A rare opportunity to acquire an attractively styled and substantially extended five-bedroom period semi-detached family home, occupying a generous plot in the highly sought-after village of Kirby Muxloe. Blending timeless character with tasteful modern upgrades, this beautifully presented home offers versatile living spaces and a thoughtfully reconfigured layout ideal for modern family life.

The property has been significantly improved by the current owners, most notably the transformation of the former lounge and kitchen diner into a superb open-plan living kitchen. This bright and spacious heart-of-the-home space features bespoke cabinetry, tiled flooring, a range-style cooker space, and French doors opening directly onto the rear garden—perfect for everyday family use and entertaining alike. A separate utility room provides additional storage and laundry facilities, while a modern ground floor shower room adds practicality.

To the front of the home, a cosy sitting room/snug offers a peaceful retreat with a feature fireplace, built-in seat with storage, and wood flooring, while the second reception room—currently used as study —adds flexibility for play, work, or relaxation. The welcoming entrance hall, with wood-panelled walls and quality flooring, sets the tone for the space and character found throughout.

Upstairs, the spacious landing leads to five well-proportioned bedrooms, each with its own individual charm. The principal bedroom enjoys rear garden views, while other rooms feature original picture rails and fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom is well-appointed with a panelled bath, pedestal basin, and wood flooring, and there's potential for further cosmetic enhancement if desired.

Outside, the rear garden is a true highlight—offering a large, mature space with split-level decked seating, a paved patio with gazebo, gravelled area, shaped lawn, and an abundance of established shrubs and trees, all combining to create a private and peaceful setting. To the front, there is ample gravelled off-road parking framed by mature planting.
