Proposed without onward chain
Located behind stone walls and private gates in the heart of Uppingham, the Old Workshop was originally built in 1895 as part of Uppingham School’s facilities. Converted to residential use in 1994, it underwent a full modernization in 2004, with oak floors and sympathetic upgrades throughout. The result is a well-balanced property with practical living space, architectural interest, and a layout offering flexibility and comfort, all within a conservation area. The front door makes a memorable first impression, framed by a broken-arched stone surround and ironwork. It opens into a wide entrance hall, from which the house flows naturally to its principal reception rooms. The adjacent L-shaped dining room and sitting room form the heart of the house. Both benefit from double-height ceilings with a gallery above and large sash-style windows that bring in an impressive amount of natural light. Exposed beams add warmth and structure, while visible steel posts on the upper level provide a distinctive industrial detail that pairs perfectly with the building’s original fabric. The cosy sitting area provides a relaxed corner for everyday use while remaining integrated into the open-plan layout. The kitchen is accessible from the dining room and includes an Aga (available by separate negotiation), ample cabinetry and a practical utility area with laundry and additional storage. A small breakfast table suits more relaxed days, and a door opens directly onto the garden, linking indoors to the multi-level outdoor space. Upstairs, three bedrooms are arranged along the gallery landing. The principal suite features built-in wardrobes and a large en-suite shower room with a generous Grohe rainfall shower. A second double bedroom also offers integrated storage and exposed beams. The third bedroom, currently used as an office, is well-proportioned and versatile, with an internal courtyard-style window that offers a special connection to the reception below. Also on this level is a family bathroom with bath, basin and WC, plus an additional separate shower. A deep linen cupboard completes the arrangement on the upper floor. Externally, the compact, enclosed garden is bounded by brick walls and serves more as a private courtyard than a traditional garden – a quiet external extension of the home, with a west-facing orientation that brings in sun from noon to evening. The property also includes a garage and two off-street parking spaces, accessible via a pair of large wooden electric gates from the road. These gates also provide a secondary access point to the garden. Under the main house there is a large garage and generous storage space, as well as an adjoining room that is fully insulated and equipped with multiple power sockets. This versatile space is ideal as an office, studio or guest accommodation. The combination of spaces on this level allows for an autonomous annex/holiday let with kitchen and bathroom, subject to planning consent. With access from both the secure parking and directly from the street, this space lends itself well to family use, supported living, or a separate workspace. Although the house is close to the town centre, it retains a sense of privacy. The churchyard is across the road, offering green and unobstructed views, quiet neighbours, and the assurance of no planned development.

The kitchen itself has been carefully equipped with underfloor heating, bespoke cabinetry and an outstanding specification, including a Bosch induction hob, Elica extractor, two Bosch ovens, a built-in microwave, a fridge and freezer, space for laundry appliances, and a Quooker hot water tap. Two sinks and abundant storage make it a highly functional yet striking space – a true hub for daily life, entertaining and special occasions. Upstairs, the generous landing is lit by a large skylight, framing views of the garden and flooding daylight to the upper floor. Four bedrooms offer beautifully proportioned private spaces for rest and relaxation. The master bedroom, located to the front, is a serene double-aspect room with garden views and space for wardrobes and seating. The second bedroom is equally spacious, also double-aspect, with built-in storage and lovely light. A third double bedroom overlooks the rear garden, while the fourth bedroom has dual-aspect windows and flexibility to serve as a baby room, lodge, or home office. The family bathroom has been thoughtfully modernised with a four-piece suite, including bath, basin, WC and bidet, and is completed by a separate shower, providing added comfort for a growing family. Outside, the wrap-around garden is a real delight – landscaped with lawns, planted borders and gravel seating areas that catch the sun all day. Other highlights include a large partially boarded loft with potential to convert (subject to necessary permissions), gas central heating, and further scope for customization, creating a durable home tailored to evolving needs. Stoneygate remains one of Leicester’s most sought-after districts, with tree-lined avenues, shops, excellent schools and green, leafy spaces. Garth sits on one of its most coveted plots – peaceful, private and beautifully located, just moments from the life and charm of this historic area.

