This imposing, Four Bedroom Detached Property For Sale in Lilbourne sits within an exclusive development of just 8 houses on the outskirts of this popular Northamptonshire village.
Built 23 years ago by local builder John England, it's testament to the people and quality of the homes in Stonehouse Court is that only one of these houses have ever changed hands from new.
The current owners bought this lovely home off plan but requested a few modifications to the original layout. Originally designed as a five bedroom property, they chose to build it with just four, but in doing so created the most spectacular master bedroom suite.
The bedroom itself is an impressive 20' long and is complimented by a beautifully fitted dressing room as well as a glorious 16' ensuite bathroom with spa bath, double shower cubicle and 'His and Hers' wash basins. It really is the most luxurious and relaxing space for shear self-indulgence.
Clearly moved when telling me about her home, the owner recalls "It was our dream home that we'd worked so hard to get and I loved it from the moment we moved in".
The other three bedrooms, two doubles and one single are served by a further ensuite shower room and a family bathroom.
The ground floor is no less impressive. You are met by a generous entrance lobby that leads to an inviting reception hall. As well as a cloakroom leading off from here, access to the separate dining room to the front of the house, the kitchen, utility and lounge all lead from here.
The lounge sits underneath the master bedroom, so is another incredibly generous room - just under 30' long! Beautifully styled with their eclectic range of furniture, this room although big, remains cosy and comfortable and has been made even more so with the more recently installed beautiful and rustic brick fireplace with oak mantle and wood burning stove. In addition to the TV area this has made a lovely area to sit and read a book or to sit with a glass of wine and chat. Can you just imaging having Christmas here!
Double doors to the rear of the lounge lead to a lovely light and bright conservatory that enjoys wonderful views of the garden.
"This is a great room to entertain in. We've had some brilliant dinner parties, allowing us to be able to wonder in and out of the garden!"
The kitchen is well equipped with a central island unit and beautiful views over the garden. Adjacent is the utility room also providing access to the garden.
An inner hallway which leads off the lounge, provides access to a very useful office space – great with so many people now working from home, but tucked away enough to be unintrusive when not working. There is also pedestrian access into the double garage from this inner hall.
Now this house doesn't have the modern trappings of open plan living that some more contemporary homes do but this place is classy and sophisticated. It has high ceilings and generous rooms and a fabulous feeling of space. It's got, what I call 'great bones' with a substantial ground floor footprint, which allows plenty of space for all the family and a room for all occasions.
There are lots of opportunities to re jig things around if you want to, there is even space to extend if you need to, or you could simply enjoy it just as it is.
I love the setting of this house. The south facing position and wonderful size of the garden creates a beautiful place to sit and enjoy the surrounding countryside. Fields surround this mature garden which has been lovingly created over the years. A recent patio and barbeque area has been built to enjoy alfresco entertaining and a summer house can be used to relax yet still enjoy some shelter.
Wind Turbines are visible in the distance across the fields, which personally I find mesmerising, and the motorway beyond them. It's fair to acknowledge that there is a slight hum from the traffic depending on the wind direction, but this does not detract from the wonderful benefits of living in this lovely home as it really does have so much more to offer.
To the frontage, a sweeping 'in and out' driveway provides plenty of parking and allows access to the double garage – a great place for storage or hobbies – or you could even just park your car in it!
Lilbourne village is conveniently located about 5 miles away from Rugby with its wide range of shops and amenities and offers easy access for commuters to the M1, M6, A5 and A14. Rugby station is just over 3 miles away and operates mainline services to London Euston in under 58 minutes.
The village has a lovely sense of community which really came into its own during periods of lockdown when villagers kept a look out for their neighbours and made sure that everyone had everything they needed.
For families with children, there is a community minibus, which takes the younger children to the Primary school in Yelvertoft. It runs a periodic shopping service into Rugby and is available for private hire. Lilbourne also falls within the catchment area for the popular Guilsborough School.
