Chaveney Road, Quorn, LE12

A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully proportioned Edwardian home in one of Charnwood’s most desirable residential settings, combining all the charm and craftsmanship of its original period with a superb modern extension created for contemporary family life.

From the moment you step inside, there is a wonderful sense of character. High ceilings, deep skirting boards, decorative cornicing and large leaded windows immediately set the tone, while original details have been carefully retained throughout. There is even a working servants bell, a reminder of the home’s history.

At the heart of the house is the outstanding open plan living, dining and kitchen space, added as part of a thoughtful extension and designed to bring together family life, entertaining and the garden beyond. The handmade kitchen was installed by Dale Penny and is finished with stone flooring from Quorn Stone, integrated Siemens appliances, a warming drawer, fridge freezer, hob and dishwasher. Above, a large roof lantern floods the room with natural light, while wide bi-folding doors open directly onto the terrace and create a seamless connection with the garden during the warmer months.

The ground floor offers three separate reception spaces, providing an impressive degree of flexibility. The principal sitting room enjoys a large walk-in leaded window to the front, together with a wood burning stove set within the fireplace. Folding doors connect this room with the snug, which features fitted recessed cupboards and provides a relaxed second living space. The third reception room is a substantial study with a feature fireplace and cast iron inset, ideal for those working from home or simply wanting a quieter room away from the main living areas.

Both the snug and study connect beautifully with the open plan kitchen, helping the ground floor flow naturally from one space to the next. A separate utility room provides additional storage, plumbing for a washing machine, a second sink and houses the central heating boiler. There is also a ground floor cloakroom and stairs leading down to the cellar.

A return staircase, with a window at half landing level, rises to a particularly spacious first floor landing. Here, there are three generous double bedrooms.

The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect, a feature fireplace with cast iron inset and bespoke handmade wardrobes fitted into the recesses. The second bedroom is positioned to the front and also features a period fireplace, while the third overlooks the rear garden and benefits from fitted wardrobes.

The first floor shower room has underfloor heating and a large walk-in shower, creating a smart and practical space for everyday family life.

The accommodation continues to the second floor where there are two further substantial double bedrooms, one with a fireplace and recessed storage, together with a luxurious bathroom. This beautifully finished room includes a freestanding bath with telephone style shower attachment, a separate large shower enclosure, heated towel rail and underfloor heating.

Outside, the house enjoys a setting that feels both private and established. Mature hedging screens the frontage, while there is parking for several vehicles together with a single garage and gated access into the rear garden.

Immediately behind the house is a large paved terrace, perfectly positioned for outdoor dining and entertaining. Steps lead down to a deep lawn bordered by established planting, herbaceous borders and mature specimen trees. The garden enjoys an excellent degree of privacy and creates a wonderfully peaceful backdrop to the house.

One of the great attractions of this home is not simply the property itself, but its position within Quorn. The village remains one of the most sought after places to live in Charnwood, with a thriving centre, excellent pubs and restaurants, independent shops, cafés, schools, countryside walks and a genuine sense of community. It also offers convenient access to Loughborough, Leicester and the wider road network, making it particularly appealing to buyers looking for village life without sacrificing connectivity.

For families, Quorn offers the kind of lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find. You can walk into the village for dinner, enjoy countryside and woodland walks from the doorstep, take advantage of excellent local amenities and still be within easy reach of Loughborough and major transport links.

This is a home that successfully brings together two very different qualities. The proportions, craftsmanship and architectural detail of a handsome Edwardian house sit comfortably alongside a bright, sociable and beautifully designed modern living space. For buyers searching for a substantial family home in Quorn with genuine character, flexible accommodation, a superb garden and one of the village’s most desirable settings, this is an exceptional opportunity.
