An impressive Victorian link-detached ex ballroom Grade II* Listed home part of Stretton Hall, set in stunning countryside. Offering over 5,000 sq.ft of elegant accommodation, this substantial home features a bespoke handmade kitchen, original mahogany flooring, grand reception rooms, and five bedrooms. The property boasts formal landscaped gardens of around half an acre, a private gated driveway, two garages, and ample parking.
Welcome to Manor House, the spectacular Victorian link-detached home of the iconic Grade II* Listed Stretton Hall. This remarkable home spans approximately 5,490 sq.ft and offers substantial, opulent living that harmoniously blends historic grandeur with modern luxury.
From the moment you step into the grand octagonal entrance hall, you are greeted by magnificent proportions, high ceilings, intricate ceiling covings, picture rails, and the warmth of the original mahogany flooring, a rare and stunning feature that flows throughout much of the home, reflecting its rich heritage. The splendid reception spaces include a formal dining room, a grand living room, a charming music room/ bedroom five, and a bespoke handmade real wood kitchen. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed for both everyday family living and entertaining on a grand scale, complete with a striking granite island worktop that forms the heart of the space.
The family home is spread across three floors plus a substantial loft room. There are five generously sized bedrooms, with the principal suite enjoying its own luxurious en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. In total, the property offers four well-appointed bathrooms, including a standout Villeroy & Boch bathroom, which was proudly featured in Aspiration magazine — a true statement of style and quality. A snug area on the first floor provides a cosy retreat, perfect for relaxation or a study space.
Externally, Manor House is approached via electric gates onto a gravel driveway, access to a detached garage and parking for several vehicles. The property enjoys formal landscaped gardens of approximately half an acre, providing an enchanting setting with mature lawns, patio terraces, and beautifully planted borders. The garden boasts two plum trees, three apple trees, and a fig tree, offering both charm and the delights of homegrown fruit.
The Manor House is more than just a home — it is a rare opportunity to own a distinguished part of Leicestershire’s history, combining period charm, architectural beauty, and modern living.
