Superbly located with easy access to the A50 and junction 22 of the M1, both providing links to Leicester, Nottingham, East Midlands airport and the national rail network.

You approach the property over a long private shared driveway, shared with just four other bungalows nearby. The property sits back in an elevated position behind a long lawned fore garden with driveway to the side providing plenty of parking alongside access to a detached double garage (light and power).

Leading off the lounge is the more formal and beautifully proportioned drawing room which has dual aspect windows, high ceilings with cornice detailing, Adam style fireplace at the focal point and picture patio doors which open out onto a raised balcony/terrace.

The sizeable breakfast kitchen is perfect for family mealtimes having more than enough room for a farmhouse style breakfast table. Cabinets wraparound three sides of the room providing plentiful storage and roll top worksurfaces have inset sink, ceramic hob with extractor above, alongside eye level double oven and integral fridge. There is space for a dishwasher and a wide uPVC double glazed picture window overlooks the front elevation.

To the right of the utility room is a useful home office/playroom which has front facing uPVC double glazed window.

On the opposite of the utility is a rear hallway leading to outside and garden beyond and there is a useful store cupboard and a second guest cloakroom, ideal as a gardeners WC.

There are three excellent sized bedrooms on offer, all of which benefit from fitted wardrobes and all of which have lovely views to the rear across the gardens. The master suite is an excellent size bedroom and has a range of wardrobes running along one wall with hanging rail, and also the benefit of its own en-suite shower room.

Lastly is the family bathroom which is a well proportioned room, continuing with the theme of the property, it has full height tiling to the walls, panelled bath with mixer tap, vanity unit with inset wash hand basin, WC and archway to tiled walk in shower area.