Enjoying a rural setting with distant views over the countryside, this rare house, requiring full renovation, is ideal for multi-generation living or for those who want to work from home. Access is via electric gates; a long wide driveway leads to a courtyard and a range of outbuildings including a double garage. The school itself has a spacious, light-filled feel with a well-equipped kitchen, a utility/mudroom, a boot room, three reception rooms, three bedrooms and a bathroom. The Old School has hardly changed since it was built in 1881. Three of the original schoolrooms, all with high vaulted ceilings, are adjoined by an office, a utility room and a shower room. The mature gardens surrounding the house enjoy complete privacy and are a particular feature of this rare property. Available chain-free, early viewing is highly recommended. History The school bears the Packe family crest in a stone cartouche on the gable, bearing witness to its distinguished heritage. It replaced an earlier school dating from 1840, which itself was relocated from the churchyard and founded originally in 1657. Enlarged in 1882, the property became a council school serving Burton on the Wolds and Walton on the Wolds, accommodating around 128 pupils by the late 19th century. The school was eventually replaced by a newer facility in Burton and has since been deliberately converted to residential use. Location The village of Burton on the Wolds is a small rural village in north Leicestershire. It offers many idyllic countryside walks, a traditional pub called The Greyhound, a service station with a convenience store, a good primary school and nursery, and a weekly farmers’ market. The village is particularly well situated for local amenities and intensive schooling to Loughborough & Ratcliffe. It is also ideally placed for travel to Leicester, Melton Mowbray and Nottingham, with the A46 providing northbound access and the M1 via the north-west Leicester bypass. A direct rail service to St Pancras in London is available via Loughborough, East Midlands Parkway and Leicester. East Midlands Airport is also easily accessible. Distances: Nottingham 12 miles / Leicester 14.8 miles / Derby 21.2 miles / Loughborough 5 miles / Melton Mowbray 12.1 miles / East Midlands Airport 10.6 miles / East Midlands Parkway 9.2 miles / A46 4.4 miles / M1 (J23) 7.8 miles The School – Ground Floor The school opens to a welcoming entrance hall and a warm corridor, which leads easily to the dining room and a living room with a wood-burning stove. A bright garden provides a pleasant connection to the outdoors, opening directly onto a sun-drenched terrace and the rear garden. The kitchen benefits from a adjoining utility/boot room and a home office, both enjoying views of the garden. The School – First Floor The school comprises three bedrooms with a family bathroom. Two bedrooms have original open fireplaces. The Old School The Old School itself comprises three classrooms on the ground floor, an office and a service room, which leads to a separate building housing two other storage rooms. This unique property offers a blend of heritage charm, flexible living space and development potential. Outside The property sits on a substantial total plot of 0.93 acres, occupying a semi-rural, enviable position with far-reaching views over open countryside. Access is private and versatile, with two distinct entry points including an electric security gate and a large central door situated between The Old School House and School House. At the rear of The Old School is a charming courtyard, formerly a play area, now providing extensive parking for several vehicles and access to a double garage, a store room and an additional outbuilding, ideal for a variety of uses. The garden to the rear of the school is mainly laid to lawn and complemented by mature plantings, a delightful orchard and a pond, regularly visited by ducks, creating a peaceful outdoor space. Services: mains water, drainage and electricity connected. Gas is available but not currently connected. Freehold with Charnwood Borough Council.

