Refurbished home in rural hamlet standing in 5.1 acres and enjoying panoramic countryside views

Standing in open countryside in a quiet corner of North West Leicester, Botany Bay is a rare, six bedroom home with range of brick outbuildings. Purchased in 1923 and transformed beyond recognition this stunning home with no immediate neighbours is now available to the open market for the first in 100 years. Nestled in 5.1 acres of mature grounds close to Blackbrook Reservoir this 18th century home was subject to an extensive, back to brick renovation during 2017. Perfect for those looking to escape to the country, features of the accommodation include a large farmhouse style kitchen with Aga, three large reception rooms and four bathroom/shower rooms. A two-storey annexe, ideal as guest accommodation can operate independently or simply be absorbed into the main house if required.
