Main Street, Leicester, LE8

Occupying a delightful position within the highly sought-after South Leicestershire village of Willoughby Waterleys, Sycamore House is an exceptional modern detached residence offering beautifully proportioned family accommodation, impeccably presented interiors and a wonderful setting surrounded by rolling countryside. The village is renowned for its network of scenic footpaths and bridleways, providing endless opportunities to enjoy the surrounding landscape whilst remaining within easy reach of daily amenities, and major road and rail links.

Designed with modern family living in mind, the property has been finished to an outstanding standard throughout, with elegant interiors professionally designed by the former Harlequin Interiors, creating a home that perfectly balances style, comfort and practicality.

The property is entered via an impressive front-to-rear reception hallway, where a striking picture window frames views of the rear garden and floods the space with natural light. Large enough to serve as an elegant formal dining area, the hallway creates an immediate sense of space and offers access to a useful cloaks cupboard and guest cloakroom.

The beautifully proportioned dual-aspect lounge is a wonderfully inviting reception room, featuring attractive oak flooring, a contemporary wood-burning stove forming an attractive focal point and French doors opening onto the rear terrace, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor living spaces.

A second reception room provides excellent versatility and is currently arranged as a cosy snug, although it would be equally suited as a home office or children's playroom.

At the heart of the home is a stunning contemporary dining kitchen overlooking the rear garden. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, it features a substantial central island with casual seating, an extensive range of modern cabinetry and a comprehensive selection of integrated NEFF appliances. French doors open directly onto the terrace, while an internal door provides convenient access to the double garage.

A beautiful dog-leg staircase rises to a spacious galleried landing, leading to four generous double bedrooms. The principal suite benefits from fitted wardrobes and a spacious ensuite shower room, while two further bedrooms also enjoy their own contemporary ensuite shower rooms. One features fitted wardrobes, whilst another is enhanced by an impressive floor-to-ceiling picture window overlooking the rear garden and neighbouring paddock land. The fourth double bedroom also includes fitted wardrobes and is served by a luxurious five-piece family bathroom.

Externally, the property enjoys an attractive street presence behind a walled front garden. A double-width driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to the detached double garage, complete with electric up-and-over door and electric vehicle charging point.

To the rear, the landscaped garden has been designed with ease of maintenance in mind, offering a generous paved terrace immediately adjoining the house. Perfectly positioned for al fresco dining, entertaining or simply enjoying a morning coffee, the garden provides a peaceful and private setting with an attractive outlook towards neighbouring paddock land beyond.

Combining exceptional presentation, generous proportions and a highly desirable village location, Sycamore House represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a beautifully appointed family home in one of South Leicestershire's most sought-after rural settings.
