3 bedroom detached house

DESIGN YOUR DREAM HOME

Formerly part of the local farming estate, Foxfields is nestled along the quiet, sought-after Priory Road. Pull through the gated entrance and along the sweeping driveway where there is abundant parking before a double garage. Ripe for redecoration and remodelling, make your way into the home's entrance hallway through the sheltered portico and inner porch. Overhead the double height ceiling and tall window offer a light and airy welcome. Freshen up in the cloakroom before crossing the hallway to discover the dining room overlooking the front through French doors which open to a sunny terrace. To one side discover a peaceful study area. Double doors connect to the generously sized sitting room with garden views. A gas fire invites warmth whilst tucked off here is a large, sunny conservatory with access out to the garden.

SUBLIME VIEWS

Discover the kitchen and capture a glimpse of the shores. Offering built-in cabinetry, garden views, a pantry and access to the laundry room, which itself leads to a reception and garage. Consider the scope to reconfigure and reimagine this space as the kitchen of your dreams. Returning to the entrance hallway ascend the stairs to the large, galleried first floor landing, where three bedrooms await, alongside a shower room. Two bedrooms enjoy enviable views over Rutland Water, while the third affords views of the garden. The principal bedroom is a spacious suite brimming with potential, offering incredible views over Rutland Water alongside a dressing area and en suite bathroom.

GLORIOUS GARDENS

A large lawn precedes breathtaking views out over Rutland Water, with sunny patios on which to rest and recline. Even in inclement weather, enjoy the peace and shelter of the summerhouse to soak up views over the glistening ripples of the water. A terrace to the front simmers in the morning sun. With spacious wraparound gardens there is plenty of space to extend.

ON YOUR DOORSTEP

Discover the delights on your doorstep at Foxfields. Follow the public footpath through the field to the rear and enjoy walks to the shore of Rutland Water. Nestled on the southwest corner of Rutland Water, the peaceful village of Manton is home to St Mary's, a fourteenth century church. Enjoy a refreshing thirst quencher in local watering hole The Horse and Jockey. Crisscrossed with footpaths and cycle routes, there is plenty to explore close by, and birdwatching and watersports to be enjoyed on the shores of Rutland Water. Head east to Lynton Nature Reserve, or north to Egleton Nature Reserve. Families are well served by several state and independent schools in the surrounding villages and towns, including Edith Weston Academy and Uppingham C of E Primary School alongside the independent Oakham, Uppingham and Brooke Priory Schools. Sports clubs are well represented in both Uppingham and Rutland, with golf clubs, cricket clubs and more within easy reach.
