Kupnja nekretnine - The Hawthorns is an Edwardian architectural masterpiece, built in 1906 and standing as one of the most beautiful and characterful residences on one of Oadby’s most desirable addresses. Located behind a long broad driveway on approximately 0.56 acres of grounds, you immediately sense that this is something entirely different. This remarkable property extends to an impressive total of 5,455 square feet, comprising the main house, a detached annexe, the garage and outbuildings, offering a scale and versatility rarely found in this area. As you step into the entrance hall, the story of the house begins to unfold. A double-height, imposing and light-filled space, with original wooden flooring beneath your feet and a staircase rising above, are among the finest you will find in a private home. The detailing along the balustrades, the view across the landing above, the chandelier above. It stops you in your tracks, as it should. The same original flooring continues along the ground-floor hallway, a thread of authenticity running through the heart of the house. The reception rooms are in another league. Original fireplaces, cornicing and complex mouldings, high ceilings, richly panelled walls and original bay windows combine to create spaces that are both historic and utterly liveable. Whether entertaining on a grand scale or simply living well, these rooms offer something no new-build can reproduce and no amount of money can buy. This house oozes character. And thanks to the modern heating system installed throughout, it is superbly cool in the summer and pleasantly warm and comfortable through the seasons, never losing a note of its period charm. The kitchen and dining area are a true space of comfort and delight. Exceptionally generous in scale, it offers a stunning range of solid wood warm-toned cabinetry, dark granite worktops and a range with an extractor hood above. The original terrazzo floor extends throughout the ground, lending enormous character underfoot. Original leaded and stained-glass windows flood the room with coloured light, while bi-fold doors open directly onto the garden, creating a space that flows beautifully between inside and outside. There is ample space for a large dining table and informal seating, making it as much a family room as a kitchen. A large utility room leads directly, originally the staff quarters, with its own secondary staircase still intact, offering real flexibility for multigenerational living or simply a nod to the history beneath your feet. The ground floor houses five bedrooms, all of generous proportions. Two have en-suite facilities, both with underfloor heating, one with a stylish Italian shower. The family bathroom perfectly complements the house’s period character. The principal bedroom benefits from its own garden-viewing bay window above the reception room below, flooding the space with light, and is served by a very large en-suite bathroom. On the second floor, possibilities open up further. A versatile room, currently configured as an office or additional bedroom, leads to a large loft ready for conversion. In the hands of a visionary buyer, the entire upper floor could become a private hotel-quality principal suite, a games room or a creative studio. The ceiling height, the centrality of the space and existing access make this one of the most exciting opportunities the house offers. Outside, the intrigue is extraordinary for this location. Mature trees, established planting and manicured lawns surround the property, offering total privacy and a sense of isolation that belies the fact you are just moments from all this exceptional address has to offer. A dedicated garden annexe currently serves as a private gym. The gardens also benefit from an external WC and a separate external service room used for garden maintenance and storage. The annexe above the garage is a truly independent living space with its own gas and electricity meters and boiler system. Comprising a bedroom, living room, kitchen and bathroom, it is ideal for extended family, a live-in carer, guests or as a generating income opportunity. A garage with remote-controlled doors and an adjacent carport complete this outstanding collection of outbuildings. The house is further protected by a silent panic alarm connected directly to the police, providing an exceptional level of security and peace of mind for the whole family. Right opposite the property lies one of the region’s most valuable assets. The University of Leicester Botanic Garden is a destination in itself, attracting visitors from across the county and beyond to explore 16 acres of stunning grounds that change with the seasons. Having this on your doorstep, watching it bloom and transform in spring, summer, autumn and winter, is one of those quiet privileges that only the truly fortunate who live here fully appreciate. Victoria Park is also nearby, offering open green spaces, weekend leisure and a wonderful sense of space. Glebe Road sits at the heart of Oadby, one of the East Midlands’ most prestigious residential addresses. It is an area defined by tree-lined avenues, fine period architecture and a strong, established community that has long drawn professionals, academics and families who value both quality of life and convenience. For families with children, the educational offering in this area is exceptional. Leicester High School for Girls, Leicester Grammar School and Stoneygate School are all easily accessible, as well as several excellent state schools, making this one of the region’s most sought-after sectors.

