Description
Country & Equestrian listing marketed in Partnership with Finest.co.uk - a prestigious network of handpicked independent estate agents with a reputation for excellence in the UK’s most desirable locations.

Rurally set whilst having easy access back to amenities in the adjoining village of Buckminster and access to the A1, Horseshoe House offers a great opportunity for multiple generation living, or to be used as one large 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom home.
Horseshoe House takes its name from its former use as a pub, offering a wonderful sense of history and character. Behind the property sits the original smithy, which still remains complete with the forge and well, adding to the charm and heritage of this unique country home.
Being set within its own grounds of approximately 2 acres, with mature well-tended planting and a range of outbuildings to include brick-built stabling, workshop and triple garage, the property offers excellent flexibility. There is also a walled private south-facing sun garden with conservatory serving the cottage.
The main farmhouse benefits from a large farmhouse kitchen with AGA, creating the perfect heart of the home. A really good move to the country opportunity, with the chance to move and have space for other family members to visit or live under one roof.
With mainline trains from Grantham to London in under an hour and approximately 20 minutes from your doorstep, this home offers a superb move to the country opportunity. Sproxton is a desirable village set within attractive rolling countryside on the Leicestershire, Rutland and Lincolnshire borders. It offers a peaceful rural setting whilst remaining convenient for Melton Mowbray, Grantham and Oakham, with easy access to the A1.
