The Old Inn, Coleorton

Smiths Property Experts are delighted to offer to the market this impressive period family home, formerly a Coaching Inn, following a comprehensive recent remodelling.

Set in grounds extending to approximately 1/3 of an acre with open views to the front, the property is located in the beautiful village of Coloerton. The house is not listed and boasts a wealth of period features and originality, combined with high ceilings and modern furnishings. The layout includes a beautiful new open-plan living area with a shaker-style kitchen fitted by deVOL.

With a generous gross floor area of circa 3,414 square feet (including a cellar and garaging), expect to find a rarely available blend of spacious, flexible living space, mature gardens, and character throughout. The property is offered to the market with no upward chain.

Internally, the generous accommodation is laid out over three floors, with additional cellar space. The interiors benefit from an abundance of light, with views to the front and rear. There are three main reception areas, including a beautiful open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area with garden views, a separate dining room, and a sitting room. There is also a useful downstairs WC.

Upstairs, in the main part of the house, are four large double bedrooms and two bathrooms. Two further bedrooms and a newly installed shower room are accessed via a secondary staircase from the kitchen. The nature of the upstairs accommodation lends itself particularly well to multigenerational living.

Having been substantially remodelled over the past 18 months, the property is particularly well insulated, double-glazed throughout and has a modern boiler, all aimed at keeping energy costs down.

The property is set behind a private parking area to the front and has an integrated double garage to the side with an electrically operated door and a utility area to the back wall.

To the rear are beautiful lawned gardens, benefiting from a sunny aspect and a high degree of privacy throughout. The lawns are tiered and flanked by mature borders and hedgerows, and there is a raised entertaining terrace and summer house at the top of the garden. In addition, there is a delightful walled courtyard, accessed through French doors in the kitchen, that would make a super al fresco entertaining area.

The property enjoys a wonderful position, set behind a private parking area with a beautiful, newly rendered late Georgian facade. Located in the North West Leicestershire village of Coleorton, there are countryside walks on the doorstep, and a range of services including good public houses and excellent road access to the nearby market towns of Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Loughborough and Coalville.
