Located in the south Leicestershire village of South Kilworth, This Home is a property of distinctive style and design. Found at the top of a spacious private tarmac drive lined with tall graphite eco fencing, it is approached from Welford Road through black steel gates and along a driveway lined with lights and shrubs. It is an impressively individual building from the very first glance. Although it is only natural to try and imagine what this exceptional property has to offer, this is an original, and as such will undoubtedly deliver beyond expectations. This Stunning Home has been developed and personalised by the present owners over the last sixteen years. It is a residence that exudes modern characteristics and attributing features of architectural note. The main part of the building is in white render, accessorised with horizontal graphite windows, and a large chimney stack amidst a sweeping clerestory roof. It has been specifically extended and refurbished to add contemporary features, fixtures and fittings creating a split level house with an enormous one hundred metre squared bedroom extension connected to the main building through a glass link. In total, it has six bedrooms, a spacious open plan living area, gymnasium, triple garage and glass sided balcony, equipped with graphite pergolas below. By reconfiguring and adding to the existing structure, open space and versatility have been created in abundance within half an acre of grounds that overlook beautiful open farmland and countryside. This is an exclusively designed modern home. Welcoming The driveway is generously proportioned and easily provides parking for up to ten cars. There is a pond with waterfall feature at the front of the building and well maintained landscaped gardens consisting of lawn, trees and shrubbery. The triple garage is cedar clad and has been deliberately personalized to coordinate with the main house, featuring pent roof and four automated doors. Once inside, the hallway captures the essence of the interior design; it is light filled and spacious, with subtle lighting fixtures, minimal decoration and natural textures. The floor is covered with large white gloss porcelain tiles: they run throughout the hallway and into the large bedrooms found via a glass extension on the left. The tongue and groove doors in the property are made from medium oak wood, accessorised with brushed steel furniture, and coordinate with the staircase/steps that lead from the hall into the wonderful living space beyond. Contemporary design for relaxation and comfort Here, there is a combination of lounge, dining room and kitchen. There are areas demarcated for specific purposes with the use of furniture or fixtures but the generous proportion of the living space, plus the views that surround it into the garden and beyond, create an exceptionally light and relaxing room that is the geographical heart of the home. Travertine flooring is used throughout the living space and a bespoke feature wall of cedar cladding creates a perfect place to view a wide screen television for the lounge area. Directly above, there is one of two hidden entrances into the loft space, which has lighting, insulation and is boarded. A log burner has been positioned diagonally in the furthest corner of the living space – there is a covered cedar porch with log store close by - opposite to the open kitchen. The whole space is beautifully neutral and distinctively unique, with an easy relaxed vibe for everyday needs but with the capability for larger scale entertaining. The kitchen has three pairs of sliding anthracite doors. Two of them open onto the wide balcony. The covered balcony offers a fantastic extension to the living area and is decked with wood grain anthracite composite flooring. Here, purpose placed opaque glass affords privacy when using the hot tub, while the three metre by seven metre graphite pergolas can be opened or closed to suit. Within the bespoke kitchen, there is a sweep of worktop with space for double integrated appliances in cabinetry that is both practical and very fitting in this open plan arrangement of rooms. Stools fit neatly into one of the work surfaces and a steel extractor fan is ceiling hung from above the convection hob. The double ovens and dishwasher are included in the sale of the property. The dining area is at the side of the kitchen. Here there are two cabin windowed doors opening into a store on the left and a landing on the right. The landing leads to a staircase dropping to the rooms on the lowest level. The utility is below the kitchen – reached by going down the staircase – it is similarly fitted for storage, has an additional sink and provides plumbing for laundry appliances. There is also a pantry next door and the internal door to the snug. The snug is entered along a hall from the staircase and double doors opening onto the front of the property. The snug provides a wonderful addition to the home. Remember…there are six bedrooms From the original point of entry, instead of ascending the stairs to the living area, the bedrooms are on the opposite side on ground level. From the hall there are doors to two bedrooms at the front of the building and another at the rear. Presently, two of them are being used as separate studies. A family