General Description - A superb modern barn constructed by the current owner set in a plot of circa 8.2 acres with paddock land, beautiful formal gardens and a collection of further barns surrounded by open countryside to every elevation. The property is set in a convenient location within easy reach of the cities of Leicester and Birmingham. The main house consists of five bedrooms, three bathrooms and four reception rooms centred around a superb open-plan kitchen with bi-fold doors opening onto a total of circa 1.6 acres of beautiful formal gardens with a large pond and orchard. Behind gated access is a block paved yard/drive giving secure parking for numerous vehicles, and there is an oversized double garage with adjoining workshop. As an adjunct is a detached period barn that is part converted and has scope to become annexe/leisure facilities to the main house subject to the necessary planning consents, and two large adjoining steel frame agricultural barns. To the south westerly elevation are three large paddocks totalling circa 6.6 acres.
The property enjoys a prominent position set back from the road with a gravel drive. A gated access leads to a generous yard/drive affording off road parking for numerous vehicles, centred around an original part converted barn, generous garaging and two large steel frame barns. The main house boasts circa 3500 sq ft of internal accommodation over two floors to include reception hall, gym/family room, two sitting rooms, a study and a superb family kitchen. Upstairs are five generous bedrooms and the family bathroom. The guest bedroom boasts en-suite facilities, and the stunning master affords both en-suite and a separate dressing room.
The collection of barns and paddock land would lend themselves perfectly to either an equine/equestrian or small holding setup. Subject to the necessary consents the original brick under tile barn would make exceptional leisure or annexe facilities. The formal gardens boast views across the paddock land in a south westerly aspect, and are a particular feature of the property. Mature beds and lawns, an orchard and a substantial pond with a seating deck are all particularly well thought out and executed.
The property represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial modern family home with acreage and a number of good quality outbuildings. Viewing via the sole selling agent Alexanders of Market Bosworth (01455) 29147.
