Chapel Lane, Stoke Albany, LE16

Tucked away on a quiet lane within the picturesque village of Stoke Albany, this characterful 1920’s detached home has been sympathetically modernised and extended, giving you the charm of an older property but with all the modern comforts of a spacious family home. With three double bedrooms, including a superb loft conversion, wraparound gardens and even a multi purpose garden room that is perfect for working from home or as extra accommodation.

Stepping inside through the arched front door you’re welcomed by a spacious hallway, complete with hardwood flooring and a timber staircase leading to the first floor. Situated to the front is the dining room, full of period character with a bay window, open fireplace and original picture rails. The spacious living room is equally inviting, accessible through glazed double doors from the hall, a cosy place to relax with log burning stove, hardwood floor and French doors opening to the gardens.

The kitchen diner is a real highlight, flooded with natural light thanks to plenty of windows and bi-folding doors out to one of the patio areas. There’s plenty of room for a dining table, while the shaker style timber units, oak worktops, Belfast sink and built in appliances complete the other end of the space. A handy utility sits just outside through a covered canopy, with space and plumbing for laundry appliances.

Moving upstairs to the first floor, the main bedroom is a generous space with enough room for a super king sized bed, fitted wardrobes and a dressing table. Whilst the second bedroom looks out over the garden at the rear and is also a very comfortable double room. The recently refitted family bathroom has an attractive suite with rain shower, wc, large basin and a heated towel rail. From the landing, a staircase leads up to the second floor where you’ll find the third double bedroom in the original loft space, a large room with Velux and side windows. From here you can enjoy the most amazing countryside views and even further eaves storage.

Externally to the front, the house looks every inch the classic 1920’s residence, framed by a stone wall and laurel hedge for privacy. A gravel driveway sweeps up, offering parking for three cars, and there’s even a vegetable patch! The wraparound rear gardens are a real delight, offering different areas to enjoy throughout the day. To one side is a large patio ideal for outdoor dining, while steps lead to the lawn and mature borders. Hugging the rear is a fantastic canopy, allowing shelter for entertaining all year round! On the opposite side is an additional sunny patio, a greenhouse and timber shed, plus access to the superb garden room.

This detached garden room has been cleverly designed, currently used as a business space but equally suited as a guest suite, home office. It comes complete with its own heating, air-conditioning, kitchenette and shower room, plus French doors opening straight out to the garden.

Stoke Albany itself has a welcoming pub, church and village hall, while nearby Wilbarston adds a shop and post office. Countryside walks are on your doorstep, and Market Harborough is accessible within 10–15 minutes by car, offering great amenities and mainline rail links to London.
