House For Sale £625,000
Are you on the lookout for a contemporary detached family home with bundles of space and style in a vibrant village on the outskirts of Leicester? Then this stunning house on Curzon Avenue, tucked on the Soar Valley side of Loughborough Road, could be your dream property.
Featuring five bedrooms, including a master suite with walk-in dressing room and a second en suite, off-street parking and garage, and an immaculate kitchen and breakfast room with separate dining room, large front-facing sitting room and a beautiful conservatory opening onto an extensive, landscaped garden, this really is the perfect modern home.
A Peaceful Residential Area
Turn into Curzon Avenue – a wide road where smart detached houses sit well back from the street. Note that just beyond lies School Lane, where you will find open playing fields for walking the dog or for your children to play.
Pull past the wrought-iron fence onto a tarmacked driveway edged with block paving and partly screened from neighbours by neat hedging. While there is enough space for a couple of cars here, the integral garage provides additional secure parking and workshop potential. An internal door from the garage connects into the rear snug and inner hallway, so you can head straight to work warm and dry on those wet winter mornings.
High-end Design
Inside, this wonderful home has been thoroughly modernised and decorated to an exceptional standard, which is evident as soon as you step through the front door into a gleaming hallway reminiscent of a luxury hotel. From the white-painted, turned staircase with plush carpet and the polished marble-effect floor tiles, to the high, coved ceiling with chandelier light fitting, it’s a reception space that certainly makes a striking impression.
Tucked beside the stairs, you will find a convenient cloakroom where you can freshen up before taking the door on the left side of the hallway that opens into a fantastic, family-friendly sitting room. This great entertaining and play space is dominated by a large box bay window that illuminates the soft carpet underfoot. The elegant simplicity here provides you with the opportunity to add decorative touches that suit your taste, so you can relax with your loved ones while watching your favourite programmes on your wall-mounted TV.
From here, double doors open into an inner hall with storage connecting to the spot-lit snug behind the garage, which provides rear access to the garden. The inner hall also connects via a walkthrough into the spectacular conservatory, allowing you to open the whole area up for summer parties. The conservatory benefits from a pitched glazed roof, windows and French doors to the garden, drawing in light and greenery, while walls to either side and underfloor heating ensure you can use this space year-round.
Wine & Dine in Style
The right side of the property is devoted to socialising and entertaining. The area is split between an exemplary l-shaped kitchen and breakfast room in the centre, a formal dining room to the front, and a utility area and downstairs shower room to the rear.
Access the kitchen straight ahead from the hallway, where you will find a range of white wall and base units topped with black granite conveniently laid out in the galley-style. The glossy black theme continues in the splashback that wraps around the worksurfaces and behind the gas hob, which has an extractor unit over.
Other integrated appliances include an inset sink to match the worktops with dishwasher under, oven and microwave, and a nook for an American-style fridge-freezer surrounded by further storage. There is also an additional walk-in pantry, and a good-size casual dining area tucked around the corner. From here, a door opens to the dining room, which has windows to two aspects.
The rear lobby – reached via the kitchen or from the garden – leads straight into a utility with storage and space for appliances, and a shower room with WC.
Boutique Bedrooms
Take the turned staircase to a bright and fresh first-floor landing. A few more steps lead up to toward the fully tiled family bathroom, which incorporates a beautiful claw-foot roll-top bath (with handheld shower attachment) beneath the large, obscured window with fitted blind. A glass-screened double shower with rainfall showerhead, square basin vanity unit, and loo complete this ultra-modern retreat.
Straight ahead from the steps, the master suite awaits your admiration. This generous double features coved ceilings, plush carpet, in-build storage and an incredible walk-in dressing room, which has been kitted out with double mirrored wardrobes. Here you can access the en suite, which boasts black-and-white tiling, a corner shower, vanity unit and loo.
The carpeted and spot-lit second bedroom lies adjacent to the master and features large windows overlooking the extensive garden. It contains in-built storage and a gorgeously decorated en suite including a shower with rainfall head – ideal for guests.
Three further bedrooms complete the accommodation, two of which come with integrated storage. You could also use the fifth bedroom as a study.
Step Outside
The garden is divided between a raised paved terrace with railings and steps down onto a further patio and shed, and a long, enclosed lawn bordered by hedges and trees. While easy-to-maintain, the garden has lots of potential for keen gardeners to get stuck in while the kids blow off some stream racing up and down the lawn. You can just imagine some fabulous summer picnics and BBQs happening here, with the conservatory acting as a pleasant retreat during the evening.
Out & About
Birstall is a bustling village in the borough of Charnwood, just 3 miles north of Leicester, and contains two supermarkets, a garden centre and a variety of other shops. Why not stop by the historic White Horse Pub, which dates back to the time the canal was constructed, before heading out to explore the series of lakes and country parks in the bottom of the nearby Soar Valley?
There are several well-regarded schools in the area, such as the Ofsted-rated Good Highcliffe Primary School, Riverside Primary School and The Cedars Academy. Independents include Darul Uloom Leicester, Ratcliffe College, and a scattering of private educational institutions in and around Leicester, accessed quickly via the A6. Trains from Leicester run to London St Pancreas in around 75 minutes – perfect for commuters. EPC: E
