Set within a highly sought-after position between Clarendon Park and Stoneygate, this fully renovated, detached five-bedroom home unfolds across three generous and light-filled floors. Every element has been meticulously considered, where minimalist design meets cutting-edge technology to create a house that balances elegance, efficiency and everyday comfort.

The exterior presents a striking monochrome façade, finished in eco-friendly Accoya cladding that offers exceptional durability with minimal maintenance. Security and peace of mind are paramount, with a bespoke intruder alarm, CCTV system, camera doorbell and intercom seamlessly integrated. Two highly insulated aluminium external doors, achieving a U-value of 0.90 W/sq.mK and fitted with Ultion 3-star locks, provide Secure By Design protection while enhancing thermal performance. Energy efficiency is woven throughout the fabric of the house. Triple-glazed fixed flat roof-lights illuminate the front and rear ground floor extensions, while triple-glazed Velux roof windows punctuate the upper level. Internorm triple-glazed windows with I-tec Secure locking technology ensure excellent insulation, acoustic comfort and security. The garage, extending to approximately 12 sq. metres, is fitted with an electric double-skinned steel Ryterna sectional door, offering impressive thermal insulation and security credentials.

To the rear, a minimalist porcelain-tiled patio of approximately 40 sq. metres enjoys east and south-facing aspects and opens onto a secluded 145 sq. metre garden. Enclosed by mature trees and high wooden fencing, the garden offers privacy and tranquillity rarely found in such a central location. The ground floor has been designed for modern family living, combining performance and elegance. Underfloor heating runs throughout, controlled via individual digital thermostats across four zones. Spanish porcelain tiles provide a refined yet durable surface, while nearly 50 sq. metres of open-plan living and dining space connects seamlessly to the garden through a 3.6-metre triple-glazed Internorm sliding door, allowing natural light to travel effortlessly from east to west. Integrated mosquito nets discreetly housed within the aluminium window frames add thoughtful seasonal practicality.

The kitchen and breakfast area is fitted with Dekton worktops, fully integrated Siemens appliances and bespoke cabinetry finished in dark grey for a clean, contemporary aesthetic. A separate utility room offers practical storage and laundry facilities with direct access to the side of the property. A well-appointed ground floor bathroom features Hansgrohe ShowerSelect fittings, a wall-mounted shower, Roca rimless sanitary-ware, a lacquered cabinet and fitted mirror. The hallway benefits from a second triple-glazed aluminium door, enhancing insulation, security and brightness, while under-stair cabinetry discreetly houses a 24-port Gigabit network switch. Cat6 Ethernet wiring runs throughout the house, complemented by a state-of-the-art mesh Wi-Fi system on each floor. A front extension creates a welcoming porch and a bright, generous entrance to the home.

The first floor is arranged around four well-proportioned bedrooms, each designed for comfort and functionality, with high-quality fitted wardrobes and integrated bookcases. Energy-efficient Apollo Modena aluminium radiators are installed throughout, all controllable manually or remotely via the Honeywell Evohome smart system. The family bathroom is finished to an exceptional standard, featuring a large Kaldewei steel bathtub, Hansgrohe ShowerSelect fittings, Roca rimless toilet, a seamless Silestone basin and countertop, and a bespoke lacquered vanity unit with ample storage.

Occupying the top floor, the principal suite forms a private retreat. The east-facing bedroom is fitted with triple-glazed Internorm windows incorporating electric anti-heat and anti-cold roller shutters for optimal comfort and privacy. Approximately 18 sq. metres of walk-in wardrobe space has been fitted with high-end, minimalist cabinetry. Six triple-glazed Velux roof windows, facing north and south, flood the space with natural light and offer expansive views across the surrounding area. The en-suite bathroom is finished with a Hansgrohe Rainfinity overhead shower featuring PowderRain technology, a Hansgrohe ShowerSelect mixer, a bespoke in-wall storage niche, Roca rimless sanitary-ware, Silestone basin and countertop, and a contemporary lacquered vanity unit. Apollo Modena radiators serve the bedroom, wardrobe and en-suite, all integrated into the Honeywell Evohome smart control system located on this floor.

Further highlights include a driveway with space for two vehicles, complemented by an untethered Easee EV charger mounted beside the garage. The property sits within a quiet cul-de-sac, with additional free parking available nearby. Clarendon Park and London Road are just a ten-minute walk away, while the University of Leicester and Leicester Royal Infirmary can be reached on foot within 20 to 30 minutes. Extending to approximately 238.7 sq. metres (2,569.6 sq. feet), this is a home of rare quality and clarity of design. More than a contemporary residence, it is a carefully composed statement of modern living — ideal for families or professionals seeking security, efficiency and calm sophistication in one of Leicester’s most desirable neighbourhoods.
