Description
A stylishly extended detached dormer bungalow on the Leicestershire/Rutland Border. Set within a generous 0.47-acre plot in one of the area's most sought-after villages, this beautifully refurbished detached dormer bungalow offers a rare opportunity for growing families seeking space, versatility, and high-quality contemporary living.
Accommodation - Thoughtfully extended and finished to an exceptional standard, the property features five spacious double bedrooms, including two with ensuite shower rooms, a luxurious ground floor bathroom, and a spectacular open-plan living kitchen; all designed with comfort and modern family life in mind.
On entering, you're welcomed into a bright and spacious hallway laid with engineered oak flooring. A bespoke fitted cupboard provides practical storage for coats and footwear and discreetly houses the oil-fired Grant Vortex Eco boiler (last serviced February 2025).
To the rear, the elegant sitting room enjoys leafy garden views through a large, glazed door and rear window, allowing natural light to flood the space. An oak pocket door opens into the stunning open-plan kitchen - the true heart of the home, which can also be accessed via stylish double Crittall doors from the hallway. A glass corner façade and floor-to-ceiling windows frame picturesque garden views, while double doors open directly onto a generous patio terrace.
The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of sleek, contemporary cabinetry topped with high-end stone worksurfaces. A large central island provides further workspace and houses premium integrated Siemens appliances, including double ovens, a full-height fridge and freezer, a dishwasher, a Bora induction hob with integrated extractor, Quooker instant boiling water tap, and a wine cooler enhancing the luxurious feel of this impressive space.
Across the hall, a well-appointed guest cloakroom features a contemporary Duravit suite, while the utility room offers additional fitted storage, a sink and drainer, and space for further appliances.
Two ground-floor double bedrooms both benefit from fitted wardrobes and are served by a stylish family bathroom complete with a Duravit three-piece suite, bath with shower over, WC, and a vanity basin.
Upstairs, the converted dormer loft space provides two generously sized double bedrooms, each enjoying floor-to-ceiling picture windows that frame stunning views over the rear garden and open countryside beyond. Both bedrooms feature cleverly concealed doors to private walk-in wardrobes and modern ensuite shower rooms.
Outside - The front of the property is approached via a sweeping in-out block-paved driveway edged with slate chippings and mature borders, offering off-road parking for up to 8 vehicles. The integral double garage features an electric roller door and internal access to the main hallway. To the side of the property, a secure and spacious garden store, accessible from both front and rear, houses the oil tank and offers excellent additional storage. To the rear is a large patio entertaining area accessed from both the open plan kitchen and sitting room. Steps lead down to an extensive lawned garden with mature trees, hedges and shrubs. The total plot extends to approximately 0.47 acres.
