Description
Wilkins Estate Agents are proud to offer to the market this exceptional and truly unique four-bedroom detached residence, perfectly positioned within a tranquil, private cul-de-sac in the highly desirable village of Appleby Magna. This remarkable home occupies an enviable corner plot, offering complete privacy and panoramic open-field views that stretch as far as the eye can see. From every angle, this home exudes peace, space, and refined luxury — making it a rare opportunity for families seeking a perfect blend of rural charm and contemporary comfort.
As you approach the property, the first impression is one of quality and exclusivity. The large, block-paved driveway comfortably accommodates multiple vehicles and leads to an integral double garage, seamlessly integrated into the property’s design. The quiet cul-de-sac setting ensures no through traffic, offering a safe and serene environment rarely found in such accessible locations. The home’s striking façade, generous plot, and mature surroundings offer a sense of arrival that is both impressive and welcoming.
Stepping inside, you are immediately greeted by a bright, spacious entrance hallway, finished to an exceptional standard. The attention to detail is immediately apparent: solid oak internal doors, tasteful decor, and premium flooring set a luxurious tone that continues throughout the entire property. The hallway acts as the central artery of the home, offering a clear line of sight through to the rear garden and inviting a sense of openness and flow.
To the right of the hallway lies the formal living room — an inviting and beautifully balanced space that perfectly combines character and comfort. Here, rich real wood flooring lends warmth and sophistication, while a bespoke, handmade fireplace serves as the focal point of the room. Thoughtfully designed windows and glazed doors frame the garden beyond, flooding the space with natural light and allowing uninterrupted views over the private outdoor space and fields beyond. This is a room equally suited to relaxed family evenings or refined entertaining, where classic style meets modern function.
Opposite, to the left of the hallway, is the true heart of the home: a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining, and family living space designed with modern lifestyles in mind. The kitchen has been carefully crafted to combine aesthetics with practicality, featuring a large central island that acts as a social and functional hub. Sleek, high-gloss cabinetry, integrated premium appliances, and expansive worktops create a kitchen that is as beautiful as it is practical. Whether hosting a lively dinner party or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, this space adapts effortlessly to the moment.
The open-plan layout ensures a seamless connection between kitchen, dining, and lounge areas, allowing for both formal and informal living. Large French doors open directly onto the rear patio, bringing the outside in and providing an ideal setting for al fresco dining or summer entertaining. Natural light pours in from every angle, and the expansive layout creates a constant sense of calm and openness — all while maintaining a strong sense of home and warmth.
Also on the ground floor is a stylish cloakroom with WC and a spacious utility room, located discreetly off the main living area. The utility space is perfectly equipped for laundry and additional storage, helping to maintain the clean, uncluttered aesthetic that defines this home.
Ascending the bespoke, real oak staircase, you arrive at a generously proportioned landing that provides access to four spacious double bedrooms. The design upstairs continues the luxurious theme of the ground floor, with soft neutral tones, plush carpets, and an emphasis on space and light. Every room has been designed to accommodate modern family life, with plenty of room for storage, furnishings, and individual style.
The principal bedroom is a private and serene retreat, offering ample space for a king-size bed and additional furniture, as well as stunning rear views across the open countryside. It benefits from a sleek and stylish en-suite shower room finished with high-end fittings, tiled walls, and contemporary fixtures, creating a hotel-style experience within the home.
The three additional bedrooms are all generously sized doubles, ideal for children, guests, or use as a home office or hobby room. Each is filled with natural light and offers complete flexibility to meet the changing needs of a growing household.
The main family bathroom is a standout feature of the home, designed to evoke a spa-like atmosphere. A stunning freestanding bathtub sits beneath a large window, while a separate walk-in shower offers everyday practicality. High-quality tiling, modern lighting, and luxurious finishes complete the space, creating a bathroom that feels both indulgent and practical.
Outside, the property continues to impress. The rear garden is entirely private and thoughtfully landscaped to balance functionality and beauty. A spacious patio area offers the ideal setting for outdoor seating and dining, while the lush lawn provides ample space for children to play or pets to roam. The garden backs directly onto open fields, offering a sense of connection to nature that is both rare and highly sought after. Whether watching the sunrise with a morning coffee or enjoying a glass of wine as the sun sets over the countryside, the views from this garden are truly spectacular.
Further practical benefits include the integral double garage, which offers internal access and could easily serve as a workshop or be converted to additional living space. The driveway, which accommodates several vehicles, ensures the home remains functional for even the busiest of families.
Throughout, the property is finished to an incredibly high specification, with solid oak doors, high-end fixtures and fittings, and meticulous attention to detail in every corner. The design achieves a seamless balance of rustic charm and modern sophistication — a “country-modern” aesthetic that feels warm, inviting, and endlessly stylish.
The property also offers superb potential to extend to the rear or even over the garage, providing more space and room for multi-generational living.
Positioned in Appleby Magna — a village renowned for its peaceful rural setting, strong community spirit, and excellent transport links — this property offers an unparalleled quality of life. Just moments from local schools, village amenities, and major routes such as the A42, M42, and A444, it offers countryside living without isolation. Nearby market towns such as Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Measham provide further amenities, while nearby walks and bridleways offer the perfect backdrop for weekend adventures.
