Description

Country & Equestrian listing marketed in Partnership with - a prestigious network of handpicked independent estate agents with a reputation for excellence in the UK’s most desirable locations. This partnership enhances our reach and ensures our properties are promoted to the widest and most relevant audience.

Being set back from the attractive main street of this Rutland Water village and enjoying open aspects across adjoining paddock land to the rear (which may be available to rent), this substantial cottage barn conversion has been lovingly created into spectacular accommodation by the former farming family, who are now looking to move but remain within the village.

With an impressive entrance hall, open-to-the-eaves living kitchen with dining area and a sunroom off, the flexible accommodation also includes a substantial reception room, further dining room, utility and ground floor cloakroom, with the layout offering potential for additional reception space or ground floor bedrooms if required. The property is arranged around a private courtyard setting, with a large barn converted into garaging and storage.

There are three bedrooms on the ground floor, served by a family bathroom. To the first floor is a particularly impressive principal suite, featuring a full bath and separate shower en-suite, all accessed via its own staircase

The grounds have been thoughtfully landscaped with lawned areas, walkways and kitchen gardens, complemented by a greenhouse and garden shed.

Empingham is one of Rutland’s most sought-after villages, positioned on the edge of Rutland Water and offering a strong sense of community with amenities including a village shop and a primary school. The area is particularly popular for its access to walking, cycling and sailing around Rutland Water, along with excellent schooling in both the state and private sectors nearby. The village is ideally positioned for Stamford and Oakham, with easy access just outside the village to the A1 and mainline trains to London from Peterborough in under an hour.
