4 bedroom detached house for sale

A distinguished character home with a spectacular living kitchen and mature grounds. Steeped in local history and enjoying a unique position.

The former Station House to the Great Central Railways’ Rothley station, you can enjoy views over the platform and visiting steam trains from your garden. A recent full renovation gives buyers peace of mind that they are acquiring a low maintenance, turn key home. One that brings together the charm of its history along with modern day essentials such a large living kitchen, an en-suite and plenty of parking and garages.

From the moment you step inside, this remarkable home delivers on style and charm. The entrance hall sets the tone with its beautiful Minton tile flooring and elegant staircase rising to the first floor, complete with a useful under-stairs cloakroom/WC.

To the front, the sitting room is rich in period character, featuring a striking fireplace, home to a stove, stripped timber flooring, and high ceilings with original cornice and picture rail.

Without doubt, the showstopper is the split-level living/dining kitchen, a space designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The living area focuses towards a wood-burning stove (not included in the sale) before stepping down to the dining and kitchen areas. Parquet flooring links the entire space together and bi-fold doors open to the garden filling the room with light. The kitchen itself offers ample storage, space for a Range cooker and American-style fridge/freezer, plus a utility room with plumbing for a washing machine.

The spacious landing leads to three substantial double bedrooms. The principal suite enjoys a south-facing Juliet balcony overlooking the garden, four skylight windows for maximum light, a dressing room, and a luxurious en-suite shower room. The family bathroom echoes the heritage of the home with a period-style suite and shower over the bath.

A return staircase leads to an attic conversion, providing a generous fourth double bedroom.

The gardens wrap around this home and offer a sense of privacy from the road. The larger garden is found to the rear with a patio terrace, lawn, and mature herbaceous beds set amongst specimen trees. To the side, there is off-street parking and a substantial double garage with power, lighting, and an electric roller door. Beyond, an open-bay secure campervan store adds rare flexibility.

Situated on Westfield Lane, one of Rothley’s most prestigious addresses, this home is moments from Rothley Park Golf Course, and a short stroll to the Great Central Railway station. Rothley itself offers a wealth of amenities, independent shops, and a thriving village community, pubs and for this home, your nearby corner shop Norths Deli, where David North will greet you and show you his fabulous collection of goodies and treats.
