House For Sale £650,000
Offered to the market for the first time in 29 years, this incredibly spacious, extended family home offers all the accommodation a growing family would desire, and more, occupying a delightful position close to the canal and within easy access of the thriving town centre of Market Harborough.
Available with no onward chain, this impressive residence stands prominently at the head of this popular cul-de-sac, Northleigh Grove, which is a highly sought after road, particularly for houses like this and their position close to the Union Wharf canal basin, of which the property enjoys spectacular views over, from the rear.
Having been substantially extended twice in the time the present owners have lived here, the property offers five, or six, bedrooms, together with spacious living accommodation which has multiple reception rooms, perfect for a large family or owners who love to entertain.
As you enter this home through the central timber entrance door into the porch and through to the hallway, you can instantly sense the quality of this property which continues throughout. The hallway also offers a downstairs cloakroom and staircase rising to the first floor landing. Off to the left you will enter the spacious living room, with a large opening through to the dining room and a central fireplace housing a cast iron log burner forming a main focal point of the room. From the dining room, there is access directly into the kitchen diner, as well as glazed folding doors which open up a fantastic space directly into the sitting room. The kitchen itself has an attractive range of high quality, matching cream units with a generous amount of worktop surface space, integrated appliances, views over the garden, space for a dining table and large opening into the sitting room. The sitting room has a part vaulted ceiling, allowing an abundance of natural light to flood the rear of this home and there are French doors directly out to the garden patio. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a utility room, providing the perfect space to enter from the garden if you have enjoyed one of the many scenic walks which surround the area, for muddy shoes, or paws!
Rising to the upper floor, you arrive on to a bright and airy central landing, with vaulted ceiling and doors leading off to the rest of the accommodation. To the front lies the master bedroom, with ensuite shower room. Bedroom two, also at the front has had a wall removed separating what could easily become the sixth bedroom already having separate access, but currently makes a brilliant dressing room to this bedroom. The other three bedrooms are positioned across the rear of the property, enjoying views over the canal and a range of mature trees beyond. Last but not least, is the family bathroom, which whilst central on this floor, has a vaulted ceiling with Velux windows providing natural light.
Outside the home…
Externally, the property occupies a good plot, set back from the road with driveway providing off road parking to the front for at least three vehicles before steps rise to the covered storm porch entrance and integral garage. The garage has an up and over door from the front and offers a great amount of additional space, even if someone was to store a car in the front.
Gated access provides access onto the fully enclosed, landscaped rear garden. There is a full width paved patio, central steps rising to a well kept lawn, mature trees & borders with a further paved patio offering various entertaining spaces to enjoy as the sun moves across this westerly facing garden.
