High Street, Quorn, LE12

There are homes close to the centre of Quorn, and then there are homes where the village is quite literally on your doorstep.

Set right in the heart of one of Charnwood’s most sought after villages, this exceptional home offers a lifestyle that is unique. Quorn’s independent shops, cafés, restaurants, wine bars and traditional pubs are just moments away. Yet behind its attractive façade is something altogether unexpected.

The internal specification is outstanding. There is off street parking for two vehicles. There is a garage / workshop. There is even a separate air conditioned home office or gym. For a home in the very centre of Quorn, that combination is incredibly rare.

Inside, the property has been transformed into a beautifully finished contemporary home where considerable thought has been given to materials, craftsmanship and the details that make everyday living that little bit better.

The homeowner and guests alike will normally enter from the rear, either through the wooden side gate or down the cobble-stone path and steps. Upon entering the dining and kitchen area you are greeted with a light filled space through to the front of the property, some 10m in depth.

The kitchen has bespoke handmade cabinetry by David Attenborough and is complemented by seamless composite work surfaces and an excellent collection of integrated appliances. These include a Neff double oven and microwave, Neff induction hob and extractor, Samsung fridge freezer and Miele dishwasher. There is a Blanco sink together with a Quooker tap providing instant hot water and filtered drinking water, integrated waste bins and plantation shutters. Hot water underfloor heating runs beneath the kitchen floor and into the dining area, with control via Thermostat and WiFi. A pantry / storage area is provided under the stairs and a there’s a handy utility cupboard for both a washing machine and tumble dryer.

The kitchen flows into a wonderfully light extended dining area, where double doors open onto the patio and create an easy connection between inside and out. There is also an exceptionally stylish ground floor shower room, providing a WC and wash basin together with a separate shower featuring both an overhead shower and handheld attachment.

The main living room boasts dual entry from front and rear, providing a semi open-plan feel, managing to be both sophisticated and comfortable. Its dual aspect brings in plenty of natural light, with plantation shutters to the front and double doors opening onto the courtyard at the rear, allowing the living and dining spaces to connect particularly well during the warmer months. Canadian oak flooring laid traditionally over battens gives the room warmth and character, while a sandstone fireplace sits upon an impressive feature wall. The contemporary wood burning stove creates a natural focal point while column radiators with both thermostat and WiFi control provide an alternate source of warmth.

Upstairs, the attention to detail continues. A cloakroom space is provided at the bottom of the stylish stairway and landing.

There are three generously proportioned double bedrooms. Two are positioned to the front of the house and feature plantation shutters, premium carpeting and column radiators. One is currently used as a dressing room and benefits from an excellent fitted wardrobe space with a substantial walk-in wardrobe or storage over the stairs. This room could easily accommodate a double bed if a section of fitted wardrobe were removed. Access via a sliding door optimises available floor space. The rear bedroom enjoys a particularly lovely outlook towards the village church, a wonderful reminder of just how central the house is to village life. Again, premium carpeting provides a luxurious touch.

The bathroom wouldn't feel out of place in a boutique hotel. Finished to an exceptionally high standard, it incorporates a large walk-in double shower alongside a freestanding bath, wash basin and WC. Electric underfloor heating adds a further touch of luxury, while a cleverly concealed sliding door makes excellent use of the space.

Outside is where this home delivers another surprise. The rear can be approached via the shared access or side pathway, opening into a garden that provides a combination of patio, lawn and established beds. A beautiful historic granite wall runs along the boundary, adding a wonderful sense of character and permanence to the outside space. There is a block paved driveway providing the all important off street parking for two vehicles, something that is particularly valuable in such a central village location.

The traditional cobble-stone path leads to steps down to the patio. And then there is the outbuilding. Substantial and incredibly useful, it incorporates a garage / workshop with a fitted workbench, power, lighting and a resin floor. A remote controlled up-and-over door provides easy access while a boarded roof space provides additional storage. Alongside it is a completely separate room currently providing a home gym and office, with ample power points, lighting, WiFi connectivity and Samsung air conditioning that can itself be controlled via WiFi. This is a genuine year round working or exercise space rather than simply a converted garden building. For anyone working from home, it provides the rare luxury of leaving the house and going to work without actually leaving the property.

But perhaps the greatest luxury here is the lifestyle. Quorn has long been regarded as one of Charnwood’s most desirable villages, combining a genuine community with an unusually strong selection of places to eat, drink and socialise. Independent shops, cafés, restaurants, pubs and wine bars create a thriving village centre, while schools, countryside walks and excellent connections to Loughborough and the wider road network add to its appeal. Living here means being able to leave the car at home and walk out for morning coffee, meet friends for dinner, enjoy a drink in the village or simply wander home after an evening out. And unlike so many properties occupying such central village positions, you don't have to compromise on parking, garaging, outside space or somewhere to work from home.

ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING CHECKS

 In accordance with Anti Money Laundering laws including the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002, The Terrorism Act 2000, The Money Laundering Regulations 2017 and the Bribery Act 2010 we are required to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all clients selling or buying a property. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Hipla via their online portal once you have had an offer accepted on a property. The cost of these checks is £25 (incl. VAT) per person, which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us issuing a memorandum of sale, directly to Hipla, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Hipla to compensate for our role in the provision of these checks.
