Description
A unique two/three-bedroom dormer bungalow with a one-bedroom self-contained annex, privately positioned on a well-established plot with a double garage and open views to the rear in the peaceful village of Ashby Folville.
Ground Floor - Enter the property into a light-filled entrance hall that provides access to the ground floor accommodation. At the front of the property are two principal reception rooms. The hallway flows to the right, leading into a generously proportioned living room with a Norwegian stylish log burner which flows seamlessly back into the entrance hall.
Opposite the living room is a second reception room, currently used as a office. This versatile space could easily serve as additional living accommodation or a ground floor bedroom, especially convenient given the adjacent shower room. Next to the shower room is a useful utility area and an external door opening out to the rear of the property.
To the rear, a third bedroom overlooks the garden and is currently used as a snug/sewing room. Adjacent to this is the dining kitchen, fitted with a range of modern units, a variety of integrated appliances, and space for an American-style fridge freezer. A central island with a breakfast bar provides both function and style. The kitchen opens into a bright and airy dining/living area, with glazing on three sides that floods the space with natural light. Bi-folding doors lead directly out to the patio and rear garden, creating a perfect indoor-outdoor connection. A downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor.
First Floor - Upstairs, the staircase rises to a spacious first-floor landing, currently used as an artist studio. The primary bedroom benefits from ample built-in storage and an en-suite shower room. A further single bedroom, currently used as a guest bedroom with built-in wardrobes, sits opposite.
One-Bedroom Annex - Set within the garden is a self-contained, one-bedroom annex-an attractive Swedish wood cabin offering a fully fitted kitchen, reception room, double bedroom, and en-suite shower room. It is connected to mains electricity and drainage and features electric heating
Outside - The property occupies a generous plot accessed via a shared private road leading to a gated, block-paved driveway offering ample off-road parking and access to a double garage. There is also pedestrian access to both sides of the property.
The rear garden is well-established, featuring a patio area, ornamental pond, mature planting, and a lawn interspersed with specimen trees. A post and rail fence and a gate marks the rear boundary, offering uninterrupted views of the open countryside beyond.
Location - Ashby Folville is a particularly attractive leafy village nestling in a shallow valley surrounded by Parkland. The village is particularly well known for its picturesque cricket ground and offers a popular local pub. More extensive local facilities are available at near-by Gaddesby, Syston and Queniborough and the village is particularly well placed for fast access to Leicester, Loughborough, Oakham, and Melton Mowbray.
Services & Council Tax - The property is offered to the market with all mains services and gas-fired central heating. There are solar panels installed on both the main house and the annex with battery backup.
