Its a short drive to Rutland Water, Stamford and all the charming villages and places of interest in picturesque, unspoiled county of Rutland. We have a driveway for one car and there are no parking restrictions here anyway. It is a short walk up the hill to the High Street to visit the historic town's antique shops, independent clothes and gift shops etc and restaurants The interior of the house has been finished to a very high standard with new boiler, kitchen, bathroom with new shower etc. Downstairs is light, airy and open plan with an additional sun lounge at the rear. There are 2 double bedrooms however the 2nd one is on the small side but accommodates a double bed, and a hanging space for clothes. The first bedroom is much larger and has a fitted wardrobe and cupboard. There is sofa bed in the lounge (sleeps 1) The house is in a quiet residential area. The town and all the eateries, wine bar and pubs and independent shops are within walking distance ( up the hill!). Outside a lot of work has been put into terracing and planting out the back garden. You can sit on the patio and enjoy the sun when it shines. There is free High Speed WiFi and a Smart TV with an integrated DVD player in the lounge. Open countryside is reached easily in different directions - there is a circular walk via a public footpath to Bisbrook reached at the end of the street by the cricket field.There is now a footpath to the beautiful Ironstone village of Lyddington where medieval Bede House nestles next the church and is an English Heritage site. Rutland water is very close - take a ride on the Rutland belle or hire bikes and cycle round the lake. There is now even a beach and swimming area at Rutland Water in the Summer! Parking is free on our street and we have a driveway for one car. There are buses to Leicester, Corby and Oakham from the town. Nearest train station is Corby. A little further away is Kettering or Peterborough. London is aprox 1 hour ish away dependent on the line. We often have guests who are using Uppingham as a base to meet up with friends from other parts of the country as it is so central and easy to get to. It is just off the A47 which links Leicester and Peterborough, and on the A6003 which connects Kettering with Oakham. So from the North or South you can use the A1 and the the A47. From the West Midlands on the M6 then the A14 to Kettering is a good route, then up the A6003 following signs to Oakham ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport -
