Property for sale in Oakham, Rutland
2 Bedroom Cottage
Price: £165,000 GBP
A charming semi-detached cottage situated close to the centre of this beautiful Rutland village. Built of stone beneath a Collyweston slate roof, the cottage is in need of thorough renovation and is ideal for an extension. Planning Permission has been granted by the Rutland District Council for an extension in accordance with the attached plans. The cottage is approached from Well Cross via a footpath past the adjoining cottage. (The property is shown outlined in red on the attached location plan). The accommodation is adequate for occupation whilst an extension is being built. Negotiations with the adjoining neighbours would be necessary to enable materials to be taken onto the site.
