The Bank, Arnesby, LE8

A spacious and beautifully maintained detached home, built by renowned local builder John Littlejohn, set within a private cul-de-sac of just five executive homes in the heart of the sought-after village of Arnesby, South Leicestershire.

This well-appointed property offers generous accommodation across two floors, with gas central heating, UPVC double glazing, ample off-road parking, and a double garage. A particular highlight is the adjoining orchard which expands the plot and enhances the property’s idyllic rural lifestyle.

The ground floor accommodation is introduced by a spacious and welcoming entrance hallway, complete with wood-effect flooring, a built-in cloak cupboard, and a guest WC. To the left, the principal lounge runs the full depth of the house, beautifully lit by a walk-in bay window to the front and French doors to the rear garden. A contemporary wood burning stove creates a warm and inviting focal point, making this a comfortable space year-round.

The formal dining room offers the perfect setting for entertaining, with space for a six-seater table and a bay window seat that adds charm and character. Adjacent is the well-appointed breakfast kitchen, fitted with hand-painted solid oak cabinetry, granite worktops, a Rangemaster stove and integrated fridge. A built-in breakfast table provides casual dining space, while the Rangemaster stove completes the country-style kitchen.

From the kitchen, a separate utility room with an integrated freezer also offers space and plumbing for laundry appliances and additional storage. To the rear of the house, a generous conservatory with underfloor heating provides a versatile living space, filled with natural light and opening onto the garden via French doors.

The galleried landing gives access to four well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom.

The principal bedroom is a spacious and thoughtfully designed suite, benefitting from a range of fitted wardrobes and a generous en suite, finished with a stylish four-piece suite comprising a double shower, vanity wash basin, WC, and bidet.

Bedroom two is another large double room, also featuring fitted wardrobes, while bedroom three enjoys a bright aspect overlooking the front garden. Bedroom four offers flexibility as a smaller double or comfortable single, ideal for use as a guest room or home office.

The family bathroom is fully tiled and presented in a modern style, fitted with a sleek white suite including a P-shaped bath with shower over, vanity wash basin, and low-level WC.

The established gardens wrap around the rear and side of the home and have been thoughtfully landscaped to create separate areas for relaxation and enjoyment.

There are two lawned sections with well-stocked borders, a garden shed, composting area, and multiple seating areas – including a patio by the conservatory and a pergola-covered terrace. A rose arch and feature wall add charm and interest to the space.

A timber fence opens into the orchard — a delightful extension of the garden. Enclosed by mature hedging and home to a selection of established fruit trees, this peaceful area offers further space to enjoy the outdoors or explore small-scale growing opportunities.

To the front, a block-paved driveway provides off-road parking for up to four vehicles and leads to a double garage with eaves storage.
