Description

Nestled within approximately 1.5 acres of private grounds, this substantial seven-bedroom residence in the sought-after locale of Bushby presents a unique investment opportunity. The property features a striking architectural presence and expansive gardens that provide remarkable potential for enhancement or redevelopment (subject to planning permissions). Enter through an impressive gated driveway and into a grand entrance hall that sets the tone for the spacious living areas beyond. This home is designed with dual entrance halls leading to multiple reception spaces, including a distinguished formal lounge and a sun-soaked garden room adorned with large curved windows, perfect for both family gatherings and entertaining. The heart of the home lies in its traditional breakfast kitchen, equipped with a walk-in pantry and seamlessly integrating with the dining area that boasts stunning views of the landscaped grounds. A practical utility room and additional bathroom facilities complement the main floor layout. On the first floor, five well-proportioned bedrooms await, two featuring en-suite bathrooms, including an elegant principal suite with a private balcony. The presence of a games room offers versatile space suitable for entertainment or fitness purposes, alongside an indulgent sauna for relaxation. The second floor provides additional flexibility with two more bedrooms and family bathroom facilities, ideal for various living arrangements such as guest suites or work-from-home setups. The property's exterior is equally impressive; the vast level gardens afford ample space for creative endeavors like landscaping projects or potential extensions (STPP). With over 6,900 sq ft of existing living space, there is significant scope to reimagine or refurbish this residence to suit modern tastes while retaining its classic charm. Bushby's appealing village atmosphere paired with easy access to Leicester ensures this property is not only a home but also a sound investment for future development.
