Description
‘A spacious family house, in a leafy location’

Welcome to Uppingham Road, Bushby, Leicestershire. LE7 9RR

A spacious ground floor.

This large, family home has stature and presence. It is positioned at the head of a wide sweeping drive and front garden, and has a back drop of leafy shrubs and mature trees. The width of the house with its double fronted garage, feature windows and pitched roofs, presents as a home of distinctive style and size. This property has 0.54 acres of land and an impressive 2,400 square feet of floor space. There is land to the right hand side of the house, providing masses of potential for expansion or redevelopment. Indeed, there are few opportunities to purchase plots of this size within this popular locality.

Here, we have a four bedroom detached property with two en suites that has been styled to provide an expanse of contemporary living space, within a few steps of a modern, family friendly kitchen diner. It has all the flexibility that the luxury of space can offer for larger scale entertaining, while being bordered by generous grounds that offer a secure and private south facing garden.

The house is positioned on Uppingham Road, in the village of Bushby, within a 15 minute drive of Leicester. This is a substantial property in a fantastic location that has been maintained to a high standard.

Welcome inside

The sense of light, space and airiness are exemplified as the house is entered through a generous foyer that opens up into…space! This fantastic living/family room has windows on many sides allowing light to flood into the area. The room has oak hard wood parquet flooring throughout and has been modernised with flush ceiling light fixtures and white walls that allow a neutral canvas for multiple arrangements of furniture.

This large, relaxing room is beautifully proportioned and bright, overlooking and leading to the well cared for gardens and lawn area through patio doors that lead out under a screened porch, perfect for frost free gardening. There are a number of patios bordering the house, providing multiple options to enjoy shade or sun.

If we return to the foyer, a separate shower room to the left, provides a downstairs cloakroom facility and an impressive, carpeted staircase has been exposed to become a major feature of the room. It is fitted with distinctive metal balusters adding to the contemporary feel of the house. Everything has been chosen to provide crisp architectural lines and an atmosphere for modern, flexible living.

A practical haven

The kitchen is beautifully practical and tastefully stylish. A black and white palette has been chosen to compliment the splashbacks, floor tiles and cabinetry with silver metal accessories and taps. This open room is an impressive workspace. It has spacious fitted storage units, integrated appliances and central island unit, with sink and stool space for informal dining. The six ringed hob, double oven, fridge and freezer are all positioned to maximise efficiency. A recessed area provides a perfect position for a dining table, while at the opposite end there is another set of doors opening into the rear garden.

Next door we have the spice room or study or playroom or office or games room…the purpose of this additional room is up to you. However you choose to use this space, the ever essential and practical utility room is discreetly accessed from it. Coordinating cabinetry provides further useful storage, including space for a washing machine and tumble drier. The double garage can also be internally entered here.

To the first level

The carpeted staircase leads to a generous first floor hall. The primary bedroom is situated at the back of the house, with views over the garden. This spacious master bedroom has integrated wardrobes and en-suite bathroom with corner bath. There are three further bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes and another with an en suite shower room. The family bathroom provides the fourth bathing facility in this property. All fixture and fittings, suites and tiles, are coordinating and have been fitted and maintained to a high standard throughout this house.

Locality

Bushby is a village in central England, a region referred to as the East Midlands. It is situated approximately 4 miles south east of Leicester’s city centre and 23 miles south of Nottingham. It is in the LE7 postcode district and falls within the borough of Harborough. Oadby and Scraptoft are larger villages within a short distance. The M1 (junction 21, west towards Leicester Forest East) M6 and M69 maximise the potential for speedier travel by road from this central Midland location.

There are railway stations in Market Harborough and Leicester, where the Midland Main Railway Line runs trains to London – Leicester to St Pancras - regularly. There are normally 70 trains running daily to London, the fastest taking only 1 hour and 12 minutes.

Originally known as Butr or Butsi, the village’s name means a farm or settlement and has been an occupied area for centuries. It is closely linked with its parish neighbour Thurnby, and so much so that although the village pub is in Thurnby, the skittle alley belonging to the pub is in Bushby and had different opening hours!

Bushby maintains all the benefits of being within a short walk or car ride to town or country. So be it rural delights or the attractions of a city or market town, Bushby is ideally positioned. Many towns in the locality offer a variety of amenities such as edge of town super stores or uniquely bespoke shops, restaurants, sports venues, public houses, cafes and parks.

Although Bushby does not have schools, within the immediate locality of Thurnby there is St Luke’s Church of England Primary School. The Office for Standards in Education - ofsted – is best researched to provide a comprehensive review of currently rated standards of practice
