Property details

A substantial six bedroomed detached former farmhouse in need of complete modernisation and refurbishment, occupying a rural setting enjoying stunning views over south Leicestershire countryside.

Dating back to circa 1900, the property is approached via a long shared driveway, and includes three reception rooms, kitchen, larder, pantry and wet shower room, whilst on the upper floor are six bedrooms approached via two staircases, together with a study, store and family bathroom.

Outside, there are gardens on three sides, together with a derelict brick farm outbuilding.



LOCATION



Knaptoft Lodge Farm occupies a rural setting adjacent to a range of derelict outbuildings, approached via a long shared driveway off Welford Road (A5199), some 11 miles south of Leicester and just over 8 miles west of the thriving town of Market Harborough. For the commuter, both Rugby and Market Harborough have mainline rail services to London, with the M1 accessible at Junction 20 in Lutterworth, with the A14 lying to the south. Market Harborough has an excellent range of local shops and supermarkets, as does Lutterworth, with village shops in nearby Gilmorton, Husbands Bosworth and North Kilworth.