A prestigious family home Approaching this charming detached house built on the edge of an elevated estate of prestigious properties, the first impression is one of quality. Located on the outskirts of the village of Kirby Muxloe in western Leicestershire, it benefits from proportions of over 2,500 square feet and a ten-year construction warranty. With a Tudor-inspired mock façade, white render and a red brick fireplace, it presents features of a traditional English home, but its recent build has adopted contemporary specifications and it is rated B for energy efficiency. Formerly the show home, the current owner is the original owner and has been able to source interior decor items to preserve its character. This would offer a ready-to-move-in purchase for those seeking a large, modern, central, chain-free home within walking distance of open countryside. First impressions It presents an open frontage, with a side of metal railings, plant borders and lawn areas. A wide driveway runs to the front and provides easy access to a double garage. The garage is located at the rear and side of the property, allowing two vehicles to be parked side by side. This building formerly housed the site office during construction and benefits from decorative finishes, insulation and additional electrical and data points. It is equipped with an electric vehicle charger and, on the side, a path leads to the rear of the house as well as a private landscaped garden. Spacious interior The property meets all the expectations of a spacious contemporary family home with a ground-floor arrangement comprising a central hall, a generous kitchen-dining area, a utility room and separate cloakroom, a study or office, two reception rooms and a double garage. Upstairs, on the first floor, there are five bedrooms – two with en-suite bathrooms – and a family bathroom. With white-panel PVC window frames, security lighting and an alarm system, this property has been maintained to a high standard and remains, to a large extent, a show home today. The visit A red-tiled open portico above the partially glazed entrance, with a pair of parallel opaque glass panels on each side and a black composite front door, completes the entrance. Once inside, a large airy hall forms the central focal point of the home and pairs of double doors open onto the reception rooms and the kitchen. The hall is floored with hard flooring, white vertical-paneled doors with brushed steel handles and light switches. There are two pendants. A particularly attractive feature of this space is the white balustrade stairwell with duckbill newel posts and a partially gallery landing above. It has not been enclosed and adds to the striking sense of space from the outset. The neutral color palette on the walls and floors has been chosen to reflect light and create a contemporary ambiance, with clean, crisp lines and understated elegance: attention to detail is evident, and these themes will resonate throughout the property. The reception rooms The first room on the left is the home office or study overlooking the front and features a fitted desk, shelves and cupboards. Just next door and through double doors is the carpeted lounge. This large room has windows offering a dual aspect and bi-fold doors opening to the rear garden. Like the dining room, it has windows fitted with casement fasteners and blinds. The dining room is also carpeted and benefits from a dual aspect: to the driveway and to the front. This room sits adjacent to a cloakroom. If a ground-floor accommodation were required, it could easily be used as a sixth bedroom. Whatever its use, this room offers versatility and the possibility for new owners with different needs to explore alternative options. A superior family space We now admire the kitchen at a superb stage. It features a central island with breakfast bar stools for informal meals. White base and wall units inspired by a Shaker style sit on two walls, contrasting with speckled grey countertops, in a coordinated neutral color scheme. The kitchen is equipped with contemporary flush ceiling lighting, integrated appliances including a Smeg induction hob with extractor hood, double electric oven, fridge, freezer and dishwasher. The room has a lovely bay window and a French door. This allows natural light to flood the space and the current owners have enjoyed the view of the garden by creating a comfortable seating area and a dining space. It is a very relaxed living area that allows watching young children while they play outside and provides an excellent option for entertaining on a larger scale by integrating the garden. The utility room, similarly fitted, has units and a sink along one wall. It provides additional storage, plumbing for laundry appliances and a side access from the driveway, offering a practical space to store coats and shoes without entering the main house. A principal suite with adjoining bedrooms Aside from the ground-floor bathrooms, matching carpet has been used throughout, and all bedrooms have built-in storage. From the large landing which has a window looking onto the front door, there are two large bedrooms with en-suites on the right and three others – with a family bathroom – on the left. At the front of the house, the large master bedroom has its own dressing area and a separate en-suite bathroom, with separate bath and shower. The guest bedroom overlooks the