If you're looking for a charming countryside cottage with close proximity to a range of local communities, this beautiful home could be just what you’ve been searching for. Rezide is delighted to present this gorgeous two-bedroom cottage on Main Street, complete with a stunning landscaped garden and a converted outbuilding. The outbuilding currently serves as a utility space and reception area, but its versatility allows it to be used as an office space or would make for a fantastic home business. The main home also offers a cosy lounge featuring a roaring log burner and a distinctive spiral staircase, a bespoke kitchen with solid wood work surfaces, a contemporary bathroom, and off-road parking for three vehicles.
As you approach this delightful cottage, you’ll be struck by the idyllic setting, surrounded by open countryside and nestled in the charming village of Stanford on Soar. Upon entering the home through the front door, you're welcomed into the lounge area, which showcases rustic wood-effect flooring, peaceful whitewashed exposed beams, and a characterful brick fireplace with a roaring log burner. A window frames picturesque views of the countryside, while the spiral staircase adds architectural interest and leads to the upper floor.
Moving through to the kitchen, you'll discover a beautifully designed bespoke space featuring a variety of cabinetry styles, quartz and solid wood work surfaces, an integrated electric hob, oven, and fridge freezer. There is ample storage and a window overlooking the rear garden. The room is enhanced by tiled floors, stylish light fittings, and a charming barn-style door that opens to the breathtaking garden.
Upstairs, a small yet tastefully decorated landing features colourful wall coverings and fitted storage. There's space for additional furniture here as well. Immediately to the left is the smaller bedroom—a lovely single room with a rear-facing window, wood-effect floors, a column radiator, and attractive wall coverings. Across the landing, you’ll find the bathroom, which includes elegant Victorian-style fittings such as a clawfoot bath with overhead shower, a hand basin, heated towel rail, and a toilet. The walls are partly tiled, a chandelier adds a touch of elegance, and a window allows in plenty of natural light.
The principal bedroom is a generous double room with lush carpeting, stylish decor, and a window offering breathtaking views of the fields—an incredible sight to wake up to. A bank of fitted wardrobes spans one wall, providing ample storage space.
One of the standout features of this home is the large converted outbuilding. Currently arranged as a relaxation space and practical utility area, it includes a washing machine and dryer area, a ceramic sink, work surfaces, storage options, and a skylight that brings in plenty of natural light. A rear door leads to the off-road parking area, which accommodates two vehicles, while French doors and a second barn-style door offer views and access to the garden.
The garden itself is a beautifully landscaped oasis—perfect for relaxing and enjoying outdoor life. With two seating areas that capture excellent sunlight, established shrubs and plants offering privacy, and plenty of space to entertain or unwind, it’s a true highlight of the property.
We believe this delightful cottage would be ideal for a young couple, someone looking to retire, or anyone yearning for a peaceful lifestyle in the countryside. Situated in Stanford on Soar, you're just a 10-minute drive from Loughborough, where you’ll find an array of amenities. A footpath directly opposite the property leads into the scenic village of Normanton on Soar, perfect for dog walks along the idyllic River Soar or a visit to The Plough Inn for delicious food and drinks.
