House For Sale £2,750,000
An outstanding and contemporary village house designed with flare and extraordinary attention to detail on a stunning four acre plot in a prime Leicestershire village.
Ridgemere - Ridgemere is, without doubt, one of the most unusual and beautifully crafted and designed family homes seen in the writer's 35-year experience. The attention to detail and quality cannot be overstated.
Internally a wonderful hall and landing with a curved staircase sets the tone. The principal rooms of the house enjoy the sun from the south westerly aspect and leads directly onto outdoor entertaining spaces, which have been designed by award-winning landscape designer Ian Stubbs. The gardens afford complete privacy and lead via a series of exquisite gravel and cobble pathways to a rill and a large sunken terrace providing views over parklands.
To the front of the property is a large parking court, set amongst mature trees for added privacy leading to a show garage.
Internally the quality of the joinery is exceptional, with the bedroom cabinetry and the bespoke fitted kitchen by Moir Wade. This includes a gas fired Aga and a spectacular pantry and from a practical point of view a large utility and boot room which has independent access and provides great storage.
On the first and second floors are six bedrooms and four bathrooms with clever mezzanine dressing rooms.
Location - Gaddesby is a thriving village with many interesting properties of historical and architectural merit.
The village offers a very popular primary school, church and a public house and offers access to centres of employment and amenity in Leicester, Loughborough and Syston which caters for most day to day needs. There is excellent local schooling, of particular note is Oakham school which offers a minibus service from Gaddesby. Ratcliffe College is only 6.5 miles away
