Description

Nestled within the picturesque landscape of Ulverscroft, this architect-designed six-bedroom detached home presents a unique opportunity for renovation or redevelopment in one of Leicestershire's most sought-after areas. While the current residence offers ample living space, it comes with full planning consent to demolish and construct a new expansive family home, boasting over 8,300 square feet of carefully considered design. Set on a generous two-acre plot, the potential for privacy and outdoor enjoyment is significant. The proposed new dwelling highlights modern living with features like a grand galleried reception hall and an open-plan living and dining kitchen that integrates seamlessly with additional reception areas, including a games room and drawing room. The architectural plans are available for review, providing insights into how this property can be transformed into a contemporary haven tailored to your preferences. Situated adjacent to the stunning Ulverscroft Nature Reserve, residents will benefit from direct access to 146 acres of rich wildlife and picturesque walking trails. The surrounding area is dotted with local attractions such as Stoneywell, Bradgate Park, and Beacon Hill Country Park - all contributing to a lifestyle immersed in nature. Handy amenities can be found in nearby villages like Woodhouse Eaves and Newton Linford, where charming shops and eateries add to the community’s appeal. For those commuting to larger cities, excellent transport links are readily accessible; both Loughborough and Leicester offer direct rail services to London St Pancras. Additionally, East Midlands Airport is conveniently located within easy reach. This property not only serves as a comfortable family home but also stands out as an investment opportunity for those looking to capitalize on its renovation potential. With mains water and electricity ready to be connected, along with easy access to major road networks including the M1 and M69, this site promises great accessibility while being set in an idyllic rural setting.
