Description

Welcome to The Old Coach House, a beautifully renovated three-bedroom detached home nestled within The Firs, an exclusive gated development known for its peaceful surroundings, sense of community, and well-managed grounds. Blending timeless character with modern comfort, this former coach house retains elegant period features while offering a thoughtfully updated interior.

Inside, the home offers two inviting reception rooms ideal for both relaxed family living and entertaining. At the heart of the home is the charming kitchen, where an original inglenook fireplace makes a striking focal point and hints at the property’s rich history. A separate utility room and downstairs WC add convenience to the ground floor layout.

Upstairs, a spacious landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms, including two generous doubles and a comfortable single. The principal bedroom enjoys the added luxury of an en-suite shower room, while a stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

To the rear, the secure and private garden offers a tranquil outdoor retreat, not overlooked and perfect for alfresco dining or simply unwinding. A detached garage and off-road parking complete the picture, providing both practicality and privacy.

Perfectly positioned just a short drive from Syston town centre and Thurmaston shopping centre, and with quick access to the A46, this is an ideal base for commuters who don’t want to compromise on charm, space, or location.

A rare opportunity to own a slice of local history with modern-day comfort — early viewing is highly recommended.

Please note, as this property is within a gated community there is a managed freehold service charge circa £1,000 per annum.
