Situated within the old part of the village, a stunning and spacious, three/four bedroom detached family home, on a beautiful plot of approximately 0.17 acres.

Location - The village of Houghton on the Hill lies seven miles east of Leicester city centre and enjoys a strong community spirit; unusually for a village of its size, it offers a wide range of local amenities including a village store, post office, hair salon, pharmacy, parish church, two public houses and a popular primary school. The village is surrounded by some of Leicestershire's most attractive rolling countryside with the market towns of Uppingham and Market Harborough only a short distance away.

Accommodation - The property is entered via a porch with a faux stable door and a UPVC and glazed door leading into the entrance hall, with oak flooring and inset ceiling spotlights, housing the stairs to the first floor. An inner lobby gives access to a ground floor cloakroom with a window to the front providing a low flush WC and a study, with inset ceiling spotlights and a window to the side. The sitting room has a uPVC double glazed bay window to the front elevation, a contemporary inset gas fire, ceiling coving, wooden flooring and a further hi-line window to the rear. The living/dining kitchen has a window to the rear elevation and boasts an excellent range of cream fronted eye and base level units and drawers, ample preparation surfaces, metro tiled splashbacks, integrated fridge and freezer, a Stoves Range oven with hob and stainless steel/glass extractor unit over, an island unit houses an inset stainless steel one and a half bowl inset sink and drainer unit with mixer tap over provides further storage and houses an integrated dishwasher; there is oak flooring throughout leading into the living and dining area, with a window to the rear and sliding doors leading onto the patio and garden beyond. A utility room with further storage and a sink provides plumbing for an automatic washing machine.

To the first floor is a return landing with ceiling coving and a window to the front. The master bedroom has a bank of built-in wardrobes, ceiling coving, wood laminate effect flooring and a uPVC double glazed window to the side elevation. Bedroom two has a uPVC double glazed window to the side, ceiling coving, built-in wardrobes and a chest of drawers. Bedroom three has built-in wardrobes and a uPVC double glazed window to the side elevation. The bathroom has a contemporary four piece suite comprising an enclosed WC, a wash hand basin with cupboards under, a corner shower cubicle and a panelled bath, electric shaver point, chrome heated towel rail, fully tiled walls and floor and two uPVC double glazed windows to the side.

Outside - To the front of the property is a large driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles, with planted and tree'd borders. To the rear of the property are beautiful, fully fenced gardens, mostly laid to lawn with a block paved patio entertaining area, an abundance of mature shrubs, trees and flowers and a path leading past a garden shed to a double garage (accessed via Uppingham Road) having two windows, a personal door and a roller shutter door the rear; communal electric gated access leads to this access and further gravelled parking.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 15, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 15, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
