Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Oakham, LE15 :
In a truly idyllic location surrounded by lovely gardens and bordered by open countryside, Foss Hill is just a few minutes walk from the heart of the village and yet feels entirely private and secluded. The extensive gardens surround the house with varied levels, sheltered areas and lawns, and are stocked with mature trees, shrubs and established fruit trees. The house itself was built in 1975 using local stone and reclaimed materials and internally the principal living areas flow openly from one to another giving the ground floor a relaxed, semi-open plan feel. Throughout the property the many windows flood the rooms with natural light and afford marvellous views of the garden and Rutland countryside beyond. Foss Hill has the added benefit of a separate self-contained two bedroom annexe as well as various outbuildings and, with its well-established gardens and well-planned layout, it makes a welcoming and practical family home with flexible, spacious accommodation in a fantastic location.
