AVAILABLE UNDER SEPARATE NEGOTIATION - three (3) paddocks and a building plot for 4x 3 bed semi-detached houses inc garages. Two bedroom detached bungalow and a additional grass paddock.

The Farmhouse - Approached by a gravelled driveway, Limes Farm is located off Middle Lane, Nether Broughton, a sought after village between the vibrant City of Nottingham and the historic town of Melton Mowbray.

This fine Georgian Family Home is part of several lots that Shoulers are selling and the extensive accommodation must be viewed internally.

Downstairs, the property is dominated by three reception rooms which include Living Room, Dining Room and a Drawing Room, all extensive rooms with period features. The bespoke kitchen / breakfast room is at the heart of the property and one can imagine family time spent around the table and warm Aga. For any chefs, the kitchen is well equipped with plenty of appliance space, feature Belfast sink and granite work surfaces. A separate utility compliments the kitchen perfectly providing extra appliance space and external access to the courtyard. Completing the downstairs accommodation is a separate WC.

Upstairs, via the unique oval spiral staircase, on the first floor you’ll find four large double bedrooms and two bathrooms. The configuration at present lends itself to forming a part self-contained area of the property whereby you could have a living room, bedroom, and bathroom, ideal for elderly relatives or a teenage suite.

Ascend to the second floor and you’ll find two further double bedrooms.

Outside, the property has a walled garden which is mainly laid to lawn and has a variety of mature and well-established trees and shrubs. We note from the vendors that none are protected.

We have already referred to several Lots being available, and it is possible that this property could be of Equestrian use as there are Stables and Paddock Land also available at The Limes Farm.

In conclusion, this a grand family home which has been in the same family for many generations. There is also the opportunity to purchase further lots alongside it. The versatile accommodation makes it easy to work from home or as suggested, accommodate an extended family. Sales like this do not come to the market very often and we urge you to book your tour with our County Chambers office in Melton Mowbray.

The Yard - To the rear of the farm house there is a brick barn which is currently used as a garage and includes an electric roller garage door, with alternative access from the yard through double barn doors, joined to the barn are 5 standard brick stables, an additional 3 pony stables off the driveway which include a separate feed/tack room. There is an Atcost general purpose building with external crew yard, which is currently used for cattle. A redundant pole barn to the side of the stables will provide a footprint for a replacement building and a brick hovel which stands alone in the courtyard.

Planning Potential - The vendors have obtained an opinion from a planning consultant that there may be potential, subject to planning permission, for an additional dwelling to be constructed within the Farmhouse garden, as this is located within the neighbourhood settlement boundary.

Secondly, the consultant is also under the impression that the brick barn and stable blocks could have potential for residential purposes. He also felt that a relocation of the current agricultural building would also be supported by the local planning department.

Any conversion would need to be a full planning application supported by a full structural survey and ecological reports.
