Located within the highly regarded village of Burton Overy, this exceptional period home is where timeless character meets contemporary comfort.

Previously configured as a five/six bedroom, the versatile and beautifully presented accommodation boasts a wealth of character features including fireplaces, exposed brickwork, beamed ceilings and log burners.

Location - This picturesque south Leicestershire conservation village is without doubt one of the most sought-after locations within the County. Very convenient for Leicester some seven miles to the north, Market Harborough and Great Glen, Burton Overy retains its rural charm and remains a working farming community with very little through traffic.

The village itself has a dairy for milk, bread and cakes, an active church congregation, a well-liked public house and a village hall with nearby Great Glen providing local amenities catering for all day-to-day needs including some of the finest schooling within the County offering education from ages 3 to 18. Shopping and supermarket facilities are available in Oadby, Fosse Park and the thriving town of Market Harborough with mainline rail services to London St Pancras in under an hour.

Accommodation - The property is entered via an oak-framed storm porch leading into a generous entrance hall with exposed brickwork and oak flooring, housing a graceful dogleg staircase. From here, the accommodation unfolds beautifully. A triple-aspect reception room, bathed in natural light and warmed by a gas stove offers superb versatility. The formal sitting room boasts a striking exposed chimneybreast with an inset wood-burning stove. The elegant dining room is perfectly positioned to link the living spaces with the impressive kitchen.

The heart of this stunning home is the beautiful open-plan living/dining kitchen with windows overlooking the gardens. This fantastic, bright space boasts an excellent range of bespoke eye and base level units and drawers with ample preparation surfaces, a Belfast sink with mixer tap and high quality integrated appliances including a double oven and Aga. A large central island unit provides dining space, whilst a living area with a wood-burning stove provides an area to relax and access via French doors to the garden and a spiral staircase to the first floor. The ground floor also includes a utility room and cloakroom.

The first floor offers a flexible and intuitive layout. To the front are two generous double bedrooms served by a family bathroom and separate shower room. The luxurious master bedroom is filled with natural light via a Juliet balcony and enjoys an en-suite with both a freestanding bath and a walk-in shower, and an adjoining dressing room (possible further bedroom) with bespoke built-in wardrobes. A further large versatile room (with additional access from the kitchen) would be perfect either as another bedroom, hobbies room or study, with the master en-suite as a Jack-and-Jill bathroom.

Outside - The property has a feature cobbled frontage and paved steps leading to the storm porch and front door. A block-paved driveway provides off-road parking and access via electric timber gates to a further secure parking area and a paved seating area.

The rear garden is a true delight: private, expertly landscaped and designed with a series of charming seating areas, a neat circular lawn and a formal gravelled dining space. A large brick store and a covered dining area further elevate this wonderful outdoor space, making it ideal for entertaining.
