5 bedroom character property for sale

Grange Farm, originally built in the late 1800’s, is an ironstone, period farmhouse offering around 5000 ft² of accommodation in need of full restoration, sitting in a well-established plot of approximately 1.5 acres surrounded by the beautiful Leicestershire countryside.

Accommodation - Grange Farm is a substantial, ironstone-built farmhouse offering well-proportioned accommodation extending to 5123 ft² to include five bedrooms and three reception rooms. The property is full of character and has large windows and high ceilings throughout, flooding it with light and creating a wonderful sense of space. Although it is a period property, it is not listed so the opportunity to make it into an incredible country home is eminently possible. Attached to the main house is an ironstone, red-brick and timber coach house that is in significant need of structural work but has huge potential to create additional accommodation.

Outside - The property is set within a well-established garden with an adjacent grass paddock totalling approximately 1.5 acres. The paddock itself has historically been used for and is registered as a Caravan Club campsite complete with electric points.

Planning Permission - There is planning permission on the attached ‘coach house’ part of the building to convert this to a 2-bed property and on the main house to convert that to 3 holiday lets (2 x 3 bed and 1 x 2 bed).
