Description

A truly exceptional and lovingly crafted bespoke residence, set on one of Leicestershire's most coveted addresses. 77 Gartree Road is not simply a house. It is the product of an uncompromising vision, rebuilt from the ground up to an extraordinary standard that rarely presents itself to the open market. From the moment the electric gates part, the scale, quality and presence of this remarkable home become immediately apparent.

Extending to approximately 6,730 sq ft of beautifully appointed accommodation across three floors, this is a home conceived for modern family life without compromise. Seven bedrooms, five en suite shower rooms, a separate family bathroom, and a dedicated ground floor WC and boot room upon arrival. The configuration is as considered as the specification is impressive.

Ground Floor

Arrival is through a substantial entrance hall measuring almost 33 feet in length, an immediately commanding space that sets the tone for everything that follows. To the left, a generous lounge spanning over 19 feet by 17 feet provides a refined retreat, while the ground floor bedroom with its own en suite offers ideal flexibility for guests, extended family or multigenerational living. A separate sitting room, utility room, boot room and WC complete the practical ground floor offering.

At the heart of the home sits the extraordinary family room, a vast open plan space measuring an impressive 25 by 33 feet, flowing seamlessly into the kitchen which stretches to over 22 feet in width. This is the true engine room of the house, a space designed for the way families actually live: gathering, cooking, entertaining and relaxing under one roof, filled with natural light and anchored by the spectacular two metre gas fireplace. Air conditioning ensures comfort throughout the seasons. The integral double garage with automatic door connects directly to the home and measures a generous 19 by 17 feet.

One of the final touches remaining is the kitchen, presenting the new owner with a blank canvas to create the bespoke kitchen space of their dreams within an otherwise turnkey home.

First Floor

The American walnut staircase with wrought iron spindles rises to a truly spectacular landing, an expansive space at almost 32 by 35 feet, bathed in natural light through feature windows and providing a genuine sense of architectural occasion rarely found in residential property.

Six bedrooms are arranged across the first floor, each beautifully proportioned. Two principal bedroom suites each benefit from their own dedicated dressing room and private en suite, including one suite where the dressing room extends to over 10 feet by 17 feet. A further bedroom enjoys its own en suite, while two additional double bedrooms share a luxuriously appointed family bathroom. Every bathroom is finished with Porcelanosa porcelain tiling, Geberit flush systems and Pelipal vanity units with integrated LED lighting.

Second Floor

A seventh bedroom occupies the second floor alongside a WC and store room, creating a wonderfully private and versatile space. Perfect as a teenager's retreat, a home office suite, or a self contained guest room away from the main household.

Specification

Throughout the home, the specification has been assembled with exceptional care. Graspania porcelain tiles cover the ground floor. Triple glazed windows feature throughout. Underfloor heating runs across both ground and first floors with individual room thermostats. Three phase electricity supply and CAT 6 cabling in every room future proof the property for generations. The smart home system brings app controlled lighting, electric blinds, intercom and cameras together in one seamless platform. A comprehensive CCTV system with panic buttons and an app controlled alarm provide unrivalled security and peace of mind. Solid wall construction with full cavity insulation underpins the EPC B rating, a genuine reflection of the quality and integrity of the build.

Infrastructure is already in place, including hot and cold water, gas and drainage connections, for a future annexe or outbuilding should further space ever be desired.
Outside, the gardens have been landscaped to create a generous yet manageable private space, perfectly suited to family life and outdoor entertaining.

Location

Gartree Road is one of Oadby's most prestigious and sought after tree lined roads, widely regarded as among the finest addresses in the LE2 postcode and synonymous with substantial, high quality family homes of real standing.

The University of Leicester Botanic Garden, 16 acres of beautifully cultivated grounds founded in 1921, sits within easy reach, providing a remarkable green space and a place of quiet beauty on the doorstep. Leicester Racecourse, Parklands Leisure Centre and Glen Gorse Golf Club are also close by, providing excellent leisure and recreational variety for the whole family.

Oadby town centre on The Parade offers a great range of shops including Sainsbury's, Asda and Lidl, alongside pubs, restaurants and everyday conveniences. The fashionable independent boutiques, cafés and restaurants of Allandale Road and Francis Street in nearby Stoneygate are equally accessible, providing a more boutique daily experience.

For families, the schooling on offer is exceptional. Leicester Grammar School, Leicester High School for Girls, Stoneygate School and Beauchamp College are all within easy reach, alongside Gartree High School and Manor High School within Oadby itself.

Leicester city centre is less than three miles away, and Leicester Railway Station provides direct services to London St Pancras in just over an hour, making this an outstanding choice for commuters seeking space and quality without sacrificing connectivity. The A6, A563 ring road and M1 are all readily accessible.

This is a home of rare ambition, executed without compromise, in a location that needs no introduction. Opportunities of this calibre on Gartree Road are extraordinarily scarce.