bathroom with separate toilet and basin are across the hall. Lastly, a fourth bedroom that has its own en-suite and doors that open into the garden. Another L shaped bedroom at the opposite end of the hall has a 4.5 metre window overlooking the front of the property. It is a spacious room and is fitted with mirrored wardrobes. The master suite of rooms making up the prime bedroom is at the furthest wing of the property. The extensive minimalist bedroom has windows on three sides and one with an electrically operated blind that stretches across the 4.5 metres of glass that looks into the garden and beyond. This prime suite has a bespoke dressing room with skylights, for him and her, and a designer minimalist en-suite by Lisa Melvin entitled ‘Rock Star’. This was featured in an edition of the Utopia kitchen and bathroom magazine and has a Hudson Reed wall-hung vanity unit with double basin, drawers and a three-panelled mirrored cabinet. There is a 3.6 ‘Dreamwall’ component behind the Waters Brook2 freestanding white bath and a supersize walk through rainfall shower, fitted with a Hansgrohe dance shower system and silver moon mosaic floor tiles. Graphite porcelain tiles are used elsewhere. The chrome finish radiator and towel warmer is made by Bisque and on skirting board level, the blue toned lighting reacts automatically with movement sensors. All fixtures and fittings in all the bathing areas of this Home have been tastefully selected for their contemporary design and fitted to high specifications. They all impress with the continuing theme of natural materials, a neutral palette and stunning attention to detail. Outside in the rear garden, a cedar clad summer house continues with the appearance of the house. There are landscaped gardens to enjoy and ever-changing, seasonal views looking out to open countryside. In all aspects tis impressive home undeniably fulfils the definition of exceptional: superior, superb and completely out of the ordinary,’ South Kilworth is a village in central England, a region referred to as the East Midlands. It is situated towards the southernmost extremity of Leicestershire being only a half hour drive from Leicester’s city centre. It is in the LE17 postcode district and is a civil parish. It falls within the district council of Harborough and is within easy reach of larger towns such as Lutterworth, Husbands Bosworth and Rugby, all providing a variety of amenities such as edge of town super stores or uniquely bespoke shops. Essentially, South Kilworth is geographically at the centre of an intersection of routes. The North Road takes you to North Kilworth and heading south on the Kilworth Road will lead to Welford. Heading south-west or north-west, will incur meeting the M1 at junctions 19 and 20, Rugby and Lutterworth respectively. From those points the M6 and M69 maximise the potential for speedier travel by road from this central 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 a settlement known then as Cleveliord which many believe is referring to South Kilworth as it could mean hedged enclosure. There have been settlements in the vicinity since prehistoric times with later evidence pertaining to Roman, Anglo Saxon and mediaeval periods. The village was certainly established before the Norman Conquest, with a manor and farming community. There remains evidence of forridge and furrow cultivation in fields bordering the village. The church of St Nicholas is twelfth century in part but holds a clock tower installed as a memorial to the men of the locality who died fighting in the 1914-18 war. There are a number of historic houses in the village along the Welford and Walcote Roads dating from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Today, the village hall located on Leys Crescent is the centre for many social activities, events and clubs. It has extensive sports pitches, a children’s playground, adult fitness equipment and a bowling green. As with many communities, people are interested to share points of communal interest and the South Kilworth monthly newsletter will be a good starting point for those new to the area. An excellent village website produced by the parish council also contains a wealth of information. www.southkilworth.co.uk There are several public houses and restaurants in or close by to South Kilworth: The White Hart, The Attic, White Lion or Black Horse to name a few. These serve locally produced food and ales. There is easy access to wider open spaces, with nature reserves and bridal paths within easy reach. Kilworth Springs Golf Club, Kilworth House Hotel and the Outdoor Theatre attract people to the vicinity, as does the North Kilworth Marina. Golf courses and equestrian centres are easily reached by car. There is a local primary school, South Kilworth Primary School but over a wider area there are several educational options; nursery, primary and secondary. South Kilworth is in the catchment area for the Rugby (Warwickshire) Grammar Schools. Other schools include the Rugby School, Leicester Grammar, Princethorpe and Oakham. There are also private establishments in the county offering bordering facilities. The Office for Standards in Education - OFSTED – is best researched to provide a comprehensive review of currently rated standards of practice.

