Description

Set within the heart of the sought-after South Leicestershire village of Smeeton Westerby, offering no onward chain, this deceptively spacious period cottage is full of original character, dating back to 1902. With a blend of character and practicality in a highly desirable village location, offering multiple reception rooms, a modern kitchen, two bedrooms, a bathroom, and two large cellar rooms. Additionally, there is a private yard and separate garden of good size.

The cottage itself is well presented and benefits from gas-fired central heating together with UPVC double glazing. The ground floor features a living room to the front, complete with a feature fireplace with gas fire and exposed wooden flooring. An opening leads through to the dining room which again retains its period charm with a feature fireplace, cast iron set within an exposed brick chimney breast, alongside a exposed wood flooring too and stairs rising to the first floor. A door provides access to the two cellar rooms. The kitchen is fitted with a range of base and wall units topped with wooden worktop surfaces, an inset sink, a gas hob with an extractor hood above, an electric oven, and an integrated fridge/freezer. A rear door leads out to the rear year and garden.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts two bedrooms. The main bedroom features a recessed shower cubicle and a heated towel rail, while the second bedroom includes built-in double wardrobes and an airing cupboard. The bathroom is well-appointed with a bath and shower over, a wash hand basin, a low flush WC. From the rear there are incredible far reaching views over rolling countryside.

Externally, the property enjoys an enclosed rear courtyard with a brick-built store that has plumbing for a washing machine. A gated pathway leads to a separate private garden, which is mainly laid to lawn and complemented by mature shrubs.

Nestled amidst some of Leicestershire’s finest rolling countryside, Smeeton Westerby is a charming village with a welcoming community. It benefits from a traditional public house and a church, while the nearby village of Kibworth Beauchamp offers a range of amenities, including schools, healthcare facilities, a library, a post office, and a variety of shops.
