House For Sale £725,000
Introducing Manor House – a stunning and sociable detached family home in the village of North Kilworth, surrounded by beautiful countryside. Constructed as part of the Briar Rose Close gated development in 2017, the property has been carefully designed to meet the needs of a modern family. Featuring five bedrooms, a striking hallway opening into three fantastic reception rooms, a high-end bespoke kitchen, and so much more, Manor House really is a treat to view.
Private & Exclusive
Pull through electric gates into an exclusive enclave, where you will locate this wonderful family home. Follow the shared block-paved driveway around to the side, arriving at a carport opening to the rear parking area, and a single garage with an up-and-over electric door, power and lighting, and garden access. Note that the garage also incorporates a boarded and insulated loft for extra storage, enhancing the garage’s potential as a workshop.
Contemporary Manor Living
Returning via a paved path to the front of the property, pause by the canopied entrance to admire the pretty front lawn – protected by low iron railings – at the foot of the Manor’s commanding red-brick exterior.
Step through into the hallway, where your attention is immediately captured by a gorgeous central staircase with fitted runner carpet rising from the highest-spec Amtico herringbone floor. The scenic lighting can be controlled to focus on artwork or photographs of those special family moments, ensuring an extra warm welcome home.
As you explore the house, bear in mind that most rooms include integrated Sonos ceiling speakers (all controllable from the wall switches or Sonos app downloadable onto any smartphone or tablet), fitted timer remote control blinds to the windows, and independently controllable designer LED recessed dimmer lighting. Cat 6 wired internet provides a fast and reliable connection throughout – ideal for busy families who work and play online. The house also comes with a satellite link and dish.
A Vaillant air source heat pump controls the ground level underfloor heating. It also runs the radiators to the first floor, which have individual thermostatic control, allowing everyone to live and sleep in comfort.
Relax Together
Follow the herringbone floor through glazed double doors into a bright living room extending along the left side of the house. With so much floor space to play with here, you could easily divide the room into separate zones to suit the whole family. The hollow chimney breast is designed to take a wood-burning stove – an excellent option to consider. French doors open onto the garden, granting delightful views over the neighbouring fields.
Returning to the hallway, find the formal dining room opposite, where the herringbone floor continues. Able to accommodate a table for ten illuminated by stylish hanging lights, and with French doors to the garden, there is nowhere better to host a dinner party that might just spill out onto the terrace. Alternatively, this room could be used as a second living room or snug.
A quiet study containing a low-maintenance laminate floor and ample usb ports sits to the front of the house, so you to work in peace while keeping an eye on the comings and goings of the rest of the household. The downstairs cloakroom, adjacent, is both conveniently placed and tastefully tiled, with a deep shelf provided for ornaments or luxury toiletries for guests.
Socialise in Style
Before you come to the fabulous kitchen, peer into the utility, which benefits from granite-topped units and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. With an easy to clean porcelain tiled floor, stainless steel sink, and side access, the utility will be the first port of call after a muddy woodland dog walk.
The kitchen itself juts out from the rear of the house, allowing light to pour through triple aspect windows and the terrace doors to illuminate the beautiful tiled floor. By the doors, a buffet table extends from a large central island, so you’ll likely find everyone hanging around in the kitchen at parties.
With a fantastic range of soft-closing units and drawers – topped with Sheridan slanted-edge granite worktops – that also wrap around the large central island, and upright pantry cupboards, you can store away the gadget collection of even the keenest cook.
Open a bottle from the wine fridge and get started on your next culinary creation, assisted by a host of Neff integrated appliances including two slide-and-hide ovens, steam oven and combination microwave, and an induction hob with attractive extractor. Clean up afterwards with the integrated dishwasher and a one-and-a-half bowl sink incorporating a food dispenser. There is also plumbing for an American fridge freezer to allow for filtered water.
Retreat Upstairs
Ascend to the first-floor landing, where you will find access to the part-boarded attic. First, head into the immaculate, carpeted master suite, parting the double-railed curtains and sliding back the doors to drink in the scenic country backdrop form the Juliette balcony. The TV area also has wired internet, so why not snuggle up and catch up on the latest boxset in peace?
Enjoy further solitude in the part-tiled Roca en suite, which features Karndean flooring, heated towel rail, his & hers basin units with back-lit mirror, and a double walk-in shower with rainfall head. Bedroom five has been opened into the master to create a private dressing room, but it could be reverted to a fifth bedroom or even be used as a nursery if desired.
Bedroom two incorporates fitted wardrobes and an en suite boasting a double walk-in shower – the perfect haven for guests or older children. The third and fourth bedrooms feature TV points with wired internet, with bedroom three currently used as a functional second study.
A Garden with a View
Step out onto a sandstone paved terrace ripe for al fresco dining or casual summer BBQs, with a low enclosing fence revealing those sweeping country vistas. Three Pre-prepared flower beds containing a weed membrane and bark chippings to protect the good-quality soil border the well-proportioned lawn. A block-paved rear drive – drainage system included – offers additional parking, while a paved path runs along the side.
A Lovely Location
The friendly village of North Kilworth is nestled in the Harborough district of south Leicestershire, close to several major towns and cities – with the A4304 granting quick access to the wider motorway network and trains from Rugby connecting to London Euston within an hour.
The surrounding countryside provides miles of walks through woodland and along the canal or the marina. Alternatively, nip out for a stroll across the Millennium Green for some fresh air. The White Lion pub, petrol station/store, and a post office also lie within walking distance.
Other amenities include a café and tea room, sports and golf club, church, and Ofsted-rated Good primary school. A fantastic range of independent schooling can be found in Rugby and scattered around the region, so you’ll never be short of choice when it comes to your children’s education.
