villages including several shops, post office, doctor’s surgery and

within the area including primary schools, preparatory at Maidwell Hall,
Stoneygate School and Leicester Grammar, together with private
schooling in Oakham, Uppingham and Rugby School. For the commuter,
the A6 provides access to Leicester and Market Harborough, both of
which have mainline rail services to London St Pancras. The M1 is
accessible at Junction 21 and the A14 lies to the south.

the ground floor is an elegant bay fronted dining room with open fire, and an informal sitting room or office,
also with an inset fireplace and bay fronted window.
The heart of the house is the recently enlarged and re-fitted open plan kitchen and family room, with
breakfasting area, spanning the full depth of the house from front to back, and with a wide range of windows
introducing plenty of light and views to the garden through double French doors. Underfloor heated throughout,
the kitchen, created by a bespoke kitchen and furniture maker, is positioned around a central island, with excellent
range of units, AGA, hob, oven and space for a double fridge freezer with storage over. A step leads down to the
family room, where a log burner is set into a deep hearth, and there is space not only for a comfortable seating
area, but also for a generous dining area.
From the rear hall are an extensive range of utility rooms, including a large boot room, cloakroom, pantry and
laundry/utility room.
To the first floor, the principal bedroom is generously proportioned, with windows overlooking the lake and
gardens, and adjacent to a bathroom which could be adapted to create an en-suite. There are five further
bedrooms, all of a very good size, two further bathrooms and a washroom. A secondary staircase leads down to
