Nestled in the sought-after village of Wilbarston, this delightful Grade II listed Detached home has been cherished by the same family since the 1960s. Now ready for its next chapter, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity for its new owners to make it their own.
Steeped in character, the home showcases a wealth of original features such as log burner and window seats, seamlessly blending period charm with modern comfort. With double-glazed windows and tasteful décor throughout, it is ready to move into while still offering scope for personalisation.
As you step inside, a characterful hallway welcomes you, leading to two inviting reception rooms. At the heart of the home is a beautifully hand-crafted solid wood kitchen/diner, a perfect space for entertaining. Towards the rear, a spacious utility room and bathroom provide additional convenience.
Upstairs, the property offers three generously sized double bedrooms, with the master bedroom benefiting from dual-aspect windows overlooking both the front and rear gardens. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the first floor, featuring a freestanding bath and ample storage.
Beyond the main house, the property boasts an impressive selection of additional spaces. A self-contained annexe with its own en-suite provides an ideal option for guests or multi-generational living. A large workshop, complete with extra storage in the roof, adds further versatility. There is also a spacious outbuilding with access to water, electricity, and gas, as well as another outbuilding that was previously used as a personal dwelling for over 30 years. Importantly, none of these buildings are Grade II listed, offering exciting potential for future development.
The beautifully landscaped gardens are a true highlight, divided into two distinct areas by a charming stone wall. One side features a well-established vegetable garden with mature fruit trees and bushes, while the other provides a generous outdoor space complete with a free-standing swimming pool, perfect for enjoying warm summer days. All necessary equipment and chemicals for the pool will remain with the property for ease of maintenance.
Wilbarston is a picturesque village set within the Welland Valley, offering a strong sense of community and an excellent range of local amenities. The vibrant village hall hosts a variety of events, from international cuisine nights to family-friendly activities. The village is also home to an OFSTED-rated outstanding primary school, a welcoming local pub, and convenient shops. Ideally located, Wilbarston is just five miles from Market Harborough via the A427, providing excellent transport links and access to further amenities.

Guide Price
An indication of the seller’s current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case, that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction
Reserve
The sellers minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction
