The shop is combined with generous two story accommodation, generous gardens and a desirable location with passing trade between Loughborough, East Midlands Airport and the surrounding area.

There is separate access to the living accommodation entered through the hallway and into a separate lounge which enjoys modern wood laminate flooring, a bay window flooding the room with light and centred around a cast iron log burner.

It's at the rear of the home though where we can imagine spending all of the day times in and out of the garden and fully utilising the large living dining kitchen with space for a sofa arrangement, dining table and central kitchen island.

Upstairs there are two further double bedrooms, number two with fitted wardrobes with sliding mirrored doors and number three with dual aspect windows making it a nice light, bright room and also overlooking the rear garden. There is an upstairs bathroom serving these two bedrooms and this includes a separate shower enclosure with mixer shower, corner bath with off tap mixer shower and fully tiled walls.

The retail shop enjoys a traditional timber framed single glazed shop front window and entrance door leading into the shop premises which has fitted counters, shelving and display areas and is currently stocked with an array of local convenience foods, daily supplies, newspapers and magazines, drinks etc. Leading off the back of the shop premises is an office store and a separate wc currently utilised as a storage space.

The extensive frontage offers plenty of parking for passing trade with an elevated timber decked sitting area which could be utilised as an area for teas and coffees etc along with a brick built single garage.

Gated access to the side leads around to a generous rear lawned garden fully screened by mature hedges and trees and the side area offers potential for an additional small building plot subject to planning permission etc.

Good to know: The property has majority uPVC double glazing throughout, gas central heating and under floor heating downstairs.
