The Langtons have been long recognised as some of the most sought after villages within the county. The popularity is derived not only from the quality of the housing stock and surrounding countryside but also access to excellent schooling both in the state and private sector with the Church Langton school being a major influence for families moving in to the area. Access to Leicester Grammar and Stoneygate School at Great Glen are within a 10 minute drive with Uppingham and Oakham schools readily accessible.
Market Harborough is situated four miles to the south and offers a wide range of amenities and niche shopping and a railway station providing access to St Pancras in one hour ten minutes. Leicester city centre is nine miles to the north and provides an extensive range of shopping and leisure amenities normally associated with a regional centre.
The accommodation, which is all centrally heated has been stylishly presented by the current owners and briefly comprises: elegant reception/dining hall, sitting room, dining/family room, kitchen, conservatory, media room, utility room, cloakroom, staircase and landing to five bedrooms, master and guest bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms and separate family bathroom. Outside Quorn House sits in approximately one acre of which half an acre is paddock. A further two and a half acre paddock lies adjacent to the driveway which is available to buy or rent by separate negotiation. Ample car standing is provided on a large gravel driveway which gives access to a detached double garage with home office above.
This unique family home in an idyllic setting is offered with the agent’s strongest recommendation.
