Set on highly regarded Swithland Lane in Rothley, this extended five-bedroom detached home is designed for family life and entertaining. The contemporary open-plan kitchen-diner with bi-folding doors creates a bright social hub that flows directly to a private, well-established rear garden. Owned solar panels reduce running costs; off-street parking and an attached garage add practical everyday convenience.
Upstairs are five bedrooms — four comfortable doubles — and two bathrooms, giving flexible sleeping arrangements for family and guests. The ground floor also includes a separate sitting room, conservatory, utility room and a downstairs WC, so daily routines remain separate from formal living and entertaining spaces. The overall footprint and large plot offer scope for further improvement or extension subject to planning.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and has double glazing installed before 2002 and partial cavity wall insulation assumed. The EPC is a D, and broadband speeds are recorded as very slow — relevant for home workers and streaming-heavy households. There are two bathrooms for five bedrooms, which may prompt upgrades for larger families.
This house sits in a very low-crime, very affluent village environment with excellent local schools, green spaces and easy road links to Leicester, Loughborough and the M1. It will suit growing families seeking space, a private garden and a village setting, or buyers looking for a substantial home with potential to modernise and add value.