Yew Tree House presents as an attractive, well-built cottage from the kerb side on Fenny Lane. It is certainly that but so, so much more. Dating from the 1700’s, it was originally a farmhouse until the present owners in 2013 realised its potential. With a vision to create a home suited for its rural location and contemporarily equipped for the future, they extended and modernised the entire property, the result is a prestigious, bespoke four bedroom house in a prime location. The property is directly approached from the road and has a block paved drive at the side leading to double wooden gates. A car could be parked here but beyond the gates the drive becomes gravelled and leads to a double garage where there is ample room for turning and parking multiple vehicles. Fencing, mature shrubbery, hedging and native trees provide seclusion and privacy surrounding a landscaped garden to the rear of the house. Yew Tree House and grounds are deceptively large and while certainly appealing from initial observation, it is only when entered and explored that the size and beautiful interior can be fully appreciated: it is a surprise for all the right reasons. Roof tops and chimney stacks The house is traditionally built with red brick walls, rustic chimney stacks, cross gabled roofs and contemporary window frames. Within the oak and glass portico, there is an oak seat and the thresholds have been kept and reused from the original farmhouse. Slate floors are used throughout, including the patio outside the living room. Yew Tree House is built on two levels and has a cellar. There are presently four bedrooms – two with ensuite- a large bathroom, two reception rooms, a separate shower room and a generous open plan kitchen/ dinning/ living space. The house is tastefully decorated using coordinated features and materials of the highest specification. It is in a quiet location as Shearsby is reached from a branch road off the main A5199 and avoids through traffic. This is a delightful residence that has been cared for and nurtured to exacting standards and richly benefits from the rural charm of its position. Extended and improved to exacting standards Undeniably, the house is impressively large and individual. On entry into the dining room, cottage features remain and the focal point is the open fire place. The exposed brick chimney and integrated oak shelving compliment the exposed beams overhead and create a room that mingles traditional characteristics with a contemporary style. Light permeates the ground floor ahead, as doorways have been widened and the length of the house can be seen with views of the patio and garden. Here, the benefit of singularly using slate flooring is apparent as it links the areas and the overall impression is of space and a relaxed airiness. Next door, the snug is decorated in a similar style but has a log burner. It retains its door and provides a cosy, private retreat away from the openness of the extended rear parts of the house: a perfect place to read in or watch the television. The hall crosses the house from the shower room to the right and the staircase to the left. The staircase is a bespoke fusion of steel, glass and French oak treads. It appears to float between levels and is cast in light from the thermal translucent glass block wall it rises against. The staircase leads to the cellar beneath the house which is suitable for storage and above to the first floor landing, where a feature beam runs along the width of the house and displays lighting. Directly opposite the staircase, a shower room is fitted with walk in shower, vanity unit and toilet. This enables the snug to be used as a fifth ground floor bedroom with convenient bathing facilities, if required. The bathing facilities throughout Yew Tree House are modern, stylish and well maintained. White suites are complimented with tiling to floors and walls, and high quality fixtures and fittings are standard. A modern living space with a focus on relaxed entertaining Stepping down into the kitchen from the hall, the impressive open plan living space is organised into purposeful zones. The kitchen has an individually designed island for informal dining and a very large lounge area, presently arranged to benefit from a media wall and a wall corner log burner. Floor to ceiling translucent panes of glass along two elevations begin here – the master bedroom suite is immediately above – and full height bifolding doors that open onto a secluded patio area. The central island houses an induction hob, a sink with boiling water tap and waste bin cupboard. A curved Corian worktop provides seating