Normanton Le Heath is a small rural village lying approximately 4 miles away from the market town of Ashby-de-la-Zouch. So much goes on behind the scenes within the village with a vibrant social life for both young and old, with nearby villages at Packington and Heather providing local schooling. The village has an old 13th Century Church and for commuters the M42 provides access to many East and East Midlands towns. Also nearby is Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee Woodland Park following the planting of 300,000 Native Broadleef trees. The 460-acre park is now flourishing into a beautiful woodland with bluebells and wooden anemones lighting up the forest floor in the ancient woodland areas in the springtime, and at the lake you will find a wide variety of wildlife.

Accommodation - Knights House has a beautiful position opposite the historic village church and lies back behind mature hedgerow with a sweeping stone chipped driveway with lawn to the side.

Set beneath the canopy porch, a uPVC entrance door opens into a central hallway with stairs leading off alongside a luxury contemporary guest's cloakroom with natural stone flooring and a white suite comprising wall mounted wash basin with glass tiled splash backs and WC. The natural stone flooring runs into the adjacent living room, this is a light and bright room due to its dual aspect windows and sitting at the centre point is a large recessed log burning stove providing a warming focal point. French double doors lead out onto the natural stone patio area and gardens beyond, and a connecting door leads you directly through into the heart of the home - the open plan social living and dining kitchen. This too has natural stone tiled flooring underfoot and features a large dining area which could easily accommodate a 10 or 12 seated table and a curved bay window overlooks the garden. The kitchen itself has a wide range of base mounted cabinets wrapping around two sides of the room with deep drawers and a pull out carousel unit alongside an integral Bosch dishwasher.
