Aspen Close, Great Glen, Leicester, Leicestershire, LE8

This very well presented and appointed four bedroom detached family home occupies a plot within a sought after Cul-de-Sac position on the outskirts of Great Glen. The accommodation is light, spacious and design to complement modern family living and working. The village itself has a long history dating back to the Iron Age but in more recent times has become a popular commuter village of the A6 connecting Leicester to Market Harborough. The excellent road links are ideal for those who do commute but the home provides plenty of options for those that work from home. The village is also the location of the very highly regarded Leicester Grammar School and within the catchment for the schools in Oadby which also have impressive reputations. A plethora of local amenities are readily accessible and for those enjoying the outdoors, open countryside within walking distance.

Access to the home is via an eye-catching front door sheltered by an open porch which opens to a generous and welcoming entrance hall. The hallway has a central staircase rising to the first floor, an under stairs storage cupboard and off the hall is a ground floor WC and wash hand basin.

The main lounge is a pleasing dual aspect room filled with plenty of natural light as a result of a window to the rear of the home and a set of French patio doors that open to the patio and garden. The lounge is one of two reception rooms with the other being a dining room which has ample space for large table and chairs and ideal for family meals. The home also benefits from a separate study/office which is a versatile additional room that as well as a great working space could equally be a play or games room for children or even a little snug.

The kitchen has a modern range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with a high-gloss finish, roll-edge work surfaces and a one and a half bowl stainless steel sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include a gas hob with extractor over, built-in eye-level electric oven and adjacent fridge/freezer. There is also a dishwasher. Next door to the kitchen is a separate utility room which has a sink unit and space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

The first floor is as attractively presented and tastefully decorated as the ground floor. The principal bedroom is the largest of four double bedrooms and benefits from an en-suite shower room and a built-in double wardrobe. The second bedroom is another space enjoying a dual aspect and the third bedroom has a delightful half panelled feature wall. The fourth bedroom could be used as a dressing room or another work space if not required as a bedroom day-to-day. These bedrooms are serviced by a fully tiled and refitted family bathroom. The bathroom comprises a bath with rainforest shower over, low flush WC and a wash hand basin set onto a wall mounted vanity unit.

To the outside, a driveway to the side of the home provides off-road parking as well as direct car access to a detached garage with a pitched roof, offering useful additional storage, light and power.

At the rear is a relatively low maintenance garden including a paved patio seating area, where drinks in the sun can be enjoyed and friends entertained. A lawn provides space for children to play all enclosed by tall timber panel fencing.

This is a wonderful family home within a desirable village location. Internal viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate the space and versatility it offers, the quality of presentation and the wide ranging appeal it holds.

The Village of Great Glen lies off the A6 between the suburb of Oadby and the neighbouring village of Kibworth. Ideally positioned for commuters travelling into Leicester the village is a highly sought after residential area. Offering a range of local shops and three public houses the village is the location for the highly regarded Leicester Grammar School as well as the Church of England St Cuthbert’s Primary School.