Essentially, Ashby Parva is geographically to the south-east of a triangle of motorway routes. It is west of the M1, with the M6 and M69 providing the potential for speedier travel by road from this central but rural, Midland location. There are two railway stations within easy reach at Rugby and Market Harborough, with regular high speed trains to London Euston and St. Pancras taking a little over one hour. The nearest airports are East Midlands, Birmingham and Coventry. In times past, the Domesday Book of 1086 records Parva Essebi, which is how Ashby Parva was identified. This name means a small settlement or farm by ash trees in the east. In 1277 it was made up of four separate manors and has mention of the unruly behaviour of parliamentary troops during the English Civil War. The local Anglican church of St Peter’s is a grade 11 listed building and can boast of a 19th century rector named William Clement Ley, who with the aid of his Nephoscope became the first man to identify and measure what is now known as the Jet Stream. He was known locally as the ‘weather prophet’ and people came from far and wide to read his weather forecast pinned on the church gates.Today, the village is still basically a linear settlement along a twisting main street surrounded by pastureland. There are fine examples of houses – once thatch rooves but now Swithland slate – from several centuries ago. Timber framed and red brick houses can be seen, with evidence of farms and back yards of river cobbles. The village hall is the principal village community building holding regular activities, events and festivals for all ages, abilities and interests. The inclusivity is promoted through such things as the scarecrow festival, pantomimes, Christmas fayres and the annual summer show. It also runs a community café. A good starting point for those new to the area would be to investigate ashbyparva.net/stoppress.htm.This is a helpful aid giving information relating to local medical services, dental practices and even refuse collection dates.The site /Leicestershire/Ashby-Parva has information about local food producers including farm shops and markets. There is not a local primary school in Ashby Parva but there is St Mary’s Church of England Primary School in Bitteswell, Dunton Bassett Primary and Lutterworth College for older students. The Office for Standards in Education - OFSTED – is best researched to provide a comprehensive review of currently rated standards of practice within all educational establishments in the locality.A Note From Our Vendor - When finalising our plans for the development of 1 Lammas, we did so with the objective of creating an extended, modern, ecological friendly property to present significant, flexible, and usable living space. We also wanted to ensure the next owners, had the opportunity to add their own unique requirements into their new home. Consequently, we have taken a number of carefully considered steps to achieve our objectives. First, we were particularly keen to incorporate the latest renewable energy efficient technology to give both economic and aesthetic benefit. This has been achieved by the inclusion of solar panels, an air source heat pump and underfloor heating throughout. All of which work amazingly to provide a warm, cozy and balanced feel throughout the home which has been built to the latest building standards focussed on creating heat retention and low running costs. Economically, the system performs exceptionally well, and we have illustrations available to show how the system creates significant savings in energy consumption endorsed by the EPC rating of B which only 3% of existing dwellings in the UK benefit from. Aesthetically, rather than mounting the solar panels on top of the roof tiles, we have integrated them flush to the roof line giving an unobtrusive view from the ground. Internally, having underfloor heating means that all walls benefit from being free from radiators thereby giving total freedom when considering the layout of rooms. Although not an entirely new property, we have been keen to provide 1 Lammas as virtually a blank canvass as per a new build. However, we are not leaving it there, and we have left scope for discussions on how we can help incorporate your personal choices into areas such as the flooring in the kitchen/dayroom/diner, garden layout and similar requirements prior to moving in.Disclaimer:Important Information:Property Particulars: Although we endeavor to ensure the accuracy of property details we have not tested any services, equipment or fixtures and fittings.

