Beacon Road, Loughborough, LE11

Behind the handsome bay fronted façade of this impressive Victorian villa lies a home that perfectly balances timeless character with contemporary living. Extending to approximately 2,020 square feet (plus a cellar) this is a home where period charm has been carefully respected whilst everyday family life has been thoughtfully enhanced.

Lovingly renovated by the current owner, every improvement has been made with the property's heritage in mind. From the replacement double glazed sash windows and beautifully chosen kitchen to the stylish bathroom, each addition complements the original architecture rather than competes with it. Throughout the home you will discover deep skirting boards, original stripped timber doors, elegant ceiling cornicing, high ceilings and a graceful staircase that immediately reminds you of the quality and craftsmanship synonymous with Victorian homes.

For the current owner, this has been the perfect family home. They have loved the ability to entertain friends, the generous proportions of every room, the unusually large mature garden and, perhaps most importantly, the convenience of being just a short stroll from Loughborough's range of shops, restaurants, cafés, schools and transport links.

The accommodation begins with an attractive entrance porch featuring original Minton tiled flooring before opening into a welcoming hall where the beautiful staircase creates an impressive first impression.

The elegant sitting room enjoys a wonderful walk-in bay window flooding the room with natural light, complemented by high ceilings, decorative cornicing and a feature fireplace with cast iron inset. An archway connects seamlessly to the second reception room, creating a superb flow for entertaining whilst double doors allow views towards the rear garden. Modern Victorian styled radiators have been carefully selected to remain sympathetic to the property's period style.

At the rear of the home is an outstanding dining kitchen, designed for modern family life. An extensive range of cabinetry is complemented by a charming corner Butler's pantry, double oven, integrated dishwasher and space for further appliances including a washing machine. Double doors open directly onto the terrace, effortlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living during the warmer months. Complementing the kitchen is a breakfast room where a substantial island provides the perfect gathering place for homework in the evening, drinks with friends or a workspace.

The first floor offers four generously proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys a beautiful outlook towards the garden with fitted recessed wardrobe whilst another spacious double is set to the front of the property. Two further well proportioned bedrooms complete this floor, many retaining attractive stripped timber flooring. The family bathroom has been beautifully appointed with elegant tiling, a panelled bath with rainfall shower over and quality contemporary fittings that perfectly reflect the character of the home.

The second floor provides an additional double bedroom, creating an ideal guest suite, teenage retreat or home office. The en-suite has hot water connected to the sink, although the Saniflo system for the WC and shower is currently not in working order

Outside, the property continues to impress. The traditional frontage is enclosed by attractive wrought iron railings, creating instant kerb appeal. To the rear, a generous paved terrace provides an excellent entertaining area before leading onto an exceptionally large mature lawn, something rarely found so close to Loughborough town centre. Established borders, mature planting and an attractive brick boundary walls create a wonderfully private garden that has been enjoyed by the family for many years. Shared side access leads conveniently to the front of the property.

Homes that combine authentic Victorian character, beautifully considered modern improvements, generous family accommodation and a substantial mature garden within walking distance of the town centre are a real treat. This is a great opportunity to acquire a truly elegant period home, ready to be enjoyed by its next custodians.
