A beautifully appointed, recently (2024) constructed home with a period brick under tile appearance in the heart of this Rutland Conservation Village, just a mile's walk from Rutland Water.

Description This energy efficient new home combines a light and airy feel, with a versatile layout designed to suit families and professional couples, or retirees, alike.

It benefits from air-source under-floor heating, air conditioning, highly efficient double glazed windows and doors and bespoke kitchen, bath and shower room suites.

The front door opens within a wide oak porch to an entrance lobby with double doors that open in turn to a wide, smart floored entrance hallway.

The hallway accesses the kitchen and two formal reception rooms.

The first reception room, ideal as a dining room, children’s play room or family snug, shares the same flooring as the hallway and is dual aspect.

The second, the sitting room, is also dual aspect, but with French doors that open to the garden and with a contemporary wood burning stove.

A spacious, light, bright and sociable open plan dining kitchen is the heart to this home, fitted with a fabulous suite, with wall and base units beneath marble worktops.

Integrated appliances include a built-in microwave, electric oven and hob.

A large marble topped island takes centre stage, with a breakfast bar and integrated dishwasher and wine fridge, whilst bi-folding doors open from the dining area to the garden.

The kitchen also accesses a utility, with garden access, a cloakroom/WC and a home office/TV room.

A contemporary oak and glass staircase rises from the hall the first floor, where there are four double four, including an en suite guest bedroom, and a well-appointed full-suite family bathroom, with both bath and separate shower.

The principal bedroom is at second floor and occupies the entire floor, comprising a large bedroom and a sumptuous full-suite en suite, incorporating a freestanding clawfoot bath and a large walk-in shower.

Velux rooflights, with electronically operated blinds, frame far reaching village rooftop views. All five of the double bedrooms are air conditioned.

Outside - A lawned forecourt front garden is framed by laurel hedging and attractive wrought iron parkland boundary fencing, with pathways either side of the house that lead to the lawned rear garden, where a wide terrace adjoins the full width of the house.

The terrace is ideal for al fresco dining.

A gravelled driveway to the side of the house, initially shared with one other house, leads to this property’s detached double carport, with EV-charging points.

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.
