A versatile home within mature south facing gardens, with extensive parking and garaging in a popular village between Stamford and Oakham, less than a mile's walk to Rutland Water.
Description
This attractive detached home, with 1950s origins, is set back within lovely and mature south facing gardens, which extend to 0.44 of an acre, whilst its accommodation, from which the principal rooms face south, is bright and uplifting.
This orientation and feel, coupled with solar panels, with feed-in tariff that help mitigate utility bills, is part of the reason that this is the first time that the house has been offered to the market in the past 26 years.
Accommodation: The front door opens into a wide and inviting herringbone parquet floored entrance hallway, which leads to the living room and kitchen, passing a cloakroom/wc.
The herringbone flooring continues in the spacious, triple aspect living room, which includes an adjoining study which was a separate room originally. With wonderful symmetry, the herringbone flooring, an open ‘Jetmaster’ open fireplace and windows to three sides, the living room is a lovely family space, with an office/play room area and patio doors that open to a 15’, triple aspect garden room, with attractive verdant views of, and doors to, the gardens.
From the hallway, the large and modern kitchen/breakfast room has a fitted wall and base units beneath granite worktops and incorporates integral double oven, induction hob, microwave and dishwasher, with a central granite topped island with breakfast bar seating. An inner lobby leads to a utility and to the integral garages.
The atrium lit dining room, alongside the kitchen, has French doors to the garden and internal doors to the kitchen, the study/living room and the principal bedroom, with a modern full en suite bathroom, with separate shower cubicle.
The staircase rises from the entrance hallway to a first floor landing that accesses three further bedrooms and the family bathroom. Bedroom 2 is a particularly generous double, with built-in wardrobe and en suite shower room.
Outside: The gardens wrap around the house and are beautifully presented with landscaped lawns, deep flowering borders and mixed deciduous trees.
To the north, The drive entrance approaches the house though a tall hedgerow boundary, and offers extensive gravelled parking along the entire frontage of the house, with access to the integral double garaging. The gardens wrap around the house to the south, where they include formal and informal areas, with terraces for entertaining and tracking the sun. The gardens connect well to the house with access to the hallway, utility, garden and dining rooms.
The grounds extend to about 0.44 acres in total.
Location
The Conservation Village of Empingham is highly desirable and lies just a mile's walk from Rutland Water's beach and headwall.
The village is well placed, therefore, to take advantage of its wonderful choice of recreational opportunities, including watersports, walking, cycling and nature trails, amongst others.
Empingham caters for most daily village amenities. There is a village shop, a public house, The White Horse, a medical centre and primary school.
The village is also 5 miles equidistant between the bustling market towns of Oakham and Stamford, both of which offer a variety of facilities, as well as a number of excellent schools, including the independent Stamford Endowed Schools and Oakham School. Uppingham, with its school and independent shops, is little further, 9 miles from the village.
Rutland is well connected by road, with the A1 Stamford bypass four miles to the east, with mainline rail services to London Kings Cross from 46 mins from Peterborough (18 miles), or from Stamford Station to Cambridge and London Stansted Airport, from an hour.
