5 bed detached house for sale

Far Lane, Normanton On Soar LE12

Flexible, future-proof living takes centre stage here. Positioned on a generous plot of approcimately 0.34 acres, this standout property delivers two separate dwellings - ideal for multi-generational living, two families sharing, or those wanting to blend home life with a smart income stream.

Located at the end of a cul-de-sac in the ever-popular village of Normanton on Soar, the setting feels private and tucked away. The adjacent rail line becomes part of the charm, opening up far-reaching views from the elevated living spaces and offering a subtle nod to excellent connectivity beyond the village.

Number 53 is the larger of the two, with three ground floor bedrooms, a kitchen and family bathroom, topped by a spacious first-floor living room designed to capture the open outlook.

Number 53a complements it perfectly - a fully self-contained two-bedroom home with its own impressive upstairs living space, making it ideal for relatives, guests, or as a standalone rental.

The outside space is where the opportunity really expands. A large, adaptable garden invites everything from shared family use to the creation of kitchen gardens or a more self-sufficient lifestyle. A tandem garage, multiple outbuildings, and generous parking add practicality, while a former mobile home / storeroom presents clear scope for conversion into an annexe, workspace or studio (subject to permissions).

For buyers with an eye on income, the second dwelling is ready-made for Airbnb or longer-term letting - offering immediate earning potential while preserving privacy for the main home.

Versatile, income-generating, and perfectly suited to modern combined living - this is a property that opens doors to multiple ways of living, all in one place.
