Flaxland, Rothley, Leicester, LE7 7RJ

A stunning kitchen extension to the rear of this family home adds real wow factor to this beautifully presented four-bedroom detached property, quietly positioned off Garland in Rothley.

Entering the property, you are greeted by a spacious entrance hallway with French doors opening into a magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space. A glazed door leads through to the family sitting room, while a cloakroom with WC and a useful under-stairs storage cupboard complete the ground floor entrance area.

The cloakroom features a wash hand basin, WC, double-glazed window, and radiator.

The family sitting room is a lovely, bright space with a double-glazed window to the front aspect and French doors opening out to the south-west facing rear garden. A gas fireplace with an attractive surround provides a charming focal point.

In 2015, the current owners extended and redesigned the kitchen at a cost of around £70,000, doubling its size to create a truly impressive open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area — now the heart of the home. A substantial roof lantern floods the space with natural light, complemented by large picture windows to the rear and side, as well as French doors leading directly to the patio and garden.

This fabulous open-plan kitchen diner features matching tiled flooring throughout and a substantial central island as the room’s main focal point. The island provides excellent storage and includes pop-up power points with USB connections. The kitchen offers a comprehensive range of wall and base units, sink and drainer, integrated dishwasher, double oven with hob and cooker hood. A separate utility room provides additional space with plumbing for a washing machine, a sink and drainer, wall shelving, and access to the rear garden via a glazed door.

Upstairs, the first floor offers four bedrooms, including an ensuite to the principal bedroom, and a modern family bathroom. The landing features a double-glazed window to the front aspect and an attractive galleried design overlooking the hallway below.

The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a double-glazed window overlooking the rear garden. The ensuite shower room has been refitted to a high standard, featuring a double-sized shower cubicle, heated towel rail, wash hand basin with vanity unit, WC, and a double-glazed window.

Bedroom two is another generous double room overlooking the rear garden, while bedroom three also offers double proportions, fitted wardrobes, and a dressing table with views over the front. Bedroom four is a well-sized single, ideal as a child’s room or home office, with a front-facing double-glazed window.

The family bathroom comprises a white suite with shower over bath, shower screen, WC, wash hand basin, airing cupboard, radiator, and double-glazed window.

Externally, the rear garden enjoys a sunny south-facing aspect and excellent privacy, featuring a large patio area ideal for entertaining, and well-established conifers and shrubs.

To the front, the property sits well back from the road, with an attractive lawned garden, mature flowerbeds, and a spacious driveway providing ample off-road parking and access to a double garage. The garage benefits from an electric up-and-over door, power, and lighting.

Overall, this superb four-bedroom detached family home combines generous living space with a stunning rear extension and south-facing garden, all set within a peaceful cul-de-sac location in Rothley.
