Summary - CHURCH OF ST GUTHLAC, CHURCH LANE LE14 4HB
5 bed 1 bath Detached
Period character and large private gardens in a sought-after Vale village.
Five double bedrooms plus versatile home office/hobbies room
Laburnum House is a rare, historically significant five-bedroom detached home dating from c.1750, set in the picturesque Vale of Belvoir. The property combines original Georgian and Victorian character — Flemish bond brickwork, high ceilings and feature fireplaces — with a recently upgraded, high-spec kitchen and generous reception rooms spread over three floors, including two useful basement cellars.
Set on c.0.26 acres, the wraparound gardens are a major asset: mature trees, planted borders, a paved patio and a gently flowing stream give privacy and a peaceful outlook. The layout suits family living and entertaining, with a breakfast room opening directly to the garden and multiple interconnecting reception spaces that retain historical provenance from the former lace-making works.
Practical considerations are clear and factual. There is one main bathroom for five bedrooms, broadband speeds are slow, council tax is banded high and the stone walls are assumed to lack insulation. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; glazing is double but the install date is unknown. These factors mean some running-cost and improvement work may be needed, but they also create scope for buyers wanting to sympathetically modernise while preserving period charm.
The village location offers convenience within a rural setting — an outstanding primary school, shop, pub and good road links nearby — making this an appealing home for families seeking space, history and character with realistic refurbishment potential.
