Baggrave End, Barsby, LE7 4RB

A rare opportunity to acquire a truly special 16th-century home, rich in history and character, yet thoughtfully updated for modern living.

Dating back over 400 years and notably unlisted, the property has been lovingly cared for by the current owners since 2001, who have enhanced its comforts while carefully preserving its heritage.

The ground floor is full of warmth and personality, showcasing exposed beams, original brickwork and a beautiful brick archway linking the dining room and lounge.

Both reception rooms centre around exposed brick fireplaces with inset log burners, creating cosy, welcoming spaces ideal for everyday living and entertaining.

The kitchen balances period charm with practical modern touches and is supported by a utility room and WC, while the conservatory offers a versatile additional space, perfect as a home office or garden room.

Upstairs, five generously sized bedrooms continue the theme of character and individuality, served by a stylish, contemporary family bathroom finished to a high standard.

Outside, the landscaped garden provides a private and peaceful escape, arranged over two tiers with dedicated seating and entertaining areas.

A brick-built outdoor oven adds a unique focal point, ideal for relaxed alfresco dining.

The thatched roof has been meticulously maintained, with new ridges installed just 18 months ago, reflecting the ongoing care invested in the home.

Positioned on a quiet no-through road within a welcoming village setting, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of community alongside excellent connectivity.

Rail links are available via Melton Mowbray and Syston, while Market Harborough provides direct services to London.

Families are well served by a highly regarded local school in Gaddesby, and neighbouring villages such as Ashby Folville and Twyford are known for their popular country pubs and village charm.

Location Barsby is a particularly unspoilt village situated between Melton Mowbray and Leicester and therefore convenient for fast commuting to both.

The surrounding villages of Ashby Folville, South Croxton, Gaddesby and Queniborough all offer a good range of local facilities.