rear of the property and is also equipped with an en-suite and wardrobes. Bedrooms three and four are also doubles and one features hand-painted walls depicting clouds floating in the sky. The family bathroom has a separate shower, bath, toilet and sink. This property has four bathroom facilities – cloakroom, en-suites and a family bathroom – equipped to high specifications with hard flooring, contemporary heated towel rails and white sanitaryware. The Italianate showers are tiled from floor to ceiling. Landscape and private The landscaped garden includes two separate seating areas to enjoy the good weather, enclosed by a wall and fencing, with mixed planting beds and a central lawn. It is a private, secluded retreat. Kirby Muxloe LE9 Kirby Muxloe is a large village located in the center of England, in the East Midlands region. It is about four miles west of Leicester city centre and about six miles south of Narborough. Its proximity to the city places it within the Leicester urban area. Nearby villages include Desford to the west, Glenfield to the northeast, Enderby to the south and Earl Shilton to the southwest. It has the 0116 dialing code, lies in the LE9 postal district and is part of the Blaby civil parish within the Charnwood parliamentary constituency. The village is well placed for commuters, with the A47 serving as the village’s main link to Leicester and the M1 (junction 21A, west toward Leicester Forest East). The A447 connects Hinckley and the M69 to Nuneaton. The M42 is to the south, toward Tamworth. There are nearby railway stations at Hinckley, Narborough and Leicester, where the Midland Main Line provides regular trains to London – St Pancras. There are typically around 70 trains a day to London, the fastest taking about an hour. The village is also well served by local bus companies providing regular services to the town and beyond from St Margaret’s centre. The major towns offer a range of amenities such as out-of-town supermarkets or bespoke shops, restaurants, gyms, pubs, cafes and parks. For an even greater variety of entertainment, including theatres, the cosmopolitan city of Leicester, with its diverse cultural influences, makes Kirby Muxloe ideally located. The original settlement, now recognised as the Kirby Muxloe area, has carried various names over the centuries. Kirby is linked to the Danish name Caeri and was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Carbi, meaning “the settlement of Caeri.” In 1480, during the Wars of the Roses, Lord William Hastings initiated the construction of Kirby Muxloe Castle surrounded by moats. This castle is a regional landmark and is today under the care of English Heritage and a popular tourist attraction. There are two churches in the village. The parish church is St. Bartholomew, dating from before the 14th century, as well as the free church. The latter building was demolished during a WWII bombing and had to be rebuilt. Today, the village is a dynamic community with a variety of shops, restaurants, cafes and local businesses offering services. The pharmacy provides a prescription service for the nearby medical practice and hosts several clinics. A number of dentists are also on hand. The local village website is rich in local information, including details of locally organized groups, sporting facilities and social events run by the parish council. Regular meetings take place in the village hall to promote residents’ interests and the site notes “the village policeman accessible and the community support officer who monitor our village while liaising with residents to ensure a safe and secure environment for all.” In the locality, many schools offer educational provision for all ages including Kirby Muxloe Primary on Barwell Road, secondary (Brookvale Groby Learning Campus), including private establishments (Dixie Grammar and Market Bosworth) offering adjacent facilities. The Department for Education – OFSTED – is sought after to provide a thorough review of practice standards currently evaluated Additional information: EPC - B Council Tax Band - G Local Authority - Blaby District High-speed broadband - 900Mb Warning: Important information: Property details: While we strive to ensure the accuracy of property details, we have not tested any services, equipment or facilities.

Hagbeach Manor is a house that blends Georgian architectural elegance with a remarkable sense of calm and seclusion. Grade II listed and set on about 1.75 acres on the edge of Whaplode, the property is surrounded by mature gardens, open moorland skies, and carefully designed plantings that have evolved over the years into something truly special. Next to the main house is a substantial former car shed with additional accommodation, while the grounds themselves have become an intrinsic part of the property’s identity, shaped with extraordinary care and imagination. The current owners were drawn not only to the house itself but also to how it sits in its landscape. Unlike many formal Georgian houses that face the road directly, Hagbeach Manor is side-on, facing south, through its gardens and the open space beyond. This orientation gives the property a wonderfully sheltered and private atmosphere, with greenery and mature plantings visible from almost every room. The relationship between the manor, the outbuildings and the surrounding grounds immediately creates a sense of calm on arrival.