for eight people and a full height wall of cupboards includes a small pantry area. Further worktops permit food preparation and spaces for equipment while integrated appliances such as a fridge freezer and eye level electric oven and steam oven are also included. A wine rack, two large larder cupboards, a double door cupboard for coats and a feature bookcase made from French oak includes two large cutlery drawers and completes the designer kitchen. A separate utility/laundry room is accessed along a glass corridor and provides additional room for grocery or appliance requirements. It is fitted with a sink unit, cupboards and plumbing for a washing machine and condensing tumble dryer. There is a separate toilet and hand basin next door. To the side of the patio outside of the living room, the corridor presents as a wall of glazed glass and hides the rooms within but means that the facilities are within easy reach. This corridor leads to the double garage which is currently used as a gym. It has an alcove suitable for a fridge and freezer, and hooks for coats. Electrically operated garage doors allow its original use to be recommissioned but a single steel side door equally permits other options. To the first floor and views of the garden There are four double, carpeted bedrooms on the first floor. The master suite to the rear, has patio doors opening onto a balcony. This permits views over the sedum roof of the garage/gym and garden beyond. It is a particularly luxurious room and has a vaulted ceiling, a fully glazed gable end and a pair of integrated wardrobes. Its large ensuite has spiralled glass partitioning, a walk in shower, toilet and vanity unit. The bedroom across the landing shares similar views, while bedroom three is to the front. This double aspect room looks to the village green, renowned for its preservation as an original feature of the village landscape and protected by residential ownership to remain unchanged. The remaining fourth bedroom is fitted with integral wardrobes and has an ensuite consisting of walk in shower, toilet and vanity unit. The substantial family bathroom is equipped with a large quadrant shower and corner bath, vanity unit and toilet. As with many aspects of this property, the bathing facilities have been totally renewed, redecorated and accessorised to a high specification providing beautifully designed rooms with white suites, contemporary lighting and pristine tiling. All curtains, light fittings and carpets on all levels are included within the sale of this property. Wander through the garden The garden is another beautiful asset of Yew Tree House. From the roadside it would be difficult to appreciate the length of its plot or the variation of the landscaping included. It is well stocked with herbaceous borders and specimen trees, including a white mulberry, laburnum and many acers. An artificial turf lawn, patios and walk ways have been incorporated, and a bridge leads over a natural pond to the largest southwest facing patio and barbecue area. The dining area looks back to views of the village and there is a hot tub. Beyond this partitioned space, a shaded garden leads to a further vegetable garden with raised beds, a fruit cage, cold frames, a green house and sheds.

It appears to float between levels and is cast in light from the thermal translucent glass block wall it rises against. The staircase leads to the cellar beneath the house which is suitable for storage and above to the first floor landing, where a feature beam runs along the width of the house and displays lighting. Directly opposite the staircase, a shower room is fitted with walk in shower, vanity unit and toilet. This enables the snug to be used as a fifth ground floor bedroom with convenient bathing facilities, if required. The bathing facilities throughout Yew Tree House are modern, stylish and well maintained. White suites are complimented with tiling to floors and walls, and high quality fixtures and fittings are standard. A modern living space with a focus on relaxed entertaining Stepping down into the kitchen from the hall, the impressive open plan living space is organised into purposeful zones. The kitchen has an individually designed island for informal dining and a very large lounge area, presently arranged to benefit from a media wall and a wall corner log burner. Floor to ceiling translucent panes of glass along two elevations begin here – the master bedroom suite is immediately above – and full height bifolding doors that open onto a secluded patio area. The central island houses an induction hob, a sink with boiling water tap and