Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Leicester, LE19 :
This five bedroom home has a surprisingly modern, spacious feel combining 19th Century charm and the very latest in modern luxuries. White walls, limestone floors and free flowing accommodation result in a winning combination for the modern family. A large hallway with log burner, 31ft reception room and family kitchen with roof lantern and bi folding doors are just some of the features of this highly individual home. The master bedroom has its own dressing room and en suite and there is a large tandem garage with electric door. Lawned rear gardens are ideally proportioned and offer a high degree of privacy in this extremely convenient village centre location.
Lovingly Refurbished
The stunning home you see today is the result of an extensive and meticulous restoration over the past four years by the current owners. It is hard to imagine this spacious home started life as four farm cottages. Carefully vetted trade professionals were appointed to strip the cottage back to its ' bare bones' and having done so the current owners were thrilled so discover so many delightful features. Every element of the refurbishment was carefully considered, with no expense spared, resulting in a home that combines a mix of charm and character and modern luxuries. The striking entrance hall is central to the property and features a dual aspect log burner that also serves the dining area. Overlooking the rear garden is a light and spacious kitchen where everyone inevitably gravitates. This room provides such a magnificent space for relaxed, sociable eating and 3m bi-folding doors serve well to bring the outside in. An ideal house in which to entertain friends and family and Christmas is always a special time here, with lots of freedom for guests to join in the celebrations or to escape to a quiet corner. The walled gardens are easily maintained and have been carefully planned to provide interest throughout the year. An idyllic area of peace and tranquillity, together with a large space for friendly relaxed dining. This has been such a happy home, and the owners can feel justly proud that they leave their home in good shape for the enjoyment of future custodians.
