General Description - Alexanders of Loughborough are delighted to offer to the market this exceptional detached period cottage which enjoys a prime location in the centre of this highly coveted village.
Set back from the road boasting an impressive broad frontage, behind a dry-stone wall, the property is set in slightly elevated mature plot which extends to circa 1/3 acre. This visually appealing home has benefitted from a number of significant improvements including an extension which has been carefully considered to allow the property to flow and provide well-proportioned living accommodation.
Externally, the property is set well back from the road with its own gated driveway providing ample off-road parking in addition to a further pedestrian gated access to the front boundary and a large, detached garage.
The property faces West to the front and East to the rear with the driveway leading to a detached garage. The stunning 'wrap around' gardens have been passionately maintained and developed with an abundance of colour and interest interspersed with tiered seating areas, pathways, lawns, and wild garden with various individual features including brick outhouse, summer house and further covered seating area.
Location - Newtown Linford is a highly desirable Charnwood Forest village well served with local amenities including primary school, shops, popular public houses, and church and is best known for its association with Bradgate Park which was once the home of Lady Jane Grey, Queen of England for only nine days. The park is open to the public and provides extensive scenic walks to local landmarks such as Old John (a hilltop folly) and a riverside walk towards Cropston reservoir. The village is particularly convenient for the M1 at nearby Markfield and fast access to Leicester and Loughborough.
