Groby Lane, Newtown Linford, Leicestershire

Beautifully situated in one of Newtown Linford’s most sought after lanes, this individually designed home offers a rare chance to create something truly special. Built in 1953 and thoughtfully positioned to capture sweeping views over Bradgate Park, the property combines striking architectural character with an exceptional half acre plot, a canvas for both restoration and future vision.

Location - Newtown Linford is a thriving Charnwood village, renowned for the charm and character of the traditional housing stock, and its strong sense of community centred around a public house and parish church. Local shopping is available nearby within Anstey and Groby, and excellent schooling in both the state and private sector, including the Loughborough endowed schools. There are many countryside walks and beauty spots close by including Bradgate Park which is of national importance. The area is well served by motorway networks with M1 intersection points at Markfield and Nottingham East Midlands Airport.

Accommodation - The house is set back behind mature gardens, providing a sense of privacy and tranquility from the moment you arrive. Inside, the split level layout unfolds with a light-filled and versatile flow starting with a bright garden and dining room that captures the morning light. From here, a central hallway with the home’s signature 1950s staircase leads to a well proportioned sitting room with dual aspect windows and a central fireplace. A sliding door opens directly onto the rear garden, while the adjacent kitchen (complete with walk in pantry) overlooks the outdoor spaces and offers scope to be combined with the sitting room for a more open plan layout. A study completes this floor, offering versatility for family living or home working. A lower ground floor provides an oversized integral garage, utility space and gardener’s WC with direct access to the garden.

To the first floor, three generously sized double bedrooms are filled with natural light, alongside two bathrooms and a separate WC. The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect and its own balcony, the perfect vantage point to soak in uninterrupted views of the park’s rolling landscape.

Outside - Occupying around half an acre, the gardens have been lovingly established over generations. The front garden is mostly laid to lawn, framed by mature trees and shrubs for privacy, with a generous driveway providing ample parking. To the rear, west-facing formal lawns merge into meadow areas, interspersed with seating spots, an ornamental pond, and a striking Atlantic Cedar that stands as a centrepiece while open fields beyond the boundary create a peaceful rural outlook.
