Set behind private gates on a large plot in sought-after Rothley, this extended five-bedroom detached home delivers over 4,000 sqft of flexible living space ideal for families. The ground floor impresses with a vaulted glass frontage, underfloor-heated tiled hallway and an open-plan kitchen/diner with a central island, wood-burning stove and French doors opening to a south-facing garden. A substantial reception room currently used as a games/entertainment space sits alongside a separate room converted from the garage, presently used as a hair salon with its own WC and external access — convenient for a home business or independent office.
Upstairs there are four principal bedrooms plus a self-contained suite above the garage that functions as an annex with its own kitchen area, living room and ensuite; this could remain as a guest or dependent suite, or be reconfigured into a fifth bedroom if desired. The master bedroom benefits from a walk-in wardrobe, fitted furniture, luxury ensuite and balcony with woodland views. High ceilings, extensive built-in storage and modern bathrooms add to the family appeal.
Outside offers gated parking, a block-paved driveway, and a double garage (one half currently converted to a studio). The south-facing rear garden is predominantly lawn with a patio, pathway around the plot, seating area and large summerhouse—good privacy and plenty of scope for landscaping or extension (subject to consent). Practical positives include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and very low local crime.
Notable points to consider: council tax is high for the area and half of the double garage has been converted into a studio (reverting it would require work). Some local schools nearby have mixed Ofsted reports, so buyers should check individual catchments. Overall this is a substantial, versatile family home with annex potential and opportunities for adaptation.
