General - 'The Croft' is a traditional dormer bungalow in an idyllic setting, including approximately 1.7 acres of gardens and paddock land. The property is set in beautifully landscaped gardens with exceptional Southerly views over the adjoining paddocks. The accommodation briefly includes a magnificent sitting room that opens directly into the dining room, a breakfast kitchen and conservatory. On the ground floor there are also two double bedrooms one of which has an en suite. On the first floor there are two further bedrooms (one of which could be a dressing room).
Although the bungalow has been well loved and looked after, it does now require some modernisation. There is potential, subject to the usual consents, to extend and further develop the bungalow and indeed the owner has prepared plans for an additional dwelling which are available to any purchaser. It should also be noted that the adjoining property known as 'Leascroft' is available for purchase and the two properties would combine well for multi generational family living.
Location - The property is located in the highly regarded village of Orton on the Hill on the Leicestershire/Warwickshire borders, surrounded by open countryside and has good access to the main Midlands motorway network via the A5/A444 and Junction 11 of the M42.