Kupnja nekretnine - Calm and imposing Along Nock Verges, in the charming Leicestershire village of Stoney Stanton, The Old Rectory is tucked away from passing traffic by being located off a cul-de-sac. It is within the boundaries of a walled garden, boarded by mature trees, flower beds and lawn. Originally designed in the 19th century by renowned architect Henry Goddard, this impressive Victorian period property has quintessentially English country house characteristics and as its name suggests, has been intrinsically linked to the history of the similarly Grade II listed parish church, St Michael’s. It has been carefully maintained to retain its distinctly traditional place in the heart of the village and was once the home of a former Chancellor to the Exchequer. The Old Rectory is an imposing listed residence while being eminently a wonderful family home. This is a sumptuous house of quality and stature, which richly complements its surroundings and is within walking distance of the many local amenities that enrich the experience of living in such a central location. Here, we have a beautifully positioned detached property with six generous bedrooms - one with en-suite facilities – set amidst its private plot measuring .69 of an acre, with established and landscaped grounds. Its striking silhouette is outlined with twin-flue end chimney stacks and intersecting hip and valley rooves, while classically proportioned sash style windows headed by gables present a grand, bespoke property of size and refinement. Filled with beautiful features from its date of original construction, on the ground floor level there are four reception rooms: a study, lounge, dining room and old school room. To the rear of the house, a large breakfast kitchen is complimented with a utility room. The original open-string staircase leading from the adjoining reception hall, ascends to the first-floor landing, bedrooms and bathing facilities: a family bathroom with separate toilet and a Jack and Jill bathroom. The property has gardens carefully planted to create privacy, described by the present owners as an ‘oasis’. Within the grounds there are separate buildings stables, stores and the old coach house. Vehicular or equine entrances There are two entrances. From Nock Verges, entry to the property is through large wrought iron gates and over cobbles that sweep towards the house along a shingled driveway leading to a large area for turning or parking. It is lined with planted beds of mature shrubs, hedges and bordering lawned sections of the grounds, where stately trees create an impression of permanence and classical style. A second entrance is from Church Lane, and double wooden gates open to the collection of outbuildings. The largest is a two-storey building divided into stables with a staircase leading to an ample loft store. A double gated coach house is a substantial structure and accumulatively they provide covered space, storage and functionality, with the possibility of repurposing to fulfil the needs of the owner. Fitted with lighting and power sockets and a water supply, they have the potential to become a garage or workshop. The gardens surrounding the house complement the building beautifully. There are open spaces for children to play, a courtyard, hard landscaped walls, patios and walkways, and even a two-storey Wendy house for the young at heart. At every turn the vista opens to reveal other seasonal treasure, with a vast array of plants, trees, bulbs and shrubs. Over the threshold The house is built in red brick and has a Welsh slate and tile roof with a symmetrical three bay entrance in Tudor Revival style. Canted bay windows on either side of the front door, are framed by an arched porch with overhead light. Further sash windows on the floor above are those from – left to right - master bedroom, landing and first of four bedrooms in parallel. In essence, there are twin wings with a central entrance hall dividing the reception rooms. Entry from the drive establishes the overriding sense of welcome and charm that well maintained bespoke, period homes generate. From the porch and into the tiled hall, the interior standard is established. Decorative features complimenting the plainly painted high ceiling walls include six panelled doors framed by broad architraves, plaster coving and deep skirting boards. The carpeted staircase has a square newel post, plain balustrades and sweeps to the upper floor landing, turning gradually without a half-landing. Natural light floods down onto it from a skylight above. It is an elegant introduction to a delightful property that has well served as a home for nearly two hundred years. The hall and corresponding reception rooms have been decorated and accessorised with high-quality fixtures, fittings and befitting design elements. This standard will be exhibited throughout the property, as each room is similarly decorated to an extremely high level of presentation. All blinds and curtains are included within the sale.The reception rooms The hall has doors to each room on the ground floor apart from the utility room, accessible from the kitchen and the former school room. Presently used as a study, the first reception room on the left has an open fireplace with a cast iron inset, canted bay window and is carpeted. Across the hall, the grand sitting room has two fireplaces and two canted bay windows, the largest being from the late nineteenth century with shutters and French windows. With dual perspectives, this spacious room has wall lights and is also carpeted. The downstairs floor tiled cloakroom is beautifully fitted with Victorian style sanitaryware in white porcelain consisting of a high-level cistern and pull chain, vanity basin and integral storage. All sanitary fixtures and fittings within The Old Rectory are presented and maintained to a high standard. This is the first of four bathing facilities that have been supplied and equipped with stylish and often contemporary components offering an en-suite, family shower room and a Jack and Jill bathroom. Kitchen, dining and utility Within the generous breakfast kitchen, there is a suitable area for an informal arrangement of table and chairs from which to enjoy the views of the garden through double glass doors, beneath lowered pendant light fixtures. Shaker style cabinetry in contrasting grey and white provides a generous amount of display space and storage, with trellised finishes and metro tiling separating wall and floor units. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, refrigerator, cooker, oven, extractor fan and hob. A double stainless steel sink unit makes good use of the view through the window overlooking the courtyard. The utility room has provision for a vented tumble dryer and washing machine and is accessible through the old school room. The kitchen and utility room have been fitted with floor tiles. The dining room can be entered from the kitchen or from the hall. It has a distinctive stop-chamfered blackened beam and a six-light Gothic window which is listed as being of an earlier origin than The Old Rectory. This room has an open fireplace and an integrated cupboard and easily accommodates a table suitable for formal entertaining. Lastly, as previously mentioned, the utility room is entered from the kitchen via a lobby and the old school room. This has a rear exit, presumably allowing those who had completed their lessons, the freedom of the outside rear garden without having to enter the larger rooms at the formal end of the original rectory. Today, present owners have the luxury of using it for multiple purposes, whether for sports equipment, a children’s play area or conversion into a ground floor bedroom it is a valuable asset to have possibilities and options without having to extend. There is also a boot room on the exterior wall of the house, only accessible from outside.Double bedrooms as standard The first floor has six bedrooms-the master with an en-suite- a family shower room and a Jack and Jill bathroom. Each bedroom is quite distinctive, but they share vital characteristics: they are all spacious, well maintained and carefully designed to cater generously for their occupants. All of them have been individually decorated, some with feature wall paper, coordinating carpets or polished floorboards and have beautiful views overlooking the grounds. There are two bedrooms with en-suite style bathing facilities as the Jack and Jill bathroom can be locked to maintain independence. It comprises of a Victorian styled sink unit, toilet, heated towel rail, bidet and bath. Wall tiling and floor coverings complete the stylish interior spaces, and this is mirrored in the second en-suite which also has a characterful roll top bath but styled in a contemporary fashion. All sanitary fixtures and fittings in all the facilities in The Old Rectory have been tastefully selected with white suites, fitted and maintained to high specifications. They are often bespoke and while similar in quality, all offer individuality that befits their surroundings. In a similar vein, tiling to walls and floors, lighting and heating fixtures are of a high standard. And finally The Old Rectory served a purpose within the village of Stoney Stanton and was never just a ‘big house’ it was a small institution. Echoes of its past remain in the very name of the ‘old school room’ and there must have been many meetings, church fetes and social gatherings within its walls and garden. Fundamentally it was and remains, a special home and since being built, new owners have continued to benefit from original characteristics, while adding sympathetic features of their time of ownership to enhance and improve the property. The opportunity has now arisen for the next chapter of its story to be written!LOCALITY Stoney Stanton LE9 Stoney Stanton is a village in the Blaby district of the central English Midlands County of Leicestershire. It is only 10 miles from Leicester’s city centre, 5 miles east of Hinckley and 4 miles west of Narborough. In this location, many major road, rail and air links are conveniently accessible.

Operational train stations can be found at Narborough, Hinckley and Leicester, with trains running regularly to London St Pancras International. The bustling village has existed for centuries, being mentioned in the Domesday survey of 1086 as ‘Stantone’ and consisted then of agricultural, meadow and woodland. It later became industrially famous for the valuable stone and gravel quarried from Carey, Clint and Lanes Hills. The pits that remain have been filled with water and provide a haven for wildlife and a water sports and scuba diving centre known as Stoney Cove. This large village continues to appeal to the community through a wide selection of sporting clubs such as golf, cricket, tennis, bowls and football, and an array of education and leisure amenities, including the David Lloyd Leisure Club with swimming pools, Hinckley Leisure Centre and Enderby Leisure Centre with golf club.

