Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Oakham, LE15 :

St Anthonys is an attractive stone-built property retaining wonderful period character and charm, located in the heart of this quiet Rutland village. Originally two cottages, the front of the house dates from the 1800's with an older section at the rear and the house retains an historic character with many period and reclaimed features such as original beams, solid oak sills and latch-handled doors. More recent additions such as window-seats in the deep windows, wood-burning stoves, shutters and solid wood floors have further enhanced the character whilst updating the property to make it a welcoming and practical family home. The house now features elegant reception space, informal family rooms and extensive bedroom accommodation. Outside, the large sheltered courtyard and the secluded west-facing cottage-style garden are surrounded by stone walls and catch the sun throughout the day. With its pretty village location, lovely interior features and spacious accommodation, St Anthonys makes an appealing village home with easy access to Rutland Water.
