Digby Close, Tilton On The Hill, LE7

Set within a quiet residential setting on the edge of the popular village of Tilton, this well-presented home offers a combination of generous accommodation, attractive outdoor space and a particularly pleasant connection with the surrounding countryside.

The house has been thoughtfully updated by the current owners over the years, creating a comfortable and versatile home that is ready to enjoy, while still offering scope for a new owner to put their own stamp on it. The position is especially appealing, with countryside walks close at hand and the village itself offering a strong sense of community, with a village shop, pub and church all forming part of everyday life.

The entrance hall provides a welcoming introduction to the house, with a useful downstairs WC positioned just off the hallway.

The living room is a comfortable and inviting space, centred around a wood-burning stove and with patio doors opening directly beneath the garden pergola. This creates a lovely connection between the house and garden, particularly in the warmer months when the pergola provides an attractive setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.

The separate dining room is positioned towards the rear of the property and enjoys a pleasant outlook over the garden. Having a dedicated dining room separate from the main living space gives the house a good degree of flexibility for both everyday family life and entertaining.

The kitchen is well equipped with an electric oven, grill and hob, with space for a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. To the rear, the kitchen opens into a particularly bright area beneath a vaulted ceiling, where three Velux roof lights bring plenty of natural light into the space and enhance the sense of openness.

Upstairs, the property provides four bedrooms, offering considerable flexibility for modern family life. The fourth bedroom is currently used as a study by the owners, but works equally well as a bedroom, home office, dressing room or hobby space depending on the needs of the next owner. The remaining bedrooms provide a good range of accommodation, complemented by the family bathroom.

The garden is a real feature of the property. Facing east, with an open southerly aspect, it enjoys good levels of sunshine throughout the day and provides a pleasant outdoor space in which to relax, dine and entertain.

The garden is largely private and has been thoughtfully arranged, with the pergola creating an appealing covered seating and dining area immediately outside the living room. There is plenty of space beyond this for lawn, planting and further seating, giving the garden a good balance of practicality and enjoyment.

To the front, there is driveway parking leading to a large garage, providing useful additional space for parking, storage or hobbies.

Tilton is a well-established Leicestershire village surrounded by attractive countryside, with a good selection of local walks and open space nearby. The village itself has a shop, pub and church, while the strong community spirit is something particularly appreciated by the current owners.

The property is also well placed for access to both Leicester and Oakham, making it a practical choice for those wanting a quieter village setting without being too far removed from larger towns and their wider range of amenities.

As the vendors put it:

“It’s a really nice place to live, with a good group chat for lending, selling, lost pets and community events. The church, pub and shop are at the heart of things.”
