Description

Presented to the market for the first time in over two decades, this substantial detached residence is located on one of Oadby's most prestigious avenues. Known as 'Windrush', the property is set within a generous plot that features mature landscaping and an attractive in-and-out driveway flanked by established trees and brick piers. The house boasts an impressive architectural style with over 4,000 sq ft of living space spread across two floors, complemented by a south-facing garden and a triple garage. This property holds considerable potential for renovation or extending existing spaces. Upon entering, you are greeted by a grand hall with oak flooring and an elegant marble staircase, creating an inviting first impression. The interiors feature spacious rooms enhanced by decorative details like bespoke ironwork and skirting-level heating. A range of interlinked reception areas flows into a full-length conservatory, allowing natural light to fill these generous spaces throughout the day. The kitchen and breakfast area serve as a central hub equipped with custom cabinetry, integrated appliances, plus a large larder for practical storage solutions. Adjacent utility and boiler rooms maintain functionality while keeping clutter at bay. Additionally, there’s a versatile study that could adapt to various needs—perfect for both work-from-home situations or casual living. The first floor hosts four ample bedrooms accessible from a wide galleried landing; the principal suite is particularly noteworthy with its own dressing area and luxurious en suite bathroom finished in marble. Two more bedrooms benefit from en suite facilities, while the remaining bedrooms share a spacious family bathroom along with additional WC conveniences. There's also potential to repurpose built-in storage areas as additional bedrooms if desired. The outdoor space is equally remarkable with a thoughtfully crafted south-facing garden designed for privacy and seasonal appeal. Mature hedges frame the lawn area which leads seamlessly onto the terrace directly from the conservatory—a perfect spot for outdoor gatherings. A substantial triple garage provides ample storage options alongside workshop facilities and extra WC amenities. Considering that fully renovated homes on this sought-after street can reach above £2,000,000 in value, 'Windrush' presents an excellent opportunity to invest in personalization projects that could yield significant returns on investment once refurbished. Offered without upward chain complications and all inquiries managed through our Partner Gianfranco Paparozzi.
