Description
Presented by Harry Singh – Fine & Country
Nestled discreetly behind electronic gates in the heart of the sought-after village of Kibworth Harcourt lies Hill Brow – a distinguished and beautifully refurbished family home set within an expansive and private plot. Brimming with character, original features, and timeless design, this exceptional residence offers the rare blend of village charm with modern versatility.
A Grand Welcome
Approached via a sweeping driveway of paving and gravel, the entrance to Hill Brow is nothing short of impressive. Step through the front door into an elegant hallway where a sweeping staircase, adorned with ornate balustrades and spindles, sets the tone for the refinement found throughout the home.
To the left, a snug and stylish sitting room invites relaxation, complete with a feature gas burner and acoustic front-facing window. This leads seamlessly into the open-plan kitchen and dining space, the beating heart of the home—flooded with light from dual elevations. Fitted with quartz worktops, a generous island, integrated appliances and an adjoining utility room, it is a setting as suited to weekday comfort as it is to weekend entertaining.
A second formal reception room exudes grandeur with its ornate fireplace, soft carpet underfoot, and elegant glazed doors leading to a sun-drenched conservatory—an ideal sanctuary for morning coffees or evening wind-downs.
Upstairs Serenity
Rising to the first floor, the principal suite is a haven of indulgence, featuring a walk-in dressing area, garden views, and a luxurious en-suite with high-end fittings. Four further bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged across the floor—each radiating warmth and character, and three benefitting from charming garden or village views. A fifth bedroom enjoys its own en-suite, while the beautifully appointed family bathroom offers a jacuzzi bath, separate shower, and vanity fittings wrapped in stylish tiling.
A Versatile Lower Ground & Hidden Potential
Discreetly accessed from the rear, the basement level is a beautifully finished, flexible space—ideal as a private cinema room, office, or quiet retreat.
Gardens, Outbuildings & Opportunity
Outside, the home continues to impress. A detached 45ft workshop, complete with solar panels, presents myriad possibilities—be it as a home office, gym, studio, or business base. Further, a split-level barn with a garage and separate room offers scope for conversion into a self-contained annexe (subject to planning).
Crucially, a planning application has already been approved to convert an existing outbuilding into an independent dwelling. Looking ahead, the new dwelling could, if desired, be separated from the main house—subject to any further planning applications and consents—creating a compelling multigenerational or investment opportunity.
The gardens, thoughtfully landscaped and planted, frame the house with beauty and seclusion. A charming rear courtyard, additional parking areas, and acoustic windows to the front ensure the utmost in privacy and peace.
