Property description & features

Wards Residential present an exceptional opportunity to acquire The Old Rectory, an 1849 built Grade II listed country home built in a Tudor style, located in the heart of the historic and well-regarded market town of Market Bosworth. The property is set in grounds of approximately 1.6 acres (0.65 hectares), with the imposing frontage of red brick with stone dressings set behind a circular driveway, accessed via a gated entrance from Rectory Lane. The charming rear gardens offer sweeping views over the surrounding countryside toward the nearby Bosworth Battlefield.

The Old Rectory itself offers almost 7,500 sq ft of outstanding accommodation and has been sympathetically extended to provide superb leisure facilities in addition to the extensive living accommodation. There is a wealth of period features, none less than in the imposing Hall, with its moulded plaster arch and impressive large open well moulded string staircase, with twisted balusters and panelled newels with ogee finials and pendants. Much of the original joinery within the property survives, including panelled doors, along with several fabulous marble chimneypieces.

The living accommodation itself is set around two ranges, with the symmetrical three bay, centre gabled main range to the eastern elevation comprising a Hall, Study, Drawing Room, Dining Room and Kitchen to the ground floor, with three Bedrooms, Family Bathroom and Master with Ensuite and Dressing Room to the first floor. The main range has two striking Oriel windows at first floor level to both front and rear elevations.

The former service wing, located to the western elevation, is similarly centre gabled and has been sympathetically repurposed to provide a Games Room (complete with fitted bar area), Office, Utility Room and Cloakroom to the ground floor. To the first floor there is a one-bedroom Annex comprising a Living Room, Kitchen, Bedroom and Bathroom.

The modern Leisure Wing, which comprises an opulent Swimming Pool area (with superb tiled swimming pool and separate freestanding hot tub, set under a magnificent moulded plaster ceiling), Changing Room, Sauna and separate WC. Additionally, within this wing there is a Garage with double doors to the front elevation, Plant Room and further WC.

The property is offered for sale for the first time in over 30 years with no onward chain.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    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
