A unique two/three-bedroom dormer bungalow with a one-bedroom self-contained annex, privately positioned on a well-established plot with a double garage and open views to the rear in the peaceful village of Ashby Folville.
Enter the property into a light-filled entrance hall that provides access to the ground floor accommodation. At the front of the property are two principal reception rooms. The hallway flows to the right, leading into a generously proportioned living room with a Norwegian stylish log burner which flows seamlessly back into the entrance hall.
Opposite the living room is a second reception room, currently used as a office. This versatile space could easily serve as additional living accommodation or a ground floor bedroom, especially convenient given the adjacent shower room. Next to the shower room is a useful utility area and an external door opening out to the rear of the property.
To the rear, a third bedroom overlooks the garden and is currently used as a snug/sewing room. Adjacent to this is the dining kitchen, fitted with a range of modern units, a variety of integrated appliances, and space for an American-style fridge freezer. A central island with a breakfast bar provides both function and style. The kitchen opens into a bright and airy dining/living area, with glazing on three sides that floods the space with natural light. Bi-folding doors lead directly out to the patio and rear garden, creating a perfect indoor-outdoor connection. A downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, the staircase rises to a spacious first-floor landing, currently used as an artist studio. The primary bedroom benefits from ample built-in storage and an en-suite shower room. A further single bedroom, currently used as a guest bedroom with built-in wardrobes, sits opposite.
Set within the garden is a self-contained, one-bedroom annex—an attractive Swedish wood cabin offering a fully fitted kitchen, reception room, double bedroom, and en-suite shower room. It is connected to mains electricity and drainage and features electric heating
The property occupies a generous plot accessed via a shared private road leading to a gated, block-paved driveway offering ample off-road parking and access to a double garage. There is also pedestrian access to both sides of the property.
The rear garden is well-established, featuring a patio area, ornamental pond, mature planting, and a lawn interspersed with specimen trees. A post and rail fence and a gate marks the rear boundary, offering uninterrupted views of the open countryside beyond.
Ashby Folville is a particularly attractive leafy village nestling in a shallow valley surrounded by Parkland. The village is particularly well known for its picturesque cricket ground and offers a popular local pub. More extensive local facilities are available at near-by Gaddesby, Syston and Queniborough and the village is particularly well placed for fast access to Leicester, Loughborough, Oakham, and Melton Mowbray.
The property is offered to the market with all mains services and gas-fired central heating. There are solar panels installed on both the main house and the annex with battery backup.