Kupnja nekretnine - Calm and impressive along Nock Verges, in the charming village of Stoney Stanton in Leicestershire, The Old Rectory is tucked away from through traffic by a cul-de-sac. It sits within the bounds of a walled garden, bordered by mature trees, borders of flowers and lawn. Originally designed in the 19th century by the renowned architect Henry Goddard, this imposing Victorian-era property features quintessential English country house characteristics and, as the name suggests, is intrinsically tied to the history of the parish church, St Michael’s, which is Grade II listed. It has been carefully maintained to preserve its decidedly traditional place at the heart of the village and was once the home of a former Chancellor of the Exchequer. The Old Rectory is a substantial Grade II listed residence that remains a wonderful family home. It is a sumptuous, high-quality prestige house that richly complements its surroundings and is within walking distance of the many local amenities that enhance living in such a central location. Here we have a beautifully situated detached property on a private 0.69 acre plot, with landscaped and well-planned grounds, six generous bedrooms – including one with an en-suite – arranged on its private grounds. Its striking silhouette is framed by twin inglenook chimneys and hip- and valley-roof lines, while traditional proportioned sash windows with gables give a grand, bespoke property in size and refinement. Filled with period features from its original construction, on the ground floor there are four reception rooms: a study, a sitting room, a dining room and an old schoolroom. At the rear of the house, a large breakfast kitchen is complemented by a utility room. The original row-style staircase leading to the adjacent reception hall rises to the first-floor landing, bedrooms and bathroom facilities: a family bathroom with separate W.C. and a Jack and Jill bathroom. The property has maturely planted gardens to create privacy, described by the current owners as an “oasis.” Within the estate are detached buildings: stables, stores and the former car showroom. Vehicle or equine accessThere are two entrances. From Nock Verges, access to the property is via large wrought-iron gates and gravel extending to the house along a shingle driveway leading to a spacious turning/parking area. It is lined with mature shrub borders, hedges and adjoining lawn, where majestic trees convey a sense of permanence and classic style. A second entrance comes from Church Lane, and double wooden gates open onto the group of outbuildings. The largest is a two-storey building divided into stables with stairs to a sizeable mezzanine store. A double-gated carport is a substantial structure and, as a whole, provides covered space, storage and functionality, with the potential to be repurposed to meet the owner’s needs. Equipped with lighting, sockets and a water supply, they could become a garage or workshop. The gardens surrounding the house beautifully complement the building. There are open spaces for children to play, a court, hard landscaping borders, patios and pathways, and even a two-storey Wendy house for the young at heart. At every turn, the view opens to reveal further seasonal treasures, with a wide variety of plants, trees, bulbs and shrubs. Above the threshold, the house is built in red brick with a Welsh slate and tile roof, featuring a symmetrical three-bay Tudor Revival style entrance. Sloping bay windows on either side of the front door are framed by a vaulted porch with ceiling lighting. Other upper-floor sash windows belong to the master bedroom, the landing and the first of the four parallel bedrooms. Essentially there are two mirrored wings with a central hall dividing the reception rooms. The drive-in entry sets the primal sense of welcome and charm that well-maintained period homes convey on bespoke terms. From the porch to the tiled hall, the interior standard is established. Decorative elements complementing tall ceilings with simple painted plaster provide six panelled doors framed by wide architraves, plaster surrounds and deep skirting boards. The carpeted winder staircase has a square newel, simple balustrades and swept handrails leading to the upper landing with no half-landing. Natural light floods in from a dormer above. It is an elegant introduction to a charming property that has served as a home for almost two centuries. The hall and corresponding reception rooms have been styled and equipped with high-quality fittings and design accents. This standard will be reflected throughout the building, each room finished with a similar high level of presentation. All blinds and curtains are included in the sale. The reception rooms The hall opens to doors leading to each downstairs room, except the utility room, which is accessed from the kitchen and the old schoolroom. Currently used as an office, the first reception room on the left has an open fireplace with a cast-iron insert, a bay window and carpet. Across the corridor, the grand sitting room has two fireplaces and two bay windows, the larger dating to the late Victorian era, with shutters and French windows. With its two aspects, this spacious room is fitted with wall lights and also carpeted. The ground-floor cloakroom is beautifully equipped with Victorian-style white porcelain sanitary ware, including a high-level cistern and pull-chain, a vanity basin and built-in storage. All sanitaryware and fittings of the Old Rectory are presented and maintained to high standards. It is the first of four bathrooms provided and equipped with elegant, often contemporary elements, offering an en-suite bathroom, a family bathroom and a Jack and Jill bathroom. Kitchen, dining and utilities Inside the generous breakfast kitchen there is a space suitable for an informal arrangement of table and chairs from which to enjoy views over the garden through double glazed doors, beneath pendant lighting. The grey and white shaker-style units provide ample display and storage space, with grid detailing and metro-tile splashbacks. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, fridge, cooker, oven, extractor and a hob. A twin stainless-steel sink makes good use of the view through the window looking out to the courtyard. The utility room houses a vented tumble dryer and a washing machine, accessed via the old schoolroom. The kitchen and utility have been laid with floor tiles. The dining room is accessible from the kitchen or the hallway. It has a distinctive soot-blackened ceiling beam and a six-light Gothic window, listed as pre-dating the Old Rectory. This room has an open fireplace and a built-in cupboard, and can easily accommodate a table suitable for formal entertaining. Finally, as mentioned, the utility room is accessible from the kitchen via a hallway and the old schoolroom. It has an outside rear exit, presumably enabling those who had finished their lessons to enjoy the freedom of the rear garden without entering the formal rooms at the far end of the original rectory. Today, the current owners have the luxury of using it for multiple purposes, whether for sports equipment, a children's play area or conversion to a ground-floor bedroom. It is a valuable asset to have options without needing to extend. There is also a boot room on the exterior wall of the house, accessible only from the outside. Double bedrooms as standard The ground floor houses six bedrooms: the master with an en-suite – a family bathroom and a Jack and Jill bathroom. Each bedroom is distinctive, but they share key features: they are all spacious, well-maintained and thoughtfully designed to comfortably accommodate their occupants. All have been individually decorated, some with feature wallpaper, matching carpets or polished floorboards, and offer wonderful views over the park. There are two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, as the Jack and Jill bathroom can be locked to preserve independence. It includes a Victorian-style basin, W.C., heated towel rail, bidet and a bathtub. Wall and floor tiling and fittings complete the elegant interior spaces, as reflected in the second en-suite which also features a full of character yet contemporary-styled shower room. All sanitaryware and fittings in all Old Rectory facilities have been carefully selected with white suites, fitted and maintained to high specifications. They are often bespoke and, while of similar quality, each offers individuality suited to its environment. In the same vein, the wall and floor tiling, lighting and heating are of high quality. Finally, the Old Rectory has served a role in the village of Stoney Stanton and has never been merely a “big house”; it was a small institution. Echoes of its past remain in the very name “the Old Schoolroom,” and there must have been many church gatherings and social events inside its walls and grounds. Fundamentally, it was and remains a special home, and since its construction new owners have continued to benefit from the original features while adding charming attributes to suit their ownership period to enhance and improve the property. The opportunity has now arisen to write the next chapter in its history! LOCATION Stoney Stanton LE9 Stoney Stanton is a village in the Blaby district of the English Midlands county of Leicestershire. It is only about 10 miles from Leicester city centre, 5 miles east of Hinckley and 4 miles west of Narborough. At this location, many major road, rail and air links are easily accessible.

