Built in the 1930s and beautifully, sympathetically renovated to the highest standards, this is an outstanding property. When you pull up outside and park on the walled, gravelled driveway alongside the garage, first impressions of this impressive family home with all its red-brick splendour will take your breath away…



Knighton has been a prime spot for hundreds of years, and still gives the air of village life - with many original buildings and the historic village core a designated conservation area. Its proximity to Stoneygate, Oadby and Wigston has placed it with good reason as an extremely favoured location within Leicestershire - its juxtaposition to a wealth of leisure, medical and recreational facilities provide all amenities at a stone’s throw. Transport links are also excellent, with superb bus routes, easy access to rail links and proximity to motorways. Whether at the start of their schooling or further down the line, educational establishments are outstanding. Overdale infant and primary school are both close by, as are Leicester Prep, Leicester High and Leicester Grammar School, Sir Jonathan North Community College, Lancaster High School for boys whilst Beauchamp College and the University of Leicester are a stone’s throw away. Sitting in the most sought-after Leicestershire postcode, and with Leicester city centre a mere two-mile journey (and City mainline rail connections to London taking approximately 1 hour), that commute is one thing less to worry about. It really does have it all here.



The original porched front door opens onto the stunning wooden floors of the entrance hall, accessing the living room, sitting room and open concept kitchen/dining area. A utility room and WC round out the rooms on the ground floor.



Light, bright and dressed in its classical best, classic charm comes wrapped in contemporary, practical living. This home is fully refurbished, restoring the elegant features of the period whilst adding all the mod cons you could wish for.



Step through into the living room, with its stunning feature fireplace and original features enveloped in neutral decor. It’s the perfect spot for relaxing, entertaining and cosy nights in. The beautifully big bay window shares views directly over the front of the property, bringing in the natural light and a wonderful feeling of a timeless space.



The sitting room is also accessed from the hallway and is next to the kitchen/dining area, making it easy to keep an eye on everyone. This room is light, bright and full of more classic style – a brilliant space for movie night, games night or simply some quiet time. Another bay window with patio doors opens onto the glorious rear garden, bringing with it dappled natural light and the option to bring the outside, in.



The spacious and practical kitchen/dining area has been designed with the finer things in mind. Nestled into the shaker-style units are top of the range appliances and clever storage solutions are found throughout the space. It’s a cool, sociable room which family and friends naturally gravitate to. The dining area is filled with natural light courtesy of the huge windows and beautiful tiled floors run throughout. There is room for a dining table, allowing those elegant dinner parties and celebrations to run late into the night. The breakfast bar keeps things fuss-free, as does the utility room - and with direct access to the rear garden, this space is perfect for modern family life.



Travelling up the original staircase brings you to the first floor. Again, the feeling of light and space is impressive, and those period features are complemented by the tasteful décor.



The spacious and sophisticated master bedroom takes things to the next level, with fitted wardrobes capable of sustaining even the most dedicated follower of fashion. The generous bay window (a mirror of the one directly below) lets in oodles of light and the views over the front of the property and beyond are just lovely.



Peep through into bedroom two, with its sizable window and tasteful interior design – the perfect tranquil space to bed down for the night. Bedroom three, with its views over the rear garden and built-in storage makes the perfect nursery or child’s bedroom, whilst bedroom four overlooking the front of the property could be another bedroom or perhaps that home office you require.



Across the landing, the fully tiled family bathroom with soaker tub and separate shower is ready to handle the busiest of mornings – and the adjoining WC provides even more practicality to this family home.



The outside of this remarkable home is just as impressive as the inside. There is something for everyone - whether that’s playtime on the grass, relaxing in the sunshine with a good book and a glass of wine, or entertaining friends and family on the patio. The landscaped garden is a restful and calming space, surrounded by neighbouring trees. It is easy to immerse into the mindfulness brought by the sensitive planting and elegantly thought through landscaping. Enjoy a slice of the Good Life within this fantastic four-bedroom family property.
