Set in the heart of Swithland, this substantial five-bedroom detached house combines generous family living with contemporary specification. The handmade RS Interiors kitchen and open dining/sitting area are designed for entertaining, while three further reception rooms provide flexible space for a home office, playroom or formal dining. Underfloor heating on the ground floor and an EPC B rating give year-round comfort and reasonable running costs.
Sleeping five with four ensuite bathrooms plus a principal bathroom, the first floor is finished with artisan carpets and bespoke wardrobes for considered storage. Practical touches include a separate utility, pre-wiring for a full home entertainment system and a double garage with ample driveway parking. The south-facing landscaped garden leads to a stream and woodland backdrop, offering privacy and countryside character on a very large plot.
Notable considerations: broadband is reported as very slow and mobile coverage average — important if you work from home. Records list the property as constructed 1950–1966 with granite walls assumed to have no insulation; buyers should check thermal performance and any implications for upgrading wall insulation. The house sits in a conservation area, which preserves village character but may restrict external alterations. Flooding risk is recorded inconsistently in the supplied information; purchasers should obtain up-to-date local flood risk and legal advice.
Overall, this home will suit families or professionals seeking a substantial, high-spec village residence with generous indoor and outdoor space. The combination of modern finishes, multiple reception rooms and a large plot offers immediate comfortable living and scope to personalise, while the 10-year new-build warranty provides additional peace of mind.
