Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
Entering via the front door and into an impressive entrance hall you will gain an immediate sense of the space and quality of accommodation the property has to offer, and your eyes will be instantly drawn to the high beamed ceilings and deep windowsills. Partially sectioned, the hall allows flexibility to be used as a ‘work from home study area’ and there are doors to the right-hand side that lead to a convenient Cloakroom/W.C. and Utility/Laundry Room. A solid oak staircase rises to the first-floor landing and houses a handy cloak cupboard underneath.

To the left of the entrance hall and very much the centrepiece of this magnificent home is the wonderful kitchen/dining room. Naturally bright through glazed double doors out to the rear garden the space has been designed with a busy family in mind with fully integrated appliances (that includes a NEFF ground coffee machine) housed within beautiful beechwood and cream-coloured units, worktops and drawers whilst a large central island with ample storage discreetly tucked away within creates a social hub that will see the family and friends naturally gather round at all times of the day.

The living room is situated just off the kitchen and provides a welcome place to retreat unwind and relax. Characterful touches are found in the large timber beam that spans the width of the room and an elegant sash window facing to the front with views of Scraptoft Hall whilst double doors opposite once again reconnect the inside and outside spaces of the home.

Climb the stairs to the first floor and turn left into the second bedroom, which instantly impresses with its overall size upon entry as your eye is drawn to the vaulted ceiling and its exposed timbers. Across the landing, the principal bedroom also enjoys the same dramatic ceilings and generous proportions together with an ultra-modern fully tiled ensuite shower room featuring a double-width shower and a ‘floating’ basin.
The third bedroom completes a trio of double bedrooms all complemented by a luxurious family bathroom fitted with a modern four-piece suite.

Outside:
The fully enclosed low maintenance rear garden is mainly laid to an artificial lawn and features its very own putting green with a raised patio area providing the perfect place for alfresco dining.

Parking: A single garage can be found in a small row of three as you enter the main courtyard and approach the property which provides an allocated parking space for one car. Head on through the main arch and immediately to the left you will find an additional driveway with side-by-side parking for two more vehicles that leads to the rear door of the utility room.

Our Vendor’s Comment
“I love the high specification and large rooms within the home – there is a real wow factor. The location is excellent – quiet and surrounded by beautiful walks yet with a large pub and local shop. It’s very near to Leicester and Rutland and a very peaceful and calm place to live.”
