The detail along the banisters, the sweep of the landing above, the chandelier overhead. It stops you in your tracks, as it should. That same original wooden flooring continues through the first floor hallway, a thread of authenticity that runs through the very heart of the home. The reception rooms are in a league of their own. Original fireplaces, intricate cornicing and coving, soaring ceilings, rich wall panelling and original bay windows combine to create spaces that feel both historic and utterly alive. Whether you are entertaining on a grand scale or simply living well, these rooms deliver something that no new build can replicate and no amount of money can manufacture. This home drips in character. And thanks to the modern heating system installed throughout, it is a home that keeps you wonderfully cool through the summer months and beautifully warm and cosy as the seasons turn, without ever losing a single note of its period charm. The kitchen and dining space is a genuine heart-of-the-home room and one that surprises at every turn. Exceptionally generous in proportion, it features a superb range of solid timber cabinetry with rich warm tones, dark granite worktops and a range cooker with extractor above. The original terrazzo flooring runs throughout and adds enormous character underfoot. Original leaded and stained glass windows bathe the room in coloured light, while French doors open directly out to the garden, making this a space that flows beautifully between inside and out. There is ample room for a large dining table and informal seating, making this as much a family room as it is a kitchen. A substantial utility room leads directly off, originally the servant quarters, complete with its own secondary staircase still intact, offering genuine flexibility for multi-generational living or simply a nod to the history beneath your feet. The first floor houses five bedrooms, all of generous proportion. Two benefit from their own en suite bathrooms, both fitted with underfloor heating, one featuring a sleek walk-in shower enclosure. The family bathroom perfectly complements the period character of the home. The principal bedroom enjoys its own bay window above the reception room below, flooding the space with light, and is served by a very large en suite. On the second floor, the possibilities open up further. A versatile room currently suited to use as a study or additional bedroom leads through to an extensive loft space that is ready and waiting to be converted. In the hands of a buyer with vision, the entire upper floor could become a private principal suite of genuine hotel quality, a games room or a creative studio. The ceiling height, the bones of the space and the existing access make this one of the most exciting opportunities the house presents. Outside, the plot is extraordinary for this location. Mature trees, established planting and lawned gardens wrap around the property, offering complete privacy and a sense of seclusion that belies the fact you are moments from everything this exceptional address has to offer. A dedicated garden outbuilding currently serves as a private gym. The gardens also benefit from an external WC and a separate outdoor utility room used for garden maintenance and storage. The annexe above the garage is a genuinely independent living space with its own gas meter, electricity meter and boiler system. Comprising a bedroom area, lounge, kitchen and bathroom, it is ideal for extended family, a live-in carer, visiting guests or as an income-generating opportunity. A garage with remote controlled electric doors and an adjacent carport complete the outstanding provision of outbuildings. The home 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 household. Directly opposite the property sits one of the area's most treasured assets. The University of Leicester Botanic Garden is a destination in its own right, drawing visitors from across the county and beyond to experience 16 acres of breathtaking grounds that change with every season. To have this on your doorstep, to watch it bloom and transform through spring, summer, autumn and winter, is one of those quiet privileges that only the fortunate few who live here truly understand. Victoria Park is equally close, offering open green space, weekend recreation and a wonderful sense of room to breathe. Glebe Road sits at the heart of Oadby, one of the most distinguished residential addresses in the East Midlands. This is a neighbourhood defined by sweeping tree-lined avenues, handsome period architecture and a strong, established community that has long attracted professionals, academics and families who value both quality of life and convenience. For families with children, the educational offering in this area is outstanding.