The bustling village has existed for centuries, first mentioned in the Domesday survey of 1086 as “Stantone,” then comprising agricultural areas, meadows and woods. It later became industrially famous for the valuable stone and gravel extracted from Carey, Clint and Lanes Hills. The pits that remain have filled with water and provide a haven for wildlife as well as a water-sports and scuba diving centre called Stoney Cove. This large village continues to attract the community with a wide range of sports clubs such as golf, cricket, tennis, bowling and football, as well as a range of educational and leisure facilities, including the David Lloyd Leisure Club with pools, Hinckley Leisure Centre and Enderby Leisure Centre with golf club.

There are several local pubs – The Blue Bell Inn, Bull’s Head and Star Inn – shops and restaurants – a fish and chips shop, an Indian and Chinese restaurant with a takeaway, as well as a pizzeria – cafés and parks, with an outdoor gym, a children's play area and a skate park. Stoney Stanton has services and groceries: a ironmonger, a hairdresser, a barber and an aesthetician. There is a local post office, and a public library operates in the small shopping area of St Michael’s. A medical centre, a pharmacy, opticians and dentists are also conveniently accessible on foot from the village centre.

Kupnja nekretnine - Contemporary notably Located in the village of Cosby, in the southern part of Leicestershire, this house, set on a third of an acre, has been redesigned to maximise its potential. With over 3,000 square feet of interior space, it easily meets contemporary expectations for a bespoke executive property. Originally built in the 1940s, it has been the current owner’s project for ten years, with a complete renovation and an extension started in October 2020 and full wiring in 2023. The resulting transformation is an exceptional detached home that, with many other features, offers three reception rooms, a spacious kitchen and breakfast area, and a guest suite on the ground floor, with five large double bedrooms on the first floor. Established residential area The house is in a peaceful residential district with equally unique and characterful properties, benefiting from light traffic thanks to a cul-de-sac. Its curb appeal is immediate. It is bordered by an open-plan paved landscape, discreet planting and a wide driveway that winds up to the front and side of the property. Undoubtedly a statement property. Notable features include a cross-gabled and valley roof arrangement, with dormers and an impressive apex window. The anthracite window frames and white-rendered walls create expectations of a modern interior, as does everything on the exterior—including the new roof with replacement façades, soffits and gutters—giving a sense of clean, structural lines. This is reinforced by the symmetry of the open porch protecting a composite front door, matched by a pair of translucent glass panels. Vehicle access is unrestricted and there is a large number of parking spaces. An integrated single garage sits immediately to the right of the property, and access to the main house can be gained from here, via a ground-floor bathroom. The garage is equipped with ceiling lighting, a storage cupboard and electricity. Ground floor tour The house has been fully renovated and extended to prioritise light, ventilation and space. From the first step over the threshold, the interior structural elements and décor reflect simplicity and intrinsic beauty through the choice of textures, fittings and layouts. It is a generous property that reflects minimalism, excellent design and high-quality choices as standard. The residence is, in every respect, bright. Open sightlines and a neutral colour palette provide an interior that serves as a model for contemporary, free-flowing living, with the entrance hall as the central focal point. The magnificent apex window and the vaulted ceiling of the living area are a major feature. It brings warmth, light and a sense of height that invites the visitor to look up and admire the staircase and the white balustrade gallery with carpet. This executive home has been renovated with meticulous detail and particular attention to fittings and furnishings. The property is arranged throughout with doors, skirting boards, switches and LED mood lighting to match. Recessed blinds cover most windows, and most can be operated remotely. In the hall, deep-set windows sit either side of the entrance. Open-plan living space optimized The open-plan kitchen/diner is located to the right and covers almost a third of the ground-floor interior space. Clad in large porcelain tiles, it is a bright, double-sided space that incorporates many elegant features and flows seamlessly from one area to another. From the breakfast area, the window looks to the front. It is currently used as an informal relaxation space, but whatever its use, it is visible and allows easy conversation with those in the kitchen. The versatility of this space is an asset. Beyond, the kitchen is well equipped with wall units and soft-close doors on the floor, a large worktop on one wall and an island with sink and three USB points integrated. A large lantern skylight lets light flood the food prep area and integrated appliances, including a microwave, a separate AEG oven, a food warming drawer, wine coolers, a fridge, an induction hob with extractor and a Quooker tap. Two large pull-out waste bins, a dishwasher and tall under-counter storage cupboards complete the fully equipped kitchen, installed in 2023. The island also has space for stools, and who wouldn’t want to sit in such a wonderful room and admire the view through the bi-fold doors? They fold back to allow the raised terrace to become an extension of the room. Ideal for entertaining and providing direct access to the landscaped private garden. A landscaped garden The garden continues the open-plan concept. It is a secluded, well-kept garden featuring terraces, shrubs, planted borders, hedges and trees. A sheltered summer house and a greenhouse with raised beds will interest keen gardeners, while a large lawn area is perfect for children to play safely. This is achieved through clever, practical design that integrates these charming outdoor spaces to maximise space for everyday living or special entertaining occasions. Reception rooms The pantry and laundry are to the right of the kitchen. With extra storage, a worktop and sink, there is space for a washing machine and vented tumble dryer. The utility room gives access to the garden and is next to a room currently used as an office. It has two windows overlooking the rear garden. Leaving this room and returning to the kitchen, a boot room sits discreetly in the hall, then a corridor links the other reception rooms on the ground floor and the guest suite. Both reception rooms are spacious, easily accommodating different furniture and with french doors opening onto the terrace. The living room is particularly bright, with two large panoramic windows. It is carpeted and equipped with matched curtains and blinds. Similarly, the living room has curtains. This room has a wood-effect laminate floor and a large fireplace, featuring a slate surround, a oak mantle and a black gas fire. The reception rooms share an internal window. The guest suite and ground-floor bedrooms Before going up to the first floor, the ground floor has a valuable feature to inspect. A large carpeted bedroom with a separate bathroom. These facilities with an en-suite bathroom include a walk-in shower, toilet, bidet, basin and a ceiling-mounted accessible bath. It is perfectly private as a guest suite or for a family member requiring ground-floor accommodation.

