Set in an attractive village on the edge of Bradgate Park, this five-bedroom detached house blends period character with a striking contemporary extension. The open-plan living/dining/kitchen zone and multiple reception rooms create generous, light-filled spaces for family life and entertaining, with large bi-folds opening onto a substantial stone terrace and extensive lawned grounds.
Practical family features include a ground-floor bedroom with en-suite (suitable for guests or a dependent relative), a utility room, and a detached double garage with electric door and power. Mature trees, a stream with a wooden footbridge, an outdoor covered bar and a separate studio add flexibility and excellent outdoor amenity on a very large plot.
Important considerations: the house is Grade II listed and lies within a conservation area, which will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or extension plans. Flood risk is assessed as medium for the postcode, and council tax is described as quite expensive — both factors to weigh for ongoing running costs and insurance. Broadband speeds are average despite excellent mobile signal.
This property will suit buyers seeking a spacious, characterful family home in a highly desirable rural village, where modern open-plan living and high-spec kitchen fittings meet preserved historic fabric. A viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, setting and the mix of traditional and contemporary features, and to assess any listed‑building implications.