waste bin cupboard. A curved Corian worktop provides seating for eight people and a full height wall of cupboards includes a small pantry area. Further worktops permit food preparation and spaces for equipment while integrated appliances such as a fridge freezer and eye level electric oven and steam oven are also included. A wine rack, two large larder cupboards, a double door cupboard for coats and a feature bookcase made from French oak includes two large cutlery drawers and completes the designer kitchen. A separate utility/laundry room is accessed along a glass corridor and provides additional room for grocery or appliance requirements. It is fitted with a sink unit, cupboards and plumbing for a washing machine and condensing tumble dryer. There is a separate toilet and hand basin next door. To the side of the patio outside of the living room, the corridor presents as a wall of glazed glass and hides the rooms within but means that the facilities are within easy reach. This corridor leads to the double garage which is currently used as a gym. It has an alcove suitable for a fridge and freezer, and hooks for coats. Electrically operated garage doors allow its original use to be recommissioned but a single steel side door equally permits other options. To the first floor and views of the garden There are four double, carpeted bedrooms on the first floor. The master suite to the rear, has patio doors opening onto a balcony. This permits views over the sedum roof of the garage/gym and garden beyond. It is a particularly luxurious room and has a vaulted ceiling, a fully glazed gable end and a pair of integrated wardrobes. Its large ensuite has spiralled glass partitioning, a walk in shower, toilet and vanity unit. The bedroom across the landing shares similar views, while bedroom three is to the front. This double aspect room looks to the village green, renowned for its preservation as an original feature of the village landscape and protected by residential ownership to remain unchanged. The remaining fourth bedroom is fitted with integral wardrobes and has an ensuite consisting of walk in shower, toilet and vanity unit. The substantial family bathroom is equipped with a large quadrant shower and corner bath, vanity unit and toilet. As with many aspects of this property, the bathing facilities have been totally renewed, redecorated and accessorised to a high specification providing beautifully designed rooms with white suites, contemporary lighting and pristine tiling. All curtains, light fittings and carpets on all levels are included within the sale of this property. Wander through the garden The garden is another beautiful asset of Yew Tree House. From the roadside it would be difficult to appreciate the length of its plot or the variation of the landscaping included. It is well stocked with herbaceous borders and specimen trees, including a white mulberry, laburnum and many acers. An artificial turf lawn, patios and walk ways have been incorporated, and a bridge leads over a natural pond to the largest southwest facing patio and barbecue area. The dining area looks back to views of the village and there is a hot tub. Beyond this partitioned space, a shaded garden leads to a further vegetable garden with raised beds, a fruit cage, cold frames, a green house and sheds. Location The beautiful village of Shearsby is set in the South Leicestershire countryside approximately 9 miles South of Leicester and equidistance to Lutterworth and the medieval market town of Market Harborough, which both provide extensive facilities and a range of independent boutique shopping, restaurants, bars and hotels as well as supermarkets including a Waitrose. Recreational activities are plentiful for all age groups with nearby golf courses including Ullesthorpe, Lutterworth, Market Harborough, and Kilworth Springs. Situated between the two towns is the innovative Kilworth open-air theatre set under sail-like canopies within the grounds of Kilworth House Hotel. Although protected as a Conservation Area, Shearsby is by no means dormant – it is a lively, active and busy community with the Village Green, the Old School House converted into the village hall, St Mary Magdalene Church and The Chandlers Public House forming the heart of the village. The area boasts an excellent standard of schools, with the local primary schools at both Arnesby and nearby Gilmorton. As well as a good range of state secondary schools in nearby Lutterworth, private schooling is available nearby at Rugby School and Leicester Grammar School (Great Glen).

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.

