First one for you today is a charming 5 bedroom former farmhouse in Leicestershire. Ideal for those owner occupiers as well as investors... but this one has a little extra potential too.

There is a detached barn with the property that is ripe for redevelopment/conversion (stc), and while this is an obvious opportunity for the investor, developer or builder, likewise for the owner occupier it can be a perfect project property to work on at leisure while living in the main building. Ideal for creating a B&B business opportunity, additional accommodation for loved ones, a tailored workspace/workshop, or space suited to various hobbies and interests(all stpp of course!).

Taking a closer look at the family home itself, I was delighted to see the internal image shows off some very charming ceiling beams in a light and well proportioned space. The property stands in mature gardens, and benefits from a driveway providing ample parking space. Overall, this one would suit a wide range of buyers, but the biggest opportunity of all is for the owner occupier who would benefit not only from this spacious 5 bedroom home, but also the chance to take advantage of that barn space and create something truly tailored to their own needs :-)

Next one is for the developers and builders... again, in Leicestershire, here is a rare opportunity to pick up a property in shell condition, but with excellent potential. From the exterior it only takes a glance to see just how stunning this 6 bedroom property will be on completion. Having reached the stage where the roof is on and double glazed windows have been fitted, it's now in need of full finishing works including electrics, walls, staircase etc. With parking to the front, plus garden and garage to the rear, this will be a highly desirable family home once the work is complete.

Now it's over to Bedfordshire, and a fantastic fixer upper opportunity. This Grade II Listed period farmhouse has no less than 3000 sq ft of accommodation, and is set in gardens of around 1/2 an acre. While this will be of interest to investors keen to fix the place up and sell it on for quick profit, there is also plenty of opportunity for the owner occupier looking to find that perfect project property.

This is a very attractive property in a highly desirable village setting with some lovely features including some wonderful ceiling beams. There's a whole variety of rooms in this 6 bedroom farmhouse, and it is well worth the effort and TLC to return it to peak condition. Whether purchased as an investment, or as a project property, this will be a fantastic family home :-)
