Recently refurbished character stone single-storey barn conversion offering attractive and well-proportioned accommodation, extending to approximately 1,475 sq ft including the garage. The property offers a superb blend of period character and modern convenience, with exposed beams, a well-appointed breakfast kitchen, three bedrooms, a dressing room and two bath/shower room facilities. The spacious reception/dining room forms the heart of the home, featuring exposed ceiling timbers, a character fireplace and French doors opening onto the enclosed, dog-proof gardens, creating an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining.

In addition to the enclosed gardens, the property enjoys a further substantial area of paddock land. There are also caravan and electric car charging points together with a stone-built garage. The grounds are a particular feature, being mainly laid to lawn and bordered by established trees and planting, creating an excellent degree of privacy and a wonderful setting for both families and those with pets.

The property is ideally situated just off the A1, providing excellent access to Stamford and its mainline rail services into London, whilst also being conveniently positioned for the renowned George Hotel. Despite its accessibility, the home is tucked away just back from the village main street, close to the White Horse public house, recently reopened under new management. The popular market town of Oakham is also within easy reach, offering a wide range of amenities, schooling, leisure facilities and rail links.