The bedrooms have televisions and power points and three of the largest en-suite bathrooms feature walk-in showers, toilets and dressing tables. The master suite has a dressing room, while others have built-in wardrobes. Windows have been fitted with a combination of curtains and blinds, some remote-controlled.

It is connected to a Worcester boiler recently installed. The boiler also feeds underfloor heating in the kitchen. All installed in 2023. LOCATION Cosby LE9 Cosby is a highly sought-after village, ideally located in the south of Leicestershire, benefiting from all the advantages of rural living while being close to the country’s motorway and rail networks. Administered by Blaby District Council, the nearest large towns include Whetstone, Blaby, Wigston and Oadby. It is only 7 miles from Leicester city centre, with its multicultural restaurants, theatres, museums, galleries, thriving shops and attractions such as the King Richard III exhibition. From Cosby, the M1 is accessible at junction 21, south near Lutterworth and junction 20. The A426 is the main route to Lutterworth, with Rugby stations for links to Birmingham and Narborough for links to Leicester, with regular trains to London St Pancras International. East Midlands Airport (EMA) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) are the closest airports. Cosby, or “Cassebi,” was first mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, but since the Fosse Way bounds the parish to the north, it may well have been a settlement in the past, with a notable stream running through it. St Michael and All Angels church dates from the 14th century and the village centre includes a selection of buildings, including a cruck-framed barn, which together commemorate the centuries of history, including the development of housing. The original settlement was based on the open-field farming system prior to the Norman Conquest. In 1767, the Enclosure Act compelled the largely agricultural community to invest in the industrial economy, notably framework knitting, then boot and shoe manufacturing. Today, the lively village hosts a Yarn Bomb summer event that recalls its heritage and attracts many visitors. Although it has existed for centuries, this large village continues to charm the community with a wide range of sports, education and leisure facilities, including a variety of shops, a library, cafés (including a popular fish-and-chips shop), as well as parks and a golf course. For more details, this site may help: For primary education, Cosby has its own school: Cosby Primary School. A private school is within walking distance of the property. A broader secondary education is available at Countesthorpe, Lutterworth or Leicester Grammar.

Kupnja nekretnine - Stately and tranquil Within the conservation area of Church Lane, in the charming Leicestershire village of Desford, The Old Rectory is located behind an imposing brick wall, sitting in private grounds boarded by mature trees and gardens.

Desford LE9 Desford is a village situated in the south-west of Leicestershire, benefitting from all the merits of its countryside location while also being close to motorway and rail networks that crisscross this east Midlands region. It is only seven miles west from Leicester’s city centre, with its multi-cultural restaurants, theatres, museums, galleries, rich retail selection and attractions such as the King Richard III exhibition. From Desford, the closest motorway links are the M1 and M69 toward Enderby. There are train stations at Rugby for links to Birmingham and Narborough for links to Leicester, with trains running regularly from there to London St Pancras International. East Midlands Airport (EMB) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) are the closest airports. Desford or ‘Deor’s Ford’ was first recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 but is possibly of Anglo-Saxon origin, being based on a significant hill 400 feet above sea level. St Martin’s parish church dates from the late thirteenth century and the village centre has a selection of Grade II listed buildings including a timber framed manor house and service buildings from the 1600’s. The Baptist Church on Chapel Lane was constructed in 1866. All combine to mark the centuries that have passed in Desford, including the present development of homes. The original settlement predates the Norman Conquest. In one of many Enclosure Acts of the eighteenth century the predominant farming community were forced to become invested with industrial economics and then, with the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, came the railway. A railway station was built linking established lines to larger towns and cities. It was closed to passengers in 1964 and then to freight in 1984. A half winding wheel on Lindridge Lane is a permanent reminder of the era and today Caterpillar Inc. are a significant employer in the area, having repurposed the old Desford aerodrome. Today, the bustling village is part of the Harborough district of Leicestershire and is within a half hour drive of Enderby, Kirby Muxloe, Market Bosworth and Kirkby Mallory. Although it has existed for centuries, this large village continues to appeal to the community through a wide selection of sport, (Sport in Desford Clubhouse with new Scout hut and tennis courts) education and leisure amenities. There is an array of shops, a library, cafes, a pharmacy and parks. Public houses include The Lancaster close to the old railway station and the Bluebell Inn in the village centre.

