Notably contemporary Located within the south Leicestershire village of Cosby, this house sitting on a third of an acre of ground, has been redesigned to maximise its potential. Containing over 3,000 square feet of interior space, it easily fulfils contemporary expectations for a bespoke executive property. Originally constructed during the 1940s, it has been the project of the present homeowner for ten years, with a complete renovation and extension beginning in October 2020 and a total rewiring in 2023. The resulting transformation is an outstanding detached house that along with many other features, provides three reception rooms, a spacious kitchen and breakfast diner, and a ground floor guest suite with five large double bedrooms across the first floor.Established residential area The house is located within a quiet residential area of similarly unique, characterful properties and benefits from little traffic by being atop a cul de sac. Kerb appeal is immediate. It is fronted by an open plan arrangement of paving, discreet planting and a wide drive that winds to the front and side. It is undoubtably a statement property. Characterful features include an intersecting and overlaid hip and valley roof, with dormer windows and an impressive apex window. Anthracite window frames and white rendered walls create expectations of a modern interior, as everything about the exterior-including the new roof complete with replacement fascia, soffits and guttering- establishes the impression of sharp, clean structural lines. This is enforced by the symmetry of the open weather porch, shielding a composite front door, and matched with a pair of translucent glass panels. Vehicular access is unhindered and there is ample parking. An integral single garage is immediately to the right of the property and access to the main house can be gained from here, through a downstairs washroom. The garage is equipped with overhead lighting, a store cupboard and power. The tour of the ground floor The house has been totally renovated and enlarged to prioritise light, airiness and space. From the first step across the threshold, the interior structural elements and decoration speak of an intrinsic simplicity and beauty through the choice of textures, fixtures and fittings. This is a generous property that reflects minimalism, great design and decisions made with high quality as standard. The residence is in every way, uncluttered. Unhindered lines of sight and a neutral colour palette, provide an interior décor that is the blueprint for free flow contemporary living, and the central point of convergence, is the entrance hall. The hall’s stunning apex window and vaulted ceiling is a major feature. It adds warmth, light and a volume of overhead space that encourages the visitor to look upwards to appreciate the white balustraded, carpeted staircase and gallery. This executive home has been renovated with an exacting level of detail and attention to the fixtures and fittings. The property is coordinated throughout with matching doors, skirting boards, switches and LED ambient lighting. Fitted blinds cover most windows and most can be operated with a remote control. In the hall there are deep set windows on each side of the entrance.Optimised open plan living The open plan kitchen diner is to the right and measures nearly a third of the internal downstairs area. Covered in large porcelain floor tiles, it is an extensive light-filled room with dual aspects, and incorporates many stylish features, seamlessly running from one purposed space to another. Beginning with the breakfast room, the window has a front aspect. It is presently used as an informal sitting area but however it is used, it is within sight and easy conversation of those in the kitchen. The versatility of this space is an asset. Beyond, the kitchen is amply fitted with soft closing wall and floor non-handle units, an expanse of work top across one wall and a central island with sink and three built in USB points. A large lantern sky light allows light to flood into the food preparation area and onto the integrated appliances including a microwave cooker, separate AEG oven, food warming drawer, wine coolers, a fridge freezer, an induction hob with extraction and a Quooker tap. Two large, fitted pullout waste drawers, a dishwasher, plus large under counter storage cupboards, complete the fully fitted kitchen which was recently installed in 2023. The central island, also houses room for stools, and who would not want to sit in such a wonderful room and admire the views through the bi-folding doors? They fold back to allow the raised terrace to become an extension of the room. This is ideal for entertaining and provides immediate access to the landscaped, private garden.A landscaped garden The garden is a continuation of the open plan scheme. It is a secluded, well-maintained garden and incorporates terracing, shrubbery, planted beds, hedges and trees. A sheltered summer house and green house with raised beds provide interest for keen gardeners, while a large, grassed area is perfect for children to play safely. It is by clever and practical design that these lovely outdoor areas are seamlessly linked to optimise space for maximum functionality, whether for everyday living or those special entertaining occasions. Reception rooms The pantry and utility room are to the right of the kitchen. With additional storage, work top and sink, space is available for a washing machine and vented tumble drier. The utility room has access to the garden and is next door to a room presently used as a study. It has two windows looking into the rear garden. Leaving this room and walking back into the kitchen, a boot room is discreetly located in the hall and then a hallway links the remaining ground floor reception rooms and guest suite. Both reception rooms are spacious, easily cater for different arrangements of furniture and have patio doors opening to the terrace. The