23 Hall Close, Oakham, LE15 7HL

Far more than a conventional bungalow, this individual three bedroom home occupies a lovely plot within one of Whissendine’s most distinctive and peaceful cul de sacs, enjoying an outlook towards the village church.

The real feature is the impressive living/dining room, with its high vaulted ceiling, open fireplace, tucked away seating area and conservatory off.

Almost all the accommodation is arranged on one level, although the principal bedroom is reached by a short flight of steps. So, despite buying a bungalow, you still get to go upstairs to bed.

Accommodation: Porch, hallway, kitchen, utility room, living/dining room, conservatory, principal bedroom, two further bedrooms, shower room and family bathroom.

Outside: A gravel driveway leads to the integral garage, which connects through to the utility room at the rear.

The front garden is predominantly laid to lawn, with gated access continuing around the side of the property.

Immediately behind the house is a seating area, with steps leading down beside the property and providing access into the utility room.

The main garden features a circular lawn surrounded by well stocked beds, together with a further secluded seating area at the top.

Hall Close is particularly appealing because every home is individually designed and thoughtfully positioned, creating a quiet setting where the properties do not feel overlooked.

Location: Whissendine is a particularly active Rutland village, surrounded by open countryside and positioned approximately five miles from Oakham and six miles from Melton Mowbray.

At the heart of the village is a thriving shop and Post Office selling local produce, artisan bread and flour from Whissendine’s working windmill.

The White Lion is a popular village pub known for its food, real ales and attractive gardens alongside the brook.

Whissendine Church of England Primary School is recognised for its arts and sporting achievements, while the village hall and sports and community club host a wide range of activities.

Facilities include football and cricket pitches, tennis courts, bowls and pétanque.

Ferneley’s Dairy Barn Café is also close by, offering homemade ice cream, a café, outdoor play areas and adventure golf.

St Andrew’s Church and the working windmill are two of the area’s best known landmarks, while a choice of countryside walks can be enjoyed almost from the doorstep.
