Main Street Tur Langton, Leicester Guide Price £875,000

‘The Langtons’ are a collection of five villages, approximately 4 miles to the North of Market Harborough, that share a strong community ethos, centered around the well-regarded primary school in Church Langton itself and via events such as the ‘inter-Langtons’ cricket matches that take place every year on the cricket pitch in East Langton. Tur Langton is home to the popular public house and restaurant ‘The Crown’, and a thriving rural community business center ‘The Manor’ that includes a café, gift shop, hairdressers and fitness center, amongst other small businesses. St. Andrew’s Church also provides a strong village community hub and is a rare example of a Victorian red brick-built building. At the time of the 2011 census there were 315 residents living in 107 households, with a mix of good quality housing stock of differing ages, styles and sizes, with several listed buildings. Nearby Market Harborough has extensive facilities, and a range of boutique shops, restaurants and bars.

There is a wide selection of state and independent schooling in the area including the local Church Langton CE (Aided) and Great Bowden Primary Schools. Preparatory schools are at Spratton and Stoneygate (Great Glen). Secondary schooling is available locally at Market Harborough, Kibworth and Uppingham, whilst notable private secondary schooling options are available at Leicester Grammar School (Great Glen), Uppingham School, Oakham School, and Leicester High School. Buses run through the village to a number of these schools.

There is a regular bus service through the village into Market Harborough where the train station offers access to London St Pancras from 55 minutes, making the area an excellent location for those wishing to travel regularly to London for leisure or work purposes. Leicester and Peterborough are easily accessible via the A47, and the M1 and the M6 providing access to London, Birmingham and East Midlands airport.
