Brook Street, Wymeswold

Smiths Property Experts offer to the market this exceptional four-bedroom period family home, set on approximately one-third of an acre with beautiful south-facing gardens, located on the highly sought-after Brook Street in Wymeswold.

The property is finished to an exacting specification and presented in ‘move-in’ condition, having been lovingly restored and upgraded by both the previous and current owners. Conveniently positioned, it offers excellent access to the cities of Nottingham and Leicester, and to the market towns of Loughborough and Melton Mowbray.

The property also benefits from energy-efficient improvements, including aluminium triple-glazed windows, 3.85 kW/h solar panels, a Tesla Powerwall 2 battery, and a Pod Point car charger.

The property is in excellent, modernised condition, featuring powder-coated aluminium triple-glazed windows throughout and finished with Monocouche render. The accommodation, including the cellar, extends to approximately 3, 042 square feet, excluding the detached tandem garage.

The interiors are carefully designed, combining period features thought to be from the 17th century with high-quality fixtures and fittings, including a handmade kitchen by the renowned ‘Dale Penney’. In brief, the accommodation comprises a spacious entrance hall, a study, and two reception rooms, currently laid out as a family room/snug and a sitting room, each with exposed beams, a working stove fireplace and bi-fold doors leading to the rear seating terrace and gardens. There is also a WC/utility room.

A particular feature of the living space is a truly special split-level kitchen and dining area. The kitchen features in-frame shaker-style cabinetry with a larder unit, and bi-fold doors that open to a private courtyard. The high-specification appliances include a fridge freezer and dishwasher by Fisher & Paykel, a Rangemaster range cooker, and a Quooker tap. The suspended mezzanine offers an intimate formal dining space. There is also a useful working cellar accessible from the kitchen.

Upstairs are four impressive double bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom suite. There are two individual bedroom suites, both with distinct character and providing built-in wardrobes/dressing rooms and en-suite facilities.

The property is nestled on Brook Street, elevated behind a spacious block paved driveway with off-road parking for multiple vehicles. There is a delightful flagstone-laid front terrace leading from the kitchen, as well as a bin store.

Of note is the modern detached garage, tandem length and wider than usual. The garage houses the battery storage, has hardwood joinery, is insulated, and has an electric vehicle charger, power, lighting, and a hot and cold tap. Secure gated access leads to the rear and formal gardens.

The rear gardens extend to roughly one-fifth of an acre and offer total privacy and a south-facing aspect. A generous flagstone-laid terrace wraps around the back of the main house, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. The gardens are extensive, lawned in large part with landscaped paths and various seating areas. The borders and beds are mature and well-stocked. There are several high-quality outbuildings, including a summer house, greenhouse, and newly constructed garden store. To the very end of the gardens is a working area, stocked with fruit trees and raised borders ideal for vegetable growing or propagation.
