Principal bedroom with en-suite shower room Two further bedrooms Bathroom Attic rooms Various workshop and store rooms, including a tandem garage Farmyard with general purpose CPF & pole barns In all 29 acres of thereabouts of pasture Bridge Farm Occupying a discreet position on the edge of the village, the south-facing detached farmhouse occupies an elevated position, accessed from the single track no-through lane, Main Street, over which the cottage has fine views to its own land. The largely stone and colleyweston Grade II Listed house requires some modernisation, but offers two symmetrical reception rooms and an almost full-width breakfasting kitchen, with utility and cloak/wc on the ground floor, with three first floor bedrooms served by two bath or shower rooms and additional attic store rooms. An adjoining L-shaped brick and tiled roof outbuilding range contains store rooms and a tandem garage, which it is thought has potential, subject to all Listed consents, for incorporation within the house. The farmyard lies to the rear (north) of the house and incorporates a number of good concrete portal framed lambing and general purpose buildings. The land extends to 29 acres, or thereabouts, and lies in two distinct ringfenced blocks separated by the lane, generally bordering the River Gwash to the north. Largely level, the land is arranged in large fields suited to sheep and cattle which have grazed it in recent years. It is capable of sub-division and there is excellent riding on the door step, with a public bridleway that allows hacking over countryside to Gunthorpe and beyond adjoining the land to the east. A fenced public footpath also crosses the land to the south of the hamlet Location Little more than a large hamlet, 2.5 miles west of Oakham, Brooke has an attractive mix of largely period properties arranged around the picturesque Parish Church of St Peter, which featured in the 2005 film adaption of Pride & Prejudice, in glorious rolling countryside, with public bridleways passing close to the property, allowing riding out from the property with little road riding. Oakham and Uppingham provide a wide range of amenities, as well as excellent schools, whilst more extensive facilities are found in Stamford and Peterborough. Rutland Water is a feature of the area providing a wealth of leisure, walking, sailing and water sport opportunities; The A1 lies approx. 6 miles to the east, providing rapid road access to the north and London as well as Cambridge. There is an excellent train service from Market Harborough & Kettering to London St Pancras International or via Oakham to Peterborough for the East Coast Mainline;
