Set on highly regarded Swithland Lane in Rothley, this extended five-bedroom detached house offers generous family space across approximately 2,277 sq ft. The heart of the home is a contemporary open-plan kitchen-diner with bi-folding doors that open onto a private, well-established rear garden — ideal for family meals and summer entertaining. The ground floor also includes a separate sitting room, conservatory, utility room and a convenient downstairs WC.
Upstairs are five bedrooms — four comfortable doubles — served by two bathrooms. The substantial driveway and attached single garage provide off-street parking for several cars. Owned solar panels are fitted, helping reduce running costs, and the property benefits from mains gas central heating; energy rating D.
Practical points to note: glazing was installed before 2002 (older double glazing), and the cavity walls are only partially insulated (assumed), typical of homes built c.1976–1982. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, and with two bathrooms for five bedrooms some buyers may wish to reconfigure or add additional facilities. Overall the house sits on a large plot in a very low-crime, affluent suburb with easy road links to Loughborough, Leicester and the M1.
This is a spacious, well-located family home with scope to modernise further to personal taste. Buyers seeking a substantial property in a sought-after village setting will appreciate the flexible room layout and private garden; those prioritising ultra-fast broadband or fully upgraded insulation may need to allow for improvements.