This is a genuinely joined up lifestyle property rather than a house with a separate collection of outbuildings: the coach house, leisure complex and garaging extend the living and entertaining space well beyond the main house itself, and are finished and maintained to the same high standard throughout. Since taking ownership in 2022, the current owners have invested significantly in the property, carrying out a full electrical rewire of the main house, annexe and poolhouse, insulating the main house loft, and fitting Nest smart heating throughout. The swimming pool and its heating system have been fully refurbished, the tennis court completely refurbished with new floodlights, and two EV charging points and full exterior CCTV installed. This is not a project requiring further investment. The significant structural and system upgrades have already been carried out, and the asking price reflects both the scale of the property and the scale of that investment. Decoratively, the house has been beautifully and sympathetically presented, with original stonework, exposed brick and reclaimed timber doors retained as genuine character features, set against a fresh, considered scheme of soft sage greens, crisp white painted beams and pale engineered timber flooring. Hallways, bedrooms, bathrooms and the family room have all been redecorated, with new carpet to the stairs and upper hallway. The kitchen benefits from a Quooker hot water and filtered cold water tap, with a further Quooker hot tap fitted in the annexe. The result is a home that feels bright, current and genuinely move in ready, while losing none of its period soul. GROUND FLOOR A central entrance hall, finished with reclaimed timber doors and a bright, contemporary palette, gives access to the principal rooms to either side. A comfortable snug offers a quieter space to relax, with exposed stonework and original beams overhead. The dining room, recently redecorated, includes a bespoke built in wall cabinet and a new electric wall radiator, alongside the family room, which benefits from two new column radiators. The kitchen and adjoining breakfast nook anchor the home, fitted to a high standard with space for family life and entertaining alike. A utility room and downstairs WC sit conveniently off the hallway, the WC recently fitted with a new suite and radiator. To the rear, a substantial living room, at over 30 feet long, offers a genuinely impressive entertaining space. FIRST FLOOR A wide, recently redecorated hallway leads to the principal bedroom, which benefits from its own en suite. Three further double bedrooms are well proportioned, two of real scale, and are served by two further bathrooms, both freshly redecorated and finished to a high, modern standard with a freestanding bath and separate walk in rainfall shower. SECOND FLOOR A further double bedroom sits alongside a versatile room, currently used as a sixth bedroom and ideal as a home office or additional snug, with exposed roof timbers adding genuine character to the space. THE COACH HOUSE Entirely independent from the main house, the coach house offers charming accommodation of its own, with two ground floor bedrooms, one currently used as a sitting room and recently fitted with new carpet, and a newly fitted bathroom suite. The first floor sitting room enjoys views over the gardens, alongside a well equipped kitchen. A garage sits alongside. LEISURE COMPLEX Adjacent to the coach house, a genuinely impressive leisure complex includes a substantial swimming pool, recently refurbished with a new counter-current swim jet, a regrouted pool surface and a refurbished Calorex heating system, together with a new pump, water tank and pipework. The poolhouse bathroom has been fully refurbished with a new suite, new shower and Herschel infrared radiators, with the fuseboard upgraded and two new electric radiators fitted upstairs. A first floor billiard room and mezzanine games room overlook the pool below, a wonderful space for entertaining in any season. A further large garage and outbuilding completes the outstanding provision of outbuildings, previously used to store a helicopter. OUTSIDE The property is approached through timber double gates over a gravelled driveway, leading to substantial parking to the front and side, now served by two Zappi EV charging points. A separate second driveway to the rear gives independent access to the coach house and garaging, with a third access point via the Hallaton Road. Exterior CCTV covers the grounds throughout. The gardens are mostly laid to lawn, with terraced seating areas, attractive flowering borders and a range of mature specimen trees. The principal lawns, to the east of the property, include a fully refurbished multi surface tennis court finished in a Savannah playing surface, complete with new floodlights for evening play. LOCATION AND LIFESTYLE Walnut Farm sits in the sought after and historically significant village of East Norton, just off the A47 on the border with Rutland, between Uppingham and Leicester, within the heart of the village close to the church. The nearby market towns of Market Harborough, Uppingham, Oakham and Melton Mowbray together offer a comprehensive range of shops, services, sports clubs, theatres and schools. For those who enjoy the outdoors, Rutland Water lies just to the east between Uppingham and Oakham, offering sailing, watersports, fishing, scenic walks and the Rutland Water Cycle Route.

The Hawthorns is a masterpiece of Edwardian architecture, built in 1906 and standing as one of the finest and most characterful residences in one of Oadby's most coveted addresses. Set behind a long, sweeping driveway on a plot of approximately 0.56 of an acre, the moment you arrive you understand that this is something entirely different. This remarkable property extends to an impressive 5,455 square feet in total, encompassing the principal house, annexe, garage and outbuildings, offering a scale and versatility that is exceptionally rare in this area. From the moment you step into the entrance hall, the story of this house begins to unfold. Double height, grand in proportion and flooded with light, the original wooden flooring underfoot and the staircase that rises above are genuinely among the finest you will find in a private home. 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.