Although listed as early as the 19th century, records suggest the origins of the property could date back to 1727. Architecturally, the house retains a restrained and distinctive character, with handsome brick diapering, elegant casement windows and unusual double-toothed detailing beneath the eaves. Particularly striking are the curved entrance walls leading to the former car shed, laid out with decorative pinnacles and stone ball finials that give the approach a distinctly Regency atmosphere. Inside, the house extends to over 3,300 sq ft and retains a wealth of original character. The main reception rooms are elegant without feeling overly formal, combining generous proportions with a welcoming warmth that reflects how the house has been lived in over the years. High ceilings, casement windows and period fireplaces appear throughout, while original shutters and decorative recessed arches remain in the front reception rooms.
The owners have approached improvements with care, aiming to enhance the house while preserving its atmosphere and original proportions. The palette in the principal reception rooms was chosen specifically to complement the Georgian detailing, with soft Wedgwood blues sitting comfortably against the built-in alcoves and fireplaces. In the main reception room, wide original Georgian pine floors have been laid, adding warmth and texture beneath the high ceilings. One of the most characterful rooms is the adjacent family room to the kitchen. Here, a inglenook fireplace was discovered during renovations, revealing the original opening hidden behind later bricks. A substantial wood-burning stove now sits in the brickwork niche, creating what the owner describes as the true heart of the house during winter months. The room exudes a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere, balancing the scale and proportions of the Georgian house with the comfort expected in a family home.
At the rear, the kitchen and garden form the daily hub of the home. The owner envisaged an orangery-style extension that would naturally join a Regency-era property, and the result is a bright dining/entertainment space that remains perfectly in keeping with the house’s original architecture. An extended glazing and a vaulted lantern draw sunlight into the room throughout the day while framing views of the surrounding gardens. The kitchen itself retains a practical farmstead feel, combining painted cabinetry with exposed brick details and a stone floor. Local ashlar stone flags were used in the orangery area, while Lincolnshire reclaimed red bricks from a 19th-century barn were incorporated into the garden walls outside. The bedroom suites are arranged on the upper floors, where the generous proportions remain. The ground floor comprises four bedrooms, plus a family bathroom and an en-suite, while an additional room provides flexibility as a dressing room or occasional bedroom as required. Throughout the house there is a strong sense of light and openness, enhanced by tall casement windows and elevated views of the gardens.
Above, two attic rooms occupy the second floor beneath spectacular vaulted ceilings with exposed structural beams. These timbers still bear roman numerals used in the original construction, adding another layer of historic character. The upper floor offers some of the house’s finest views, with distant marshland panoramas and vast Lincolnshire skies stretching to the horizon. The owner describes this level as one of their favourite parts of the house for this very reason.
Separated from the main house, the former car shed provides a substantial annexe spanning almost 900 sq ft. Configured with a reception room and a kitchen-diner on the lower level and two bedrooms above, the building offers great flexibility for guest accommodation, multi-generational living or independent workspace, while the adjacent open carport retains attractive original details, including brick pillars and historic feeding bays.
Yet many would argue that the gardens define Hagbeach Manor most memorably. Over the years the current owner has created an extraordinary landscape inspired by Regency garden traditions, balancing a formal structure with a more naturalistic approach intended to encourage wildlife and biodiversity. A lime-tree-lined avenue leads through the grounds to a formal walled garden centered around a fountain. Espalier fruit trees line the walls, benefiting from the heat retained by the masonry. The owner notes the south-facing walls grow exceptionally sweet peaches during warmer summers. The scale and variety of planting across the grounds are remarkable. More than 120 fruit trees have been planted, including apples, pears, greengages, damsons, plums, apricots and figs, as well as older and relatively rare varieties such as quince, medlar and mulberry. Many of the apples are historic East Anglia and Lincolnshire cultivars, bearing evocative names such as Bollingbrooke Beauty and Allington Pippin. The gardens are productive and beautiful. Over the years, the owner has produced cider, apple juice, quince paste, jams, elderflower cordial and damson gin from fruit harvested on the estate. From early summer to autumn there is almost always something ripening somewhere in the orchard and veg garden zones.
