Description

Set within the exclusive and highly sought-after Stretton Hall development on the edge of Oadby and Great Glen, 51 Chestnut Drive is a substantial and elegantly appointed five-bedroom executive home offering over 3,800 square feet of versatile living space. Occupying a gated and exceptionally private plot of approximately a quarter of an acre, this prestigious residence showcases impressive kerb appeal, luxurious interiors, beautifully landscaped gardens, and a detached triple garage with additional accommodation above.

On entering the home, a split staircase immediately makes a statement, rising to a grand galleried landing that looks over the light-filled entrance hall. From here, you’re guided into a series of beautifully styled reception spaces including a formal lounge with a feature fireplace, a bay-fronted sitting room, a refined dining room with curved glazing and garden outlooks, and two substantial conservatories that extend the living and entertaining space with views and access to the landscaped rear gardens.

The contemporary kitchen diner is a centrepiece of the home, equipped with sleek gloss cabinetry, premium marble-effect worktops, a generous central island, and quality integrated appliances including a range cooker. Underfloor heating runs throughout the kitchen and dining area, which opens through French doors to the patio for seamless entertaining. A separate utility room provides additional practicality and is finished to the same high standard.

Upstairs, the galleried landing offers access to five well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal suite benefits from built-in wardrobes, a modern en suite, and access to a full-width balcony with serene views over the front approach. The additional bedrooms are served by further stylishly updated bathrooms, each finished with premium tiling and modern fittings.

Outside, the plot extends to beautifully landscaped rear gardens with manicured lawns, a large entertaining patio, and a charming pergola seating area. A block-paved driveway to the front provides ample parking and leads to the detached triple garage. Two bays remain in use as a spacious double garage, while the third has been converted into an outdoor kitchen or secure storage area. Above the garage, a fully built first floor room offers flexible potential as a games room, office or guest lounge.

This exceptional family home offers the perfect blend of grandeur, comfort and practicality in one of Leicester’s most desirable neighbourhoods. With outstanding schools, amenities and countryside walks nearby, 51 Chestnut Drive is a rare opportunity to acquire a landmark property in an elite setting.
