Winander, Leece, LA12

A superb extended family home in an idyllic village location! Situated in the quiet, picturesque village of Leece, this property oozes charm and character whilst providing further opportunities to develop and modernise where required.

Previously two separate buildings which have been lovingly renovated and made into a large family home, there are three reception rooms, a country-style kitchen, pantry, utility kitchen, four double bedrooms and two large family bathrooms.
