A rare opportunity with huge potential.

Vandermere is a much-loved detached bungalow, quietly positioned within the peaceful Leicestershire village of Ragdale. Offered for sale for the first time since being built, this is an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a substantial home in a village where properties seldom become available.

Extending to approximately 1,685 sq ft (157 sq m), the existing accommodation provides generous proportions, including a spacious lounge/diner, kitchen with pantry, three bedrooms, family bathroom and useful additional spaces.

Yet it is the potential that makes Vandermere particularly exciting. Set back from Main Street behind a mature garden, with a garage and ample parking, the property offers considerable scope for modernisation, extension or redevelopment, subject to the necessary planning consents.

For the purchaser with vision, Vandermere represents a chance to create something truly special - transforming an established home and its generous setting into a property designed for a new generation.

And beyond the opportunity itself is the enduring appeal of Ragdale: a peaceful countryside village surrounded by rolling Leicestershire landscape, offering the rare combination of space, privacy, village character and accessibility.

A property rarely offered. A remarkable opportunity. A new chapter waiting to be created.