Kupnja nekretnine - Majestic and tranquil In the Church Lane conservation area, in the charming village of Desford, Leicestershire, The Old Rectory sits behind an imposing brick wall, within a private estate bordered by mature trees and gardens. Built originally in the 18th century, this impressive period property has undergone Edwardian renovations and, as the name suggests, is inherently linked to the history of its neighbor, St Martin’s parish church. The house and its grounds have hosted church fêtes and social gatherings for decades. In 1981 it became a private residence, and the current owners have lived there since 2016, continuing to preserve original features and to add sympathetic 21st-century touches to enhance and improve the property. It is ideally located in the centre and is a beautifully situated detached property with five generous bedrooms – two with en-suite bathrooms – set on a 1.26-acre plot.

Desford LE9 Desford is a village in south-west Leicestershire, offering the advantages of a rural setting while being close to the motorway and rail networks that traverse this East Midlands region. It lies seven miles west of central Leicester, with its multicultural restaurants, theatres, museums, galleries, thriving shops and attractions such as the King Richard III exhibition. From Desford, the nearest motorway connections are the M1 and M69 leading toward Enderby. There are stations at Rugby for Birmingham connections and Narborough for Leicester connections, with trains running regularly from there to London St Pancras International. East Midlands Airport (EMA) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) are the closest airports. Desford, or “ford crossing of Deor,” was first mentioned in the 1086 Domesday Book but is possibly of Anglo-Saxon origin, built on a prominent hill at 400 feet above sea level. The parish church of St Martin dates from the late 13th century and the village centre features a selection of Grade II listed buildings, including a timber-framed manor house and 17th-century service buildings. Chapel Lane Baptist Church was built in 1866. All combine to mark the centuries Desford has passed through, including the current development of houses. The original establishment predates the Norman conquest. In one of the many 18th-century enclosure acts, the dominant farming community was compelled to invest in industrial manufacturing, and with the dawn of the Industrial Revolution came the railway. A rail station was built linking established lines to larger towns and cities. It closed to passengers in 1964 and to freight in 1984. A turning wheel on Lindridge Lane keeps recalling this era and today Caterpillar Inc. is a major employer in the area, having repurposed the old Desford aerodrome. Today, this vibrant village is part of the Harborough district in Leicestershire and lies within a half-hour drive of Enderby, Kirby Muxloe, Market Bosworth and Kirkby Mallory. Although it has existed for centuries, this large village continues to attract the community with a wide range of sports (Desford Clubhouse with a new scout hut and tennis courts), education and leisure. There are a variety of shops, a library, cafes, a pharmacy and parks. The pubs include The Lancaster, near the old station, and the Bluebell Inn in the village centre.

Kupnja nekretnine - Notably contemporary Located in the village of Cosby, in the south of Leicestershire, this house, situated on a one-third acre plot, has been redesigned to maximise its potential. With more than 3,000 square feet of interior space, it easily meets modern expectations for a bespoke executive property. Originally built in the 1940s, it has been the project of the current owner for ten years, with a full renovation and extension starting in October 2020 and complete wiring in 2023. The resulting transformation is an exceptional detached home which, with many other features, offers three reception rooms, a spacious kitchen and breakfast area, and a guest suite on the ground floor with five large double bedrooms upstairs. Established residential area The property sits in a peaceful residential neighbourhood of equally unique and characterful homes, benefiting from light traffic at the end of a cul-de-sac. Its fringe appeal is immediate. It is bordered by a low-maintenance, open-plan paved area, discreet planting and a broad driveway that winds to the front and side. It is undoubtedly a statement property. Notable features include a cross-gabled and valley roof that interlocks and layers, with dormers and an impressive apex window. The anthracite window frames and white rendered walls create expectations of a modern interior, as everything outside — including the new roof with replacement cladding, soffits and gutters — gives the impression of clean, structured lines. This is reinforced by the symmetry of the open porch, protecting a composite front door, paired with a pair of translucent glass panels. Vehicle access is unrestricted and there are a large number of parking spaces. An integrated single garage sits immediately to the right of the property with access to the main house via a ground-floor bathroom. The garage is fitted with ceiling lighting, a storage cupboard and electricity. Ground floor tour The house has been fully renovated and extended to prioritise light, ventilation and space. From the first step over the threshold, the internal structural elements and decoration speak of simplicity and intrinsic beauty through the choice of textures, fittings and layouts. It is a generous property that reflects minimalism, excellent design and high-quality choices as standard. The residence is, in every respect, open-plan. Clear sightlines and a neutral colour palette provide an interior that serves as a template for modern, free-flow living, with the central hub being the entrance hall. The stunning apex window and the vaulted ceiling of the reception room are a major feature. They bring warmth, light and an elevated space that invites the visitor to look up and admire the staircase and the white balustrade gallery with carpet. This executive home has been renovated with meticulous attention to detail and with a focus on fittings and finishes. The property is cohesively appointed throughout with doors, skirtings, light switches and LED mood lighting coordinated. Recessed blinds cover most windows, most operable remotely. In the hall, deep-set windows flank the entrance. Open-plan living spaces The dining-kitchen area to the right covers nearly a third of the ground floor interior space. It is finished with large porcelain tiles and is a bright, double-faced, expansive room that integrates numerous elegant elements, flowing seamlessly from one area to another. From the breakfast room, the window looks to the front. It is currently used as a casual lounge space, but whatever its use, it is visible and facilitates conversation with those in the kitchen. The versatility of this space is an asset. Beyond, the kitchen is well-equipped with wall units and soft-close drawers at floor level, generous worktops along one wall, and a central island with sink and three USB ports integrated. A large lantern skylight floods the preparation area and appliances, including a microwave oven, a separate AEG oven, a heated food drawer, wine chiller, a fridge, an induction hob with extractor and Quooker tap. Two large waste pull-out drawers, a dishwasher and substantial under-counter storage cupboards complete the fully equipped kitchen, recently installed in 2023. The island also provides space for seating, and who wouldn’t want to sit in such a wonderful room and admire the view through the bi-fold doors? They fold back to allow the raised terrace to become an extension of the room. It is ideal for entertaining and provides immediate access to the private landscaped garden. A landscaped garden The garden continues the open-plan design. It is a secluded, well-maintained garden featuring terraces, shrubs, planted beds, hedges and trees. A sheltered summer house and a glasshouse with raised beds appeal to keen gardeners, while a large lawn area is perfect for children to play safely. It is through smart, practical design that these charming outdoor spaces are perfectly integrated to maximise space for daily living or special entertaining occasions. Reception rooms The pantry and laundry are to the right of the kitchen. With additional storage, a worktop and sink, there is space for a washing machine and vented tumble dryer. The utility room gives access to the garden and is adjacent to a room currently used as an office. It has two windows overlooking the rear garden. Leaving this room and returning to the kitchen, a boot room sits discreetly in the hall, then a corridor links the other reception rooms on the ground floor and the guest suite.

