General Description - Alexanders of Melton Mowbray are delighted to offer to the market Pippin Cottage, a beautifully refurbished cottage that at one time in the early 1900's operated as the village shop.
The cottage was one of three properties renovated by a well-reputed builder around 20 years ago and has been in the same ownership ever since. The property is situated in the heart of Hose, a beautiful East Leicestershire village with a fantastic community feel and a local country pub.
The property is set back and elevated from a quiet lane, with walled front gardens and a pathway to the front door.
Location - Hose is a quintessentially English village settlement positioned in the Vale of Belvoir, 6 miles from the market town of Melton Mowbray. Within easy reach is the market town of Grantham (rail access to London in 1 hour) and the bustling city of Nottingham. Access to Loughborough and Leicester is also within easy reach.
The village has a regular bus service, public house, village hall, and associated playing fields. There is a real community feel and a lovely mix of housing stock. The village has excellent school catchments and there is a range of good private schooling options locally including Ratcliffe College.
Accommodation - The accommodation is laid across two floors and serviced with mains gas central heating and double glazing throughout. There is a floor area of circa 916 square feet providing characterful and well-proportioned living space.
The accommodation includes three bedrooms, a shower room, and a separate family bathroom. On the ground floor, there are three super living spaces, namely a formal sitting room with a feature fireplace and working wood-burning stove, a large fully fitted shaker style kitchen/diner, and a garden room.
The Outside - To the rear, the property offers two private garden spaces enjoying a sunny aspect and landscaped in a low-maintenance fashion with Indian flagstone flooring. The main courtyard is directly to the rear of the property, with a gate and steps down to a second courtyard used by our current vendors as a barbeque area. This also provides convenient access to the private, block paved driveway providing off-road parking.
Tenure - Freehold.
Local Authority - Melton Borough Council, Parkside, Station Approach, Burton Street, Melton Mowbray, Leics, LE13 1GH ([use Contact Agent Button]). Council Tax Band C.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
