An extraordinary residence, a meticulously crafted five-bedroom, light, airy and very spacious three-storey Edwardian townhouse that was built as one of a unique pair and that has kept much of its historical beauty but has been updated over the years to provide modern comfort. With easy access to Leicester City centre, this home was built to also provide a short trip into the best of Leicestershire countryside.
It is a stunning home filled with timeless elegance and thoughtful design, from original encaustic hall tiles, tall ceilings, solid wooden doors throughout, feature fireplaces, pictures rails, stunning plaster cornice and original sash windows in the front of the house, It offers 2 spacious reception rooms, 5 large double bedrooms, an oak and granite fitted kitchen and family bathroom, 2 separate toilets, one of which is spacious utility room.
Practicality meets efficiency with gas central heating throughout the home; double glazing in the bathrooms and rear bedrooms, ensuring comfort during every season. Outside, the property features off-road parking, a rare find in this sought-after location. At the rear is a 65' long, south facing, garden that is not overlooked and the trees at the far end are on a neighbouring wooded plot offering complete privacy but full sun on the house.
As you step through the front door, the entrance hall beckons with its attractive tiled floor, setting the tone for the character and charm of this residence. The front lounge (3.9m x 3.6m) is delightful, with a wooden floor warmth, a very large bay window that bathes the room in natural light, and a striking feature fireplace that is the focal point of the space. Built in on either side of the chimney breast are 2 custom shelves/cupboards in keeping with the period.
The modern kitchen, where functionality meets aesthetics was designed for a semi professional cook; taller than normal units to take advantage of the ceiling height and equipped with a suite of appliances, including 2 ovens, a 5 ring hob with extractor, built in fridge freezer, microwave, and dishwasher, this kitchen is a culinary haven for both seasoned chefs and aspiring cooks.
Next to the side door is a spacious utility room for washing machines/ dryer etc with a WC, units and sink. The rear lounge, featuring a state-of-the-art gas fire and patio doors, seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living. Step through the doors, and you find yourself in a private sunny garden characterized by a mature collection of plants.The far area beneath the trees is paved, featuring a 10'x 8' metal shed designated for the storage of tools and other items.
On the first floor up the main staircase are 3 of the 5 bedrooms, the middle one with custom fitted drawers/wardrobe and mirrored doors. All 3 are well appointed, light and spacious. On this floor is also a separate toilet and the modern family bathroom with a large double ended bath, oak units and granite surface, separate shower cubicle, underfloor heating and heated towel rail, this space has a spa-like feel.
Up to the 2nd floor, past the vast light well bringing natural light into the centre of the house, there are 2 bedrooms, the rear a nicely cosy space with a south facing view and the front is a huge room with original art nouveau fireplace and tiles. This floor can make for an excellent guest suite.
Finally there are 2 attics; the main one is boarded over, has power and lighting and is suitable for storage, access is through the rear first floor bedroom on a built in extending ladder
Situated in close proximity to local amenities, this townhouse is more than just a residence, it has for nearly 120 years been a much loved family home.