Equally important has been the creation of a landscape that actively supports wildlife. Long grassy pathways run through the gardens, while native hoverflies, hawthorns and sloes provide shelter and nesting for birds. Willows, oaks, chestnuts and poplars add structure and shade, while formal yew hedges introduce a more architectural element in keeping with the Regency inspiration behind the planting scheme. The results have been extraordinary. More than fifty species of birds and twenty species of butterflies have been recorded in the gardens, while swallows return each year to nest in the outbuildings. Four ponds attract frogs, toads, dragonflies and damselflies, and deer move discreetly across the grounds. The owner describes evenings spent outdoors listening to owls overhead, watching wildlife emerge at dusk and feeling completely detached from modern life pressures, while the property remains well connected to local amenities.
Hagbeach Manor is ultimately more than just a imposing period house. It is a carefully crafted property over decades into a deeply private and tranquil rural home where architecture, gardens and landscapes coexist in harmony. Located in the tranquil Marshes countryside on the outskirts of Whaplode, the house enjoys a remarkable sense of seclusion while remaining well connected to the region, with access to Spalding, Peterborough and rail links to London. The combination of Georgian character, flexible accommodation and exceptional gardens creates a home with an authentic atmosphere and individuality, offering beauty and serenity.

Built in 1999, The Corner House stands as a distinctive four-bedroom detached home, tucked away in a peaceful lane within a highly sought-after village. Spanning two levels, the property features notable architectural elements, including expansive floor-to-ceiling windows and impressive vaulted ceilings.
Ground floor The main entrance opens directly into an inner hall, providing storage for outerwear and shoes, and transforming into an impressive reception hall. The entrance hall offers a direct line of sight through the property to the rear garden. To the left of the hall is a long, spacious lounge with timber flooring, dual-aspect views, and patio doors leading to the garden. A central fireplace with an open fire acts as a focal point. From the lounge, a door grants access to a versatile room, currently functioning as an office, which also connects to the integrated double garage. To the right of the hall is a downstairs cloakroom with WC, while a glass partition on the other side of the hallway offers views of the charming snug, looking out onto the garden. The exceptional kitchen and dining area are undoubtedly standout features, offering triple aspect views and a vaulted ceiling that reveals exposed oak beam latticework. This space is ideal for entertaining, with a base and white-brick walls, laminated worktops, and integrated appliances such as an electric oven, a four-burner gas hob by Smeg, and a sink with a double stainless-steel drain. Provisions are also made for a dishwasher and a fridge/freezer. Adjacent to the kitchen and dining area is a practical utility room, equipped with additional base and wall units, a secondary sink, and connections for a washer, dryer and a fridge/freezer. First floor The stairs from the hall rise to a generous full-length landing with dual-aspect windows, incorporating an open sitting area with a southeast-facing countryside view. To the left of the landing are two double bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, one of which has an en-suite with a large corner shower, a surface-mounted basin, a chrome heated towel rail, and open storage shelves. To the right of the landing, a corridor leads to a large family bathroom equipped with a bath with shower mixer, wall-hung toilet, wall-hung basin, and a separate shower. A double bedroom at the front of the property and the principal bedroom lie along this corridor. The principal suite is remarkably spacious, with a dual-aspect view, a dressing room, and a contemporary three-piece bathroom featuring a basin, wall-hung toilet, corner shower, and chrome heated towel rail. Outside A gravel drive provides extensive off-road parking, complemented by an integrated double garage with wooden doors, power, and internal lighting, plus a door to the rear garden. The private, easily maintained rear garden offers a tranquil outdoor space, enclosed by a walled boundary. A strategically placed bridge captures morning and afternoon light.
