4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

A Contemporary Family Home with Woodland Backdrop & Scope for Annex Living

Nestled discreetly on the edge of the Charnwood Forest, this beautifully reimagined home occupies a generous plot and offers a refined blend of contemporary design, flexible living and connection to nature.

Over the past nine years, the current owners have undertaken a thoughtful programme of enhancements, including an architect-designed extension and terrace by award-winning RIBA practice Faber Architecture, the addition of Schüco bi-folding doors, a full rewire, integrated ceiling speakers, and an EV charger, all seamlessly combining style and practicality.

At the heart of the home lies a striking split-level kitchen, living and dining space, designed for modern family life and effortless entertaining. The kitchen features Neff appliances including an oven, induction hob and combined oven microwave as well as a Whirlpool dishwasher, and flows into the living area with its inviting log burner. Expansive bi-folding doors open onto a Mediterranean-inspired terrace, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. Steps rise to the elevated dining area, where double doors lead to a versatile snug/lounge, perfect for relaxation or entertaining.

A thoughtfully designed utility and boot room provides excellent storage, a practical sink, and direct access to the front of the home, ideal for returning from woodland walks. From here, a stylish shower room and an adjoining multi-purpose room (currently a home gym) with garden bi-folds offer the potential for a self-contained annex or guest suite.

To the front, a further reception room presents the perfect space for a home office or playroom, benefitting from high-speed internet via Ethernet which is also in every main living space throughout the property.

Upstairs, three double bedrooms provide elegant accommodation. The principal suite enjoys a glass Juliet balcony with captivating garden views, a walk-in dressing area, and a sleek en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms, one with built-in wardrobes, share a contemporary split-level bathroom, complete with a freestanding bath, walk-in rain shower and illuminated mirror.

The rear garden is a true highlight, backing directly onto mature woodland owned by Bradgate Park (but private from the public) and thoughtfully landscaped into distinct zones. The terrace, with its tranquil water feature, leads to an expansive lawn, culminating in a serene woodland edge, a haven for wildlife and peaceful outdoor living.

To the front, a wide driveway offers ample parking and an EV charging point.

This exceptional home combines architectural flair, flexible living and a sublime natural setting, the perfect retreat on the edge of Charnwood Forest.
