4 bedroom detached house

This beautiful stone-built home, tucked away in the picturesque village of Morcott, dates back to 1710–1830. With its unlisted status, it offers the freedom to make it your own while retaining its original features, like exposed wooden beams, stone mullion windows, and high ceilings.

The ground floor is warm and welcoming. The living room and snug, each with a wood-burning stove, are cosy spots to relax. The kitchen is practical and well-laid-out, with a range cooker, plenty of storage, and a pantry to keep things tidy. Double doors from the dining room lead straight into the garden, making it a great space for family meals or entertaining. There’s also a handy utility room and a downstairs WC.

Upstairs, there are four good-sized double bedrooms. The main bedroom feels like a it's own suite, with built-in wardrobes, a storage cupboard, and an en-suite. Bedrooms two and three also have built-in storage, while the attic bedroom is full of character, with a pitched ceiling and a raised bed.

The garden is a peaceful escape, with a lawn, colourful flowerbeds, and spots to sit and enjoy the fresh air. There’s even a built-in BBQ area for outdoor dining. The stone barn attached to the carport has plenty of potential—whether as an annexe, a studio, or even a holiday rental (subject to planning). The carport fits two vehicles, and the gated driveway provides extra parking.

Morcott is a small but lively village with a strong sense of community. The village hall hosts events throughout the year, from jazz nights to book clubs, and there’s a gardening club and a walking club for those who enjoy the outdoors.

While it feels wonderfully rural, Morcott is just a short drive from Stamford, Oakham, and Uppingham, with good transport links to cities like London, Leicester, and Cambridge. The village also sits on a bus route for easy access to surrounding towns and villages. The famous Rutland Water is nearby, and numerous activities can be enjoyed there. There are amenities close by to Morcott on the A47, including two petrol stations with convenience stores for essential groceries. A mobile library, fishmonger and fish & chip van also visit the village on a regular basis.