LOCATION Cosby LE9 Cosby is a highly sought-after village in the southern Leicestershire region, benefiting from the advantages of its rural setting while being close to national rail and road networks. Administered by Blaby District Council, nearby towns include Whetstone, Blaby, Wigston and Oadby. It lies only 7 miles from central Leicester, with its multicultural restaurants, theatres, museums, galleries, diverse shopping and attractions such as the Richard III exhibition. From Cosby, the M1 is accessible at junction 21, south near Lutterworth and junction 20. The A426 is the main route to Lutterworth, with rail links at Rugby to Birmingham and Narborough to Leicester, with trains running regularly to London St Pancras International. East Midlands Airport (EMA) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) are the nearest airports. Cosby, or “Cassebi,” was first mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, but given that Fosse Way limits the parish to the north, it may well have been a settlement in the past, with a notable brook running through it. The parish church of St Michael and All Angels dates from the 14th century, and the village centre features a collection of buildings, including a cruck-framed barn, which together mark centuries of history, including the current development of housing. The original settlement was based on the open-field agricultural system preceding the Norman Conquest. In 1767, the Enclosure Act forced the largely agricultural community to invest in the industrial economy, notably frame knitting, then boot and shoe manufacture. Today, the vibrant village hosts a summer Yarn Bomb event that recalls its heritage and attracts many visitors. Although it has existed for centuries, this large village continues to appeal to the community with a wide range of sports, education and leisure facilities, including a variety of shops, a library, cafés (including a popular fish and chip shop), parks and a golf course. For more details, this site may help: For those needing a primary school, Cosby has its own: Cosby Primary School. A private school is within walking distance of the property. A broader secondary education option is available in Countesthorpe, Lutterworth or Leicester Grammar. The Department for Education Standards - OFSTED – is best studied to provide a full review of currently assessed practice standards for all regional educational providers.

Kupnja nekretnine - Nestled in the sought-after Vale of Belvoir, The Moors is a stunning country home situated in a secluded, rural location close to the village of Eaton. Approached by a long sweeping gravel drive, the property boasts fantastic reception rooms downstairs and four well-proportioned bedrooms upstairs — all with uninterrupted views of the gardens and the idyllic surrounding countryside. Built in 1939 for the current owner's grandparents, the property retains many original features, including fireplaces and a historic dovecote. The formal gardens, which cover around two acres of land, are quite stunning, offering privacy with mature and manicured gardens, several useful outbuildings, and a double garage. Eaton is a highly desirable location, with excellent links to the A1 and Grantham (with direct trains to London King's Cross in around 70 minutes), Stathern, Eastwell and Belvoir Castle — all of which are located nearby. Sellers Insight:"We've loved living here and will miss it a lot. It's a really peaceful and quiet home — great for entertaining and family life. My grandparents originally built the house in the late 1930s and it's been handed down through the generations. The property has been well cared for — retaining many of the original features. Three of the bedrooms have period fireplaces and there are other historic elements such as the glass tiles in the bathroom and a dovecote in the garden. So, the house is full of character, coupled with contemporary touches.""The reception rooms downstairs are all exceptionally light and airy. There's lots of space and a communal feel — which is great for family get-togethers and entertaining.""The bedrooms all have wonderful views of the gardens and countryside. From the smallest bedroom, you get spectacular views in the morning as the sun rises and you can often see deer roaming around in the distance.""The house was designed for countryside living. So, you have the area with the boiler room and 'garden' loo. This is handy when you're coming in from a country walk or gardening — as it's somewhere to store wet coats and muddy boots.""In the summer, the gardens are wonderful for entertaining, playing football or just chilling out and enjoying the spectacular views. You can almost get lost in the grounds. The patio area is very pretty and a real suntrap in the summer. The gardens have an extensive range of fruit trees, including apples, pears, plums, greengages, raspberries, blackcurrants, and redcurrants." "The colours in the garden are spectacular in the spring and summer. We have several varieties of rhododendrons around the property, as well as wisteria, beautiful lime trees and a stunning Oak tree. There are several outbuildings and sheds in the gardens — which are great for storage. The garden shed has double glazing and a storage heater, so it could be adapted for various uses. There's also a garden office with a wood burner.""You have a lot of privacy and seclusion around the property. Eaton and the surrounding villages are very friendly, with a good mix of people who've lived here for a long time and newcomers.""You're close to the larger towns of Grantham and Stamford. The Engine Yard, which is three miles away, has independent shops and a café. You're also close to Stamford, which has a much wider range of shops and other amenities. There are lots of great country pubs locally." "For commuters, there are good road links to major cities such as Nottingham and Leicester.