sitting room is particularly bright, as it also has two large picture windows. It is carpeted and fitted with coordinating blinds and curtains. Likewise, the lounge has curtains. This room has a wood effect laminate flooring and a large fireplace, displaying a slate hearth, oak mantel and black gas fire. The reception rooms share an internal window.The guest suite and first floor bedrooms Before ascending to the first floor, the ground floor has a valuable asset that has yet to be investigated. A large, carpeted bedroom, with separate bathroom. These en-suite facilities consist of a walk-in shower, toilet, bidet, sink unit and stand-alone roll top bath. It is perfectly private as a guest suite or for a member of the family requiring ground floor accommodation. From the generous living areas on the ground floor the ascent to the first floor is dominated by the feature apex window. It allows natural light to flood the wide, airy landing. Here there are five double bedrooms, a study and family bathroom. The rooms have television and power points and three of the largest, private en-suites consisting of walk-in showers, toilets and vanity units. The prime suite has a dressing room, while others have integrated fitted wardrobes. Windows have been fitted with a combination of curtains and blinds: some remotely controlled. All the bathing facilities in this house are quite superior with high quality white sanitaryware, distinctive wall and floor tiling, lighting and heated towel rails. The family bathroom has a contemporary style free standing bath with hand shower, separate walk-in shower, vanity unit and toilet. The boiler and heating system were installed 2023. The water tank is a huge 150 litre Stelflow tank, perfect for large families. This is connected to a recently installed Worcester boiler. The boiler also feeds the under-floor heating in the kitchen. All installed in 2023. LOCALITY Cosby LE9 Cosby is a sought-after village advantageously situated in the south of Leicestershire, benefitting from all the merits of its countryside location while also being close to motorway and rail networks that crisscross the country. Administered by the Blaby District Council, larger towns nearby include Whetstone, Blaby, Wigston and Oadby. It is only 7 miles 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 Cosby the M 1 can be reached at junction 21, to the south near to Lutterworth and junction 20. The A426 is the main through road to Lutterworth, with train stations at Rugby for links to Birmingham and Narborough for links to Leicester, with trains running regularly to London St Pancras International. East Midlands Airport (EMB) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) are the closest airports. Cosby or ‘Cassebi’ was first recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 but given that the Fosse Way bounds the parish to the north, it may well have been a settlement in earlier times, having a notable stream running through it. St Michael’s and All Angels parish church dates from the fourteenth century and the village centre has a selection of buildings including a cruck-framed barn, that combine to mark the centuries that have passed, including the present development of homes. The original settlement from the was based around the open fields system of agriculture predating the Norman Conquest. In 1767 the Enclosure Act forced the predominantly farming community to become invested with industrial economics, namely framework knitting, and then boot and shoe manufacture. Today, the bustling village has a summer Yarn Bomb event that recalls its heritage links and brings many visitors. Although it has existed for centuries, this large village continues to appeal to the community through a wide selection of sport, education and leisure amenities, including an array of shops, a library, cafes (including a popular fish and chip shop) and parks and Golf course.

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. You can also get direct trains to London from Grantham in just over an hour.”Key Features:• A stunning country home built in 1939 with a wealth of period features • Two acres of gardens and grounds • Secluded location in a tranquil rural setting • Large entrance hall with downstairs WC • Solid oak flooring in the main reception areas • A spacious and light living room with a mixed-fuel burner • Separate dining room with double doors to the study • Conservatory-style study with fine garden views • A heart-of-the-home kitchen with ample low-level and high-level units • Integrated appliances include a Rangemaster oven, fridge-freezer and integrated dishwasher • Large pantry with original 1930s tiled shelving • Handy boiler room, workshop and ‘garden’ WC in a courtyard wing • Utility room features fitted shelving and space for appliances • Large first-floor landing with views across the gardens • Four generously sized bedrooms with glorious garden and countryside views • Charming balcony extends from bedroom 2 – perfect for a morning coffee • Three bedrooms feature original fireplaces • Spacious family bathroom with original glass wall tiles and on-trend checkerboard flooring • Large floor-to-ceiling airing cupboard for storing towels • Extensive mature gardens that wrap around the house • Formal gardens include an array of fruit trees, rhododendrons, a flower garden and a gorgeous Oak tree • Several outbuildings, including a converted 1940s air raid shelter • Office in the garden with a log burner • Garden shed that is double-glazed and could be adapted for different uses • Small stores used for potting and garden tools • A period dovecote • Sweeping gravel drive with a double garage to the side of the house • Double garage includes a lockable workshopLocationSituated in the northeast corner of Leicestershire close to Melton Mowbray (8 miles) and Grantham (11 miles), Eaton is a charming hillside village comprising largely of traditional houses and cottages.
