Holly Tree Lodge, Wilbarston, Market Harborough

Holly Tree Lodge is a truly stunning home created through a comprehensive scheme of renovation, reconfiguration and re-development in 2022, with further adaptations and improvements by the current owners since. They have created a wonderful open plan home designed with modern living in mind and styled in a simply exquisite fashion.

Accommodation - Step through the front door into the welcoming hall, where your eye will be drawn from the herringbone floor and wood panelling to the oak staircase and luxury runner, with stair rods, that lead up. Tucked beneath here is a handy cupboard, while the guest cloakroom with contemporary suite is situated at the end. To your right you will find a spacious formal dining room that provides an open flow into the kitchen at the rear, and via oak double doors to the sitting room at the front. The sitting room has been styled to provide a peaceful sanctuary with a media wall that includes elegant feature shelving with lighting which flank a central fireplace and window seat within the bay that takes in the panoramic countryside views.

The open plan living kitchen is a show-stopping space that provides the perfect backdrop for relaxing or entertaining. Natural light spills through the window at the side and bi-folding doors to the patio. Elegant, fitted units provide ample storage while stone worksurfaces offer ample space for preparing food. The island benefits from a pop-up power socket. Integrated appliances include full a height fridge, full height freezer, dishwasher, wine cooler, and ovens comprising a combi oven, hob and instant hot water tap. Tucked in the corner is the utility room, which has been refitted by our clients to ancillary storage with integrated washing machine.

Upstairs has also been reconfigured from its original four double bedroom layout to provide a principal suite complete with dressing room/yoga suite, (which could be converted back to a fourth bedroom if required). Bespoke wardrobes offer plenty of storage. The master bedroom also features bespoke wardrobes, while the ensuite features a contemporary suite comprising shower cubicle, WC, wash hand basin and underfloor heating. The guest bedroom also benefits from fitted wardrobes, a bay window taking in panoramic views and ensuite shower room. A further double bedroom also features bespoke wardrobes, while the family bathroom comprises a bath, walk-in shower cubicle, WC, a wash hand basin set within a vanity unit and underfloor heating.

Outside - The front has been block paved to provide off-road parking for several vehicles bordered by an ironstone wall. Secure gated access leads through to the rear garden, where you could be forgiven for thinking you’re in the Mediterranean and not the Welland Valley, on bright sunny days. An extensive paved patio terrace sweeps round to an outdoor kitchen and dining terrace. Steps to the side lead up to raised lawn with glass balustrade. The garden studio/office is a further addition by the owners to offer a fully equipped space to work from home or to simply take in the countryside views. In addition, there are double power sockets to both the front and rear and a 16-amp socket for a hottub.

Location - Wilbarston is a popular Welland Valley village lying approximately five miles east of the thriving town of Market Harborough. The village is served by a primary school, public houses, village/community hall and recreational facilities. Further independent shops, boutiques, restaurants, and supermarkets can be found in Market Harborough, Uppingham, Corby and Kettering.
